Marjorie Taylor Greene's Stock Trades Face Scrutiny Over Timing Before Trump's Tariff Pause

The congresswoman's significant investments in major companies shortly before a market rebound have intensified calls for an insider trading investigation.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene purchased between $21,000 and $315,000 in stocks on April 8 and 9, just before President Trump announced a 90-day tariff pause.
Trump's announcement triggered a dramatic market rebound, with the S&P 500 seeing its largest gain since 2008 and Tesla stock jumping 18%.
Democratic lawmakers are urging an investigation into whether Greene or Trump allies had prior knowledge of the tariff policy shift.
Greene has stated that her financial advisor manages her investments under a fiduciary agreement, ensuring transparency in her disclosures.
The incident has reignited debates over congressional stock trading, with bipartisan calls for stricter rules to prevent potential conflicts of interest.
