Quantellect | Ashley Moody Trading Profile Ashley Moody Trading Profile

Ashley Moody's first stretch of disclosed trading in the Senate reads less like routine securities activity and more like a running log of options activity. Between January 21 and April 4, 2025, the Florida Republican's disclosures show 76 separate transactions, and 49 of them were sales, many of them full closeouts of call or put contracts in small dollar bands, with transaction dates clustered just days apart. It is an unusually high-frequency pattern for a first-term senator's opening months in office.

Of the 76 transactions, 27 were purchases and 49 were sales, with no other transaction type recorded. Every trade in the dataset falls in 2025, the year Moody's current term began on January 21, so there is not yet a prior period in the record to compare it against. Within that single window, though, the shape of the activity is distinct: repeated single-day bursts in which multiple options contracts, calls and puts alike, are closed out at once, interspersed with larger stock purchases in the same names. Moody's disclosed trading activity currently carries a Quantellect Score of 99, placing her in the "elite" tier and ranked #2 of 76 members of Congress with a scored trading profile as of August 21, 2026. For context, as of August 22, 2026, 39 of the 100 sitting senators have no disclosed trades on record at all, which underscores how much more active Moody's disclosure history is relative to much of the chamber.

A Pattern of Frequent Options Activity

The clearest example came on the February 24, 2025, transaction date, when the disclosures recorded roughly a dozen full sales of options contracts across a wide range of underlying names, including ASML, Symbotic (SYM), Ardelyx (ARDX), Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH), Applied Materials (AMAT), CrowdStrike (CRWD), Wynn Resorts (WYNN), Truist Financial (TFC), CRISPR Therapeutics (CRSP), the Invesco QQQ Trust, and Okta (OKTA), alongside stock purchases in Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), ASML, Genius Sports (GENI), and a full sale of Howmet Aerospace (HWM) shares. A similar pattern showed up on January 22 and March 25, when several options contracts, again both calls and puts, were closed out on the same day that stock purchases were made in related names.

Super Micro Computer (SMCI) is the most frequently disclosed name in the record, appearing in four separate transactions between January and March. That activity itself illustrates the pattern: on March 25, the disclosures show full and partial sales of SMCI call and put contracts alongside a stock purchase in the $100,001 to $250,000 range, and a prior partial sale of SMCI shares on March 24. Howmet Aerospace appears three times, including a purchase in the $50,001 to $100,000 range in January, a full sale in February, and another purchase in April. ADC Therapeutics (ADCT), Applied Materials, and NVIDIA each appear twice, the latter two exclusively as purchases rather than sales.

The most recent disclosed transactions, dated April 4, 2025, were four purchases in the $15,001 to $50,000 range: Energy Transfer LP (ET), a Dallas-based pipeline and midstream operator; JPMorgan Chase (JPM); Ares Capital Corporation (ARCC), a business development company focused on middle-market lending; and Howmet Aerospace, the aerospace fastening and forged-components supplier. That combination broadens the disclosed activity beyond the technology names that dominate the earlier months into energy infrastructure, large-cap banking, and specialty finance.

Sector Concentration and Attribution

Where sector data is available, Information Technology accounts for the largest share of disclosed transactions, 12 of 76. That activity spans Super Micro Computer, Applied Materials, NVIDIA, AMD, ASML, Micron Technology (MU), and the identity and access-management firm Okta. The sports-data company Genius Sports is classified separately under Communication Services. Health Care follows with four transactions, including Eli Lilly (LLY), ADC Therapeutics, and Karyopharm Therapeutics (KPTI), a commercial-stage oncology drug developer. Industrials shows three transactions, all in Howmet Aerospace, Financials shows two (JPMorgan and Ares Capital), and Energy and Communication Services each show one. The largest single category by transaction count, 53 of 76, is tagged as sector "Unknown" in the packet, which corresponds heavily to the options contracts (calls and puts) and a handful of rows, including one in a security listed under the ticker DM, where the underlying company record was not populated.

On attribution, 57 of the 76 disclosed transactions are coded "Self," meaning the filing identifies them as Moody's own trades, while 19 carry an "Unknown or not available from source" attribution code and should not be read as personal decisions absent that confirmation. None of the disclosures in this record are coded to a spouse, joint account, or dependent child.
