9 分钟Hey, indicated listeners, Darrine woods here.
This week we are running our favourite episodes of the year.
Today's episode explores how Democratic and Republican members of Congress invest and whether they're any good at it.
We'll have a small update for you at the end.
Npr.
This is the indicator from Planet Money.
I'm Waylon Wong.
And I'm Darian Woods.
And we have NPR's congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh with us today.
She's dialing in from the House of Representatives.
Hi, Deirdre.
Hey there, Deirdre.
The stock market is on a tear right now.
And you reported this story that caught our attention about a company that partnered with the financial firm Subversive to allow everyday people to invest like members of Congress.
Right.
So this was initially created by a trader who calls himself Unusual.
Whales love the name.
He has created two separate ETFs, exchange traded funds.
Right.
That are modeled on the trades by members of Congress.
