Marjorie Taylor Greene Hits Homerun Again, Buys Alphabet Stock 5 Days Before Favorable Antitrust Ruling: Here Are Some Other New Trades

Author: Rishabh Mishra | September 03, 2025 02:16am

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) purchased shares in Google’s parent company, Alphabet Inc. Class C, just five days before a significant court ruling that caused the company’s stock to surge. The trade was part of a larger buying spree on Aug. 28, 2025, where the congresswoman invested in over a dozen different companies.

Georgia Representative Scores On Google Ahead Of Court Ruling

According to a financial disclosure filed with the Clerk of the House of Representatives, Rep. Greene purchased between $1,001 and $15,000 of Alphabet Inc. Class C stock.

Five days later, on Sept. 2, U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta ruled against a Department of Justice request to break up key Google assets in a major antitrust case. The decision sent Alphabet’s Class C shares up over 6.73% in after-hours trading.

Other Key Trades By Marjorie Taylor Greene

The August 28th disclosure revealed a total of 13 transactions, with an estimated maximum value of over $285,000.

The transactions were highlighted by online accounts that monitor congressional stock trading, including the Nancy Pelosi Stock Tracker on X and Benzinga’s government trade tracker.

These platforms use publicly available disclosure reports to provide real-time insights into the investment activities of lawmakers.

Besides Alphabet, Greene also invested heavily in logistics, purchasing up to $50,000 worth of stock in both FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX) and Ryman Hospitality Properties Inc. (NYSE:RHP).
