'Hard for house dems to regulate Silicon Valley when the likely speaker's husband is knee deep in tech derivatives. $AMZN $FB' ouch

Wouldn’t be hard if these were put options…

The tweet says they were call options

This probably proves Pelosi's family is on the up-and-up.

Not only did he disclose same-day, those trades were terrible ones. . . if there was corruption or advanced insider knowledge, he would have bet the other way. Instead, they will likely all expire as worthless.

Fake news. For what reason shouldn't he invest? Is there a conflicting proceeding the US? In that case then he'd close the position or the disclosure would be blocked. Isn't this the point of disclosure? Also, not sure why everyone is so excited over options (the right - not the obligation - to buy the underlying stock), which again has been properly disclosed. This is gaslight hypocrisy.
