What copying John Hoeven would have returned

$10,000 invested on 2014-03-11, buying and selling the same stocks 3 days after each filing became public, ended at $30,582 on 2026-11-09. The same money in the S&P 500 (SPY) ended at $42,840.

That headline is diluted by cash: on average only 92% of the money was invested, because the portfolio holds a few small positions. On the 3,184 days it did hold stocks, the copied holdings returned +7.6% a year against +12.4% for the S&P 500 over the same days: 4.8 percentage points behind the index.
