When a member of Congress who happens to be the best stock picker on Capitol Hill goes shopping, it's probably worth a look at his cart. Rep. Tim Moore of North Carolina, who reportedly gained 52% on his trades in 2025, has been active again. A new disclosure shows he spent March loading up on a few specific small-cap stocks.
Here’s the breakdown of his transactions for the month, as compiled from public data:
- March 23: Bought $15,000 to $50,000 in Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores (CBRL) shares.
- March 20: Bought $15,000 to $50,000 in LGI Homes Inc (LGIH) shares.
- March 19: Bought $50,000 to $100,000 in LGI Homes shares.
- March 18: Bought $15,000 to $50,000 in LGI Homes shares.
- March 17: Sold $15,000 to $50,000 in Krispy Kreme Inc (DNUT) shares.
- March 13: Bought $1,000 to $15,000 in The Simply Good Foods Company (SMPL) shares.
- March 12: Bought $15,000 to $50,000 in Harley-Davidson (HOG) shares.
- March 12: Bought $15,000 to $50,000 in LGI Homes shares.
- March 12: Bought $1,000 to $15,000 in The Simply Good Foods Company shares.
The clear standout here is LGI Homes. Moore made four separate purchases of the Texas-based homebuilder's stock within nine days, committing a total of $95,000 to $250,000. This is a company with a market cap of about $884 million, and frankly, it hasn't been having a great run. The stock is down 7.5% year-to-date in 2026 and has plummeted 44% over the last year.
Its recent financial performance has been mixed, to put it kindly. According to market data, LGI Homes has missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in five of the last 10 quarters and has missed revenue estimates in seven of the last 10. So, Moore isn't exactly buying into a roaring success story. He's also traded this name before, buying $30,000 to $100,000 worth in October and November of 2025 and selling a chunk worth $50,000 to $100,000 that same November.
The other new additions are also in the small-cap realm. Simply Good Foods, the company behind brands like Quest, has a market cap of $1.33 billion. Moore bought it twice in March. He also picked up shares of the iconic motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson and made a new purchase of Cracker Barrel, a stock he also traded in 2025. The lone sale was his position in Krispy Kreme.
This activity fits a pattern for Moore. Before he was crowned Congress's top trader for 2025 by data firm Quiver Quantitative—handily beating the S&P 500's 16.6% gain—he was already on the radar for targeting smaller companies. Past disclosures have shown him buying shares of biotech firm Genprex (GNPX) and Hyster-Yale Inc (HY), a lift truck maker with a market cap around $680 million.
There's no inside information here, just a public record of what a very successful congressional investor is doing with his own money. Given his past returns and his apparent focus on smaller, potentially overlooked companies, his latest moves are certainly worth a look for anyone interested in what the pros—or in this case, the politicians—are buying.
