10th Inning

Transactions dated inside a federal funding lapse — when much of the government is closed but members retain committee knowledge, agency contacts, and advance awareness of how the standoff will resolve.

This is a date-window report: it lists disclosed transactions that fall inside officially documented periods, nothing more. Trading during these windows is legal, and appearing here is not an allegation. The windows and their sources are listed below; every transaction links to the filing it came from.
