Sewell's Stellar Stock Picks: Lucky or Loaded?

Alabama's own Congresswoman Terri Sewell (D-Birmingham) might be having a very merry holiday season. Why? She's apparently crushing it in the stock market, according to a year-end analysis of congressional trades.

Top Trader Alert!

Unusual Whales, the market watchdog crew, dropped their 2025 Congressional Trading Report, and guess who landed near the top? Sewell's portfolio reportedly exploded with a +67.9% return! That puts her in third place among all members of Congress. Not too shabby, eh?

Smarter Than the Market?

To put that into perspective, the S&P 500 only saw a +16.8% jump during the same period. So, either Sewell's got some serious investing skills, or something else is at play.

Beating the Odds

Only two lawmakers managed to snag a higher return: Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio) with a rocking +79% and Rep. Donald Norcross (D-New Jersey) at approximately +71%. Sewell's in good (and suspiciously profitable) company!

Active Trader in the House

The report also labels Sewell as an "active trader," meaning she wasn't just sitting on old investments. She was actively buying and selling stocks throughout 2025.

Tech Titan Gains

Public filings reveal some key buys: Apple (AAPL) and NVIDIA (NVDA). These two tech giants were major players in the market's AI boom in 2025. Coincidence? We'll let you decide.

Power Player

Sewell's a big deal on Capitol Hill, serving on the House Ways and Means Committee with choice assignments on Oversight, Social Security, and Trade. So, yeah, she's got influence...and apparently, a knack for picking stocks.
