    Default Nancy Pelosi's Husband Uses Call Options to Buy Microsoft Ahead of Big Govt Contract

    We have one party that throws some crumbs and are not Fascist but every but as self-serving as the other and not working for the best interests of the people.

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband purchased millions of dollars worth of Microsoft (MSFT) and Roblox (RBLX) shares last month, new financial disclosures form reveal.

    Paul Pelosi exercised call options and paid $1.95 million to buy 15,000 shares of Microsoft at a strike price of $130 on March 19, according to an April 9th filing with the House clerk. That same day, Pelosi, who owns and operates a California venture capital investment and consulting firm, paid $1.4 million for 10,000 shares valued at $140 apiece.

    Since Pelosi made the purchase, Microsoft share prices have climbed from about $230 to roughly $255 – an increase of close to 11% – after the company secured a lucrative government contract worth nearly $22 billion to supply U.S. Army combat troops with augmented reality headsets. The deal was announced on March 31.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Only fascists would approve of and encourage suppression of diversity of opinion by social media, stifle protest by surrounding the Capitol with armed troops and razor wire, and change Congressional rules to allow them to ram legislation through without debate, right?

    People should be very pissed and disturbed that Congressional members are using insider trading to transfer wealth upward. These POS have to go! They are the reason the USA sunk so low as to have a criminal like Trump in the Oval Office.

    Do you even know what a call option is?

    The one thing that isn't explained here is when the call options were originally purchased and what the strike date was. They could have been purchased a week ago, a month ago, a year ago or even ten years ago. My guess is they were purchased at least year ago considering the strike prices was $100 less than the stock price. The last time the stock was under $130 was in 2019.

    How about you try reading the article? All your questions are in there. And stop trying to act like you know anything about investing.

    .
    Remember when the hag made a small fortune from a $1,000 (which no one ever explained where that $$$ came from) pork belly investment.

    When you're a dim ... you are just a naturally WISE investor ... it's kinda like being a "Wise Latina".

    Her husband owns the firm in question


    Is he supposed to sell this company?


    I don’t think others house speakers spouses selling their businesses


    So let’s investigate all questionable trades
