CVX

The politician who bets on the end of the war, or rushes to sell before an important law?

Congressman David Taylor sold shares of large energy companies, raising questions about the timing of the sale and whether he knew about political or legislative developments.

The politician who bets on the end of the war, or simply rushes to sell before an important legislative decision?

You decide!

We found that yesterday, Congressman David Taylor reported his buying and selling activities on the stock market on 12/03/2026.

He reported many purchases, but only sold two companies...

One is Chevron $CVX, one of the energy and oil giants in the United States.

The second is Marathon Petroleum $MPC, which focuses on fuel refining and logistics.

What raises questions about his actions is the timing.

Why is David selling stocks that benefit from rising oil and fuel prices in the United States, while tensions and war in the Middle East show no signs of slowing down?

In retrospect,

Suddenly things seem clear..

After all, Trump just yesterday updated on positive developments in negotiations with the Iranians, and according to him, a deal might be reached by the end of the current week (?)

That's true in retrospect, but when David sold, no one knew yet, right?

Or... maybe not?

Perhaps, just perhaps, David Taylor heard whispers in the government corridors about the direction of the war and decided to quickly escape with the profits (?)

We weren't satisfied with that,

and investigated a bit more...

We discovered interesting things.

On March 18, a bill was submitted aiming to tighten enforcement against price gouging by energy companies.

We provided you with a source for all relevant documents.

And again the question arises -

Did Congressman David Taylor, who, by virtue of his position, sits among other things on committees overseeing oil and gas pipelines...

simply know everything in advance and act accordingly?

Or more precisely, did he simply sell at the perfect time?

Only time will tell...

Good intel travels.
