What copying Josh Gottheimer would have returned

$10,000 invested on 2018-08-13, buying and selling the same stocks 3 days after each filing became public, ended at $17,866 on 2026-11-10. The same money in the S&P 500 (SPY) ended at $27,783.

That headline is diluted by cash: on average only 87% of the money was invested, because the portfolio holds a few small positions. On the 2,070 days it did hold stocks, the copied holdings returned +6.5% a year against +13.3% for the S&P 500 over the same days: 6.8 percentage points behind the index.
