Quantellect | David J. Taylor Congressional Trading Profile David J. Taylor Congressional Trading Profile | Quantellect

David J. Taylor has nearly doubled his disclosed transaction activity in 2026, logging 140 transactions so far this year compared with 75 across all of 2025. The Ohio Republican, who represents the state's 2nd District, has a disclosure record containing 215 securities transactions since taking office, split between 124 purchases and 91 sales, and the rhythm of those filings comes in clusters, often touching the same handful of names multiple times within a single reporting batch.

The vast majority of transactions, 210 of 215, are attributed to Taylor himself, with the remaining 5 carrying no attribution information available from the source filing. There is no indication in the disclosures of trading tied to a spouse, dependent child, or joint account.

A concentrated, recurring set of names

Rather than a broad, diversified sweep, Taylor's disclosed trading activity clusters around a core group of large-cap names that reappear filing after filing. Installed Building Products, the Columbus, Ohio-based insulation installer, tops the list with 14 disclosed transactions (9 purchases, 5 sales); the record's most recent IBP entry is a purchase dated August 14, 2026. Lam Research, the semiconductor equipment maker, follows with 13 transactions that skew heavily toward selling, 12 sales against a single purchase. Alphabet's Class A shares and Procter & Gamble each carry 12 disclosed transactions, and Microsoft rounds out the top tier with 11. Several other Ohio-headquartered companies show up repeatedly, including Kroger (10 transactions, 8 purchases), Fifth Third Bancorp (5), and RPM International (6), suggesting a trading pattern with a notable home-state tilt alongside the mega-cap technology and consumer names.

By sector, Information Technology accounts for the largest share of disclosed transaction volume at 52, followed by Consumer Discretionary (27), Financials (26), Consumer Staples (24), Communication Services (22), and Health Care (22). Energy and Industrials each show 12, with Utilities (7), Materials (6), and Real Estate (5) rounding out the disclosed activity. Technology, consumer, and financial names together make up the clear center of gravity in Taylor's disclosed trading.

Recent activity and notable patterns

The most recent disclosures, covering transactions from July and August 2026, show continued activity in the same core names. An August 20, 2026 filing reported a Microsoft sale dated August 11 in the $15,001-$50,000 range alongside purchases of Alphabet and Procter & Gamble shares in the $1,001-$15,000 range. All four August 11 entries carry unknown attribution, as does the Installed Building Products purchase dated August 14 in the same filing. An August 6 disclosure covering transactions dated July 24, all attributed to Taylor personally, included sales of Marathon Petroleum and Fifth Third Bancorp alongside purchases of Kroger, Microsoft, and Broadcom, illustrating the kind of same-day mix of buying and selling across sectors that recurs throughout the disclosure history.

Some names show a clear directional lean. Lam Research's 13 transactions include 12 sales against just 1 purchase; its most recent transaction was a sale dated June 5, 2026, and disclosed June 12. Marathon Petroleum shows a similar pattern, 7 sales against 1 purchase, with its latest transactions consisting of sales dated July 24 and disclosed August 6. By contrast, Progressive Corp's 6 disclosed transactions are all purchases, and RPM International shows 5 purchases against 1 sale. Installed Building Products, Kroger, Microsoft, and AT&T all lean toward more purchases than sales, while Apple's 7 transactions skew toward selling, 5 sales against 2 purchases.

The most frequently disclosed names begin with Installed Building Products, Lam Research, Alphabet, Procter & Gamble, and Microsoft. Other recurring securities include Broadcom and Visa, each with 9 transactions, and Salesforce, Home Depot, Marathon Petroleum, and Parker-Hannifin, each with 8. Together, these names span insulation installation, semiconductor equipment, internet services, consumer packaged goods, software, payments, refining, home improvement retail, and motion-control manufacturing. Installed Building Products installs insulation, sealants, garage doors, and waterproofing systems for residential and commercial builders, a business tied closely to housing construction activity. Lam Research makes the deposition and etch equipment used to fabricate semiconductor chips, positioning it inside the chipmaking supply chain rather than as a chip designer itself. Marathon Petroleum operates refining, midstream, and renewable diesel segments across the United States, while Parker-Hannifin manufactures motion and control technologies for aerospace, industrial, and transportation markets.

As of August 22, 2026, 276 of 537 sitting members have no disclosed trades, including 237 of 437 House members. The disclosure record for Taylor contains 215 transactions running from his first disclosed trade on January 30, 2025, through his latest on August 14, 2026.

About this profile and its limitations

This profile is built from official congressional financial disclosure filings under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act's reporting requirements. The House Committee on Ethics' financial disclosure instruction guide describes Periodic Transaction Reports and their reporting categories; each disclosed amount reflects a required range rather than an exact dollar figure.

The profile reflects only what the filings report, and disclosure dates can lag the actual transaction dates. Attribution follows the filer's designation on the disclosure form; where a filing does not specify whether a transaction was personal, tied to a spouse, or made through another arrangement, it is marked as unknown rather than assumed personal. Nothing in this profile should be construed as investment advice or as a suggestion that any transaction was based on non-public information.
