About Ted Cruz's congressional trading
Ted Cruz's disclosed trading record runs from 2013 through late 2025 and totals 18 transactions: 12 sales against 6 purchases. The most recent entry, dated November 11, 2025, was a partial sale of Goldman Sachs Group stock valued at $100,001 to $250,000, filed under his spouse's attribution. That single fact frames the whole record well: of the 18 disclosed transactions, 13 carry a joint attribution code, one is attributed to Cruz personally, one to his spouse, and three carry no attribution information at all. Reading this as a personal trading diary would misstate what the filings actually show. Most of the activity in the record is joint or unattributed, and only one transaction, a 2022 purchase, carries a self attribution.
A record built on two names: Goldman Sachs and energy midstream
Goldman Sachs Group (GS) is the most frequently disclosed security in the file, appearing in four transactions, all of them sales, running from a February 2016 partial sale through the November 2025 transaction. The 2025 filing and the 2016 filing document sales in both years, while the tagged Goldman activity contains no purchases. Goldman Sachs is a global financial institution operating through Global Banking & Markets, Asset & Wealth Management, and Platform Solutions segments, spanning advisory work, underwriting, lending, asset management, and consumer banking products.
Energy midstream names form the other recurring thread. Plains GP Holdings (PAGP), which owns and operates crude oil and natural gas liquids infrastructure through its Plains All American Pipeline subsidiary, appears in three transactions: two purchases in February 2015 and a full sale in November 2019, the most recent PAGP activity on record. ONEOK (OKE), a midstream gatherer, processor, and transporter of natural gas and natural gas liquids, appears in two sales, dated February 25 and April 17, 2016. Enterprise Products Partners (EPD), a midstream operator across NGL, crude oil, natural gas, and petrochemical pipelines and services, was purchased once in February 2014 and again in February 2013 under a separate disclosure that did not carry a company description. BlackRock Municipal Income Trust (BFK), a closed-end fund investing primarily in investment-grade, federally tax-exempt municipal bonds, was the subject of one purchase in February 2014. Chevron Corporation stock was sold twice in the fall of 2015, and an IBM Corp. stock sale and a separate Enterprise Products Partners purchase both appear under a single 2013 filing.
Where sector classification is available in the data, Energy and Financials are the two categories that recur: six transactions tag to Energy and five to Financials, while seven of the 18 transactions, mostly the older Chevron, OKE, GS, and IBM entries filed without ticker or company detail, carry no sector classification in the record.
Recent activity: light, sale-weighted, and largely outside personal attribution
By year, the disclosed record shows five transactions in 2016 (all sales), four in 2015 (split evenly between purchases and sales), two each in 2013, 2014, and 2019, and single transactions in 2022, 2024, and 2025. Purchases cluster in the earlier years, 2013 through 2015, and reappear only once since, with the January 2022 purchase listed under ticker BTC in a disclosed range of $15,001 to $50,000 and carrying a self attribution. The security name field identifies “Bitcoin Exchange/Platform: River.” That purchase stands out for two reasons: it is the only transaction in the file attributed directly and solely to Cruz, and it is the only disclosed entry tagged BTC. The 2024 and 2025 transactions, by contrast, were both Goldman Sachs sales, one recorded with unknown attribution and the most recent with spouse attribution.
A Quantellect Score is not currently available for Cruz. No score row exists for this subject at the latest published score date, August 21, 2026. For context, the current Quantellect population snapshot lists 537 sitting members of Congress, 73 of whom have a score; 76 members have a score overall. Of the sitting members, 276, more than half, have no disclosed trades on record at all. Cruz's 18 transactions place him outside that zero-trade group, while the year-by-year record remains intermittent and heavily weighted toward joint and unattributed filings.
About this profile
This profile is built from congressional financial disclosure filings required under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act of 2012 and published through the Senate Select Committee on Ethics financial disclosure system. The transaction data here reports dollar ranges rather than exact amounts, and disclosure dates can lag transaction dates by weeks or, in some cases, years, as several entries in this record show. Transactions may be attributed to a spouse, dependent child, joint ownership, or an unknown party rather than solely to the member; attribution in this profile follows the code provided in each filing. This page reflects transaction disclosures only and is not an inventory of assets.
