About Scott H. Peters's congressional trading
The most striking feature of Scott H. Peters's disclosure record is not any single trade but the sheer volume of activity now flowing through his 2026 filings, and to whom the transactions are attributed. Through July 30, 2026, his household has already disclosed 115 transactions this year, a pace that has already surpassed the 53 transactions logged for all of 2025. Of the 1,062 transactions on record since August 2012, 954 are attributed to a spouse, versus 104 attributed to the congressman himself and just 4 filed as joint. None are attributed to a dependent child, and none carry an unknown attribution code. This is, by the numbers, a disclosure record overwhelmingly attributed to a spouse, not a record of transactions attributed primarily to Rep. Peters personally.
The composition of the recent activity has also changed. The most recent 2026 transaction entries feature municipal bonds, U.S. Treasury bills, and private investment funds, securities such as a Pittsburgh, CA Successor Agency municipal bond, Audax Senior Loan Fund ST LP, Smash Capital Fund II LP, and repeated Treasury bill purchases and partial sales. None of these carry a ticker, company name, or sector tag in the underlying data, which helps explain why "Unknown" is by far the largest single category in the sector breakdown, accounting for 752 of the 1,062 total transactions, well ahead of Financials (102), Health Care (47), Industrials (32), Information Technology (32), Consumer Discretionary (31), Communication Services (24), Energy (19), Consumer Staples (18), and Utilities (5).
How the Trading Pattern Has Shifted Over Time
The supplied record contrasts the individual, sector-tagged equities prominent in the early-to-mid 2010s with the municipal debt and fixed-income instruments featured in the most recent 2026 transaction entries. Activity peaked at 386 transactions in 2015, more than any other year on file, split 234 purchases to 152 sales. The year before, 2014 logged 66 transactions, split 3 purchases to 63 sales in a heavily sale-skewed year. Activity then fell sharply to 23 transactions in 2016, followed by a run of years in the 20-to-80 transaction range through the end of the decade. Some years lean clearly toward buying, such as 2022 (17 purchases versus 2 sales), while others lean toward selling, such as 2021 (5 purchases versus 36 sales) and 2020 (22 purchases versus 38 sales). Counts then moved from 43 in 2023 to 58 in 2024, eased to 53 in 2025, and reached 115 through July 30, 2026. Across the full history, purchases (554) and sales (508) are roughly balanced, but the mix within any given year has varied considerably.
Disclosure timing follows the pattern required of members of Congress under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act, which requires covered transactions to be reported within a set window after execution (STOCK Act). The filing submitted on August 17, 2026, for instance, covers transactions dated between July 1 and July 30, 2026 (PTR filing). Under House ethics guidance, a periodic transaction report can reflect transactions attributed to the filer, a spouse, a dependent child, or jointly, which is why attribution codes matter more than the headline dollar amounts (House Ethics disclosure guide).
Most Frequently Disclosed Securities
Looking across the full 2012-2026 window, one name stands out for its transaction frequency: Rand Capital Corp, a Financials-sector name, appears in 30 disclosed transactions, every one of them a sale, with the latest transaction dated August 4, 2020. No other security on record approaches that count, and none of Rand Capital's 30 disclosures include a corresponding purchase, making it the single most frequently disclosed name in the data.
Below that sits a large cluster of diversified, well-known large-cap names, Automatic Data Processing, Bank of America, Walt Disney, EOG Resources, TJX Companies, UnitedHealth Group, Apple, Amazon.com, American Express, Boeing, BlackRock, Citigroup, Colgate-Palmolive, Capital One, Cisco Systems, CVS Health, Dollar General, Danaher, Eastern Co, EQT, Fidelity National Information Services, Fiserv, GE Aerospace, Home Depot, Johnson & Johnson, JPMorgan Chase, Macy's, Medtronic, Merck, Microsoft, Omnicom Group, Oracle, PepsiCo, P10 Inc, and Qualcomm, spanning Financials, Health Care, Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary, Industrials, Consumer Staples, Energy, and Communication Services. Nearly all of them share a latest transaction date of September 2, 2015, each logged with 6 to 8 disclosed transactions split roughly evenly between purchases and sales. That clustering lines up with 2015's outsized 386-transaction total and shows a broad sweep of names across sectors, rather than transaction activity concentrated in any one industry. Eastern Co is the exception in this group, appearing only as sales (6 of 6) with its latest transaction dated June 30, 2014, a year earlier than the rest of the cluster.
No Quantellect Score is currently published for Rep. Peters. As of the August 21, 2026 scoring date, 76 members carried a published score, including 73 of the 537 sitting members tracked; Peters is not among them.
Disclosure and Attribution Notes
- The overwhelming majority of transactions in this record, 954 of 1,062, are attributed to a spouse (attribution code SP), not to Rep. Peters personally. Only 104 are attributed directly to him (SELF) and 4 to a joint account (JT). No transactions carry a dependent-child or unknown attribution.
