Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi recently disclosed new stock and options trades made back in July. The trades, which totaled millions of dollars, are already paying off, with one of the newest stocks added to her portfolio soaring in the months since.
Pelosi's husband, Paul Pelosi, bought Bloom Energy (BE) and Intel Corp (INTC) stock in July, according to the MarketDash Government Trades page. The disclosure also showed options bought for Bloom Energy, a stock that is now up since that purchase.
Here were the Bloom Energy trades made:
- July 24: Bought 100 call options with a $100 strike price, June 17, 2027 expiration date
- July 24: Bought 10,000 shares
- July 28: Bought 100 call options with a $100 strike price, June 17, 2027 expiration date
- July 28: Bought 5,000 shares
Not taking into account the 200 call options, which are worth more today than they were on the purchase date, here's a look at how much the 15,000 Bloom Energy shares have gained since Pelosi added them to her portfolio.
Bloom Energy stock traded in a range of $183.22 to $214.19 on July 24 and a range of $157.65 to $176.85 on July 28. This marked a three-month low for the stock, indicating a potential buy-the-dip moment for the Pelosis.
Bloom Energy stock is soaring Tuesday and trades at $282.10 at the time of writing. The stock was announced as a new member of the S&P 500 on Friday. This will lead to many mutual funds and ETFs needing to buy up shares of the company to have allocations to cover the members of the broad stock market index.
Based on the purchase price ranges and the current price, the Pelosis' 15,000 BE shares are now worth $4,231,500 and are up $1,205,350 to $1,611,050 in profit.
For comparison, Pelosi currently makes $174,000 annually as a member of Congress, meaning this one trade has made around 7x her annual salary.
