New Pelosi Buy Alert 🚨 Bought $1.5M of $AAPL & $MSFT

It’s been a pretty eventful last few months of stock trading for the Pelosi family. Just one month after “gifting” Apple shares to Paul Pelosi’s alma mater, it appears that they’re getting back to their buying ways. This morning, Pelosi disclosed another $1.5M worth of tech buys. $500K to Apple and $1M to Microsoft.

These new shares come via her exercising her long dated LEAP options. For our premium subscribers, I’ll describe exactly how these work in the post coming next week, but in short she bought these “positions” about a year ago and the expiration date to execute on those shares came. These buys are not as “bullish” as they were a year ago, but still something to keep an eye on because she could have simply sold them. Her buying indicates she still must believe there is upside in the names.

Below please find the official filing:

Official Trade:
6/15/23 - purchased 5,000 $AAPL shares by exercising $500K of call options

Pelosi is no stranger to Apple & Microsoft either. They each have been two of her largest portfolio holding for months.
