I first built this project back in March of this year right when quarantine was new. My original inspiration was the recent allegations of insider trading occurring in the stock market. I was fascinated by the idea we could finally peer into this data, but I was very disappointed with how the data is presented! I build Senate Stock Watcher to display this data in an easily digestible format and since its initial unveiling, it has gained a ton of popularity! After having this project & its data being featured on The Register, The New York Times, and other amazing organizations - I am happy to unveil the next big feature for Senate Stock Watcher! With Senate Stock Watcher 2.0 You can find the following: - Improved access to all the data. CSV sheets now accompany the traditional JSON files for the less technical crowd - Ticker Tracking: See how a single ticker has been traded over the senate since it was first ever reported and compare that to its market trend - Senator Overviews: Be able to select a single senator and get metrics on their trading behaviors and volume. You can also now export a single senator's trading history straight from the page!

@tim_carambat is there a way to sort by latest transactions and display it all in a single page view. Also the same for the largest transactions and then the ability to sort by date. I think it should also be possible to construct investments by asset type as well as returns generated by each senator

Excellent idea. I may need time to mull over how to improve it as most data points are covered. Are you automating "suspicious activity" via social media and Zapping towards targeted media groups?

@ravi_bajnath I do not automate suspicious activity and that mostly is for legal reasons. I am not a financial analyst and do not have the authority or background to dictate if someone it up to something suspicious so that is really to cover myself! That being said, i make the data really available so that other who have that expertise can maybe infer those kinds of deductions.
