Michael T. McCaul × FB

This January 2025 buy of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at the $15,001 tier is McCaul's most recent disclosed purchase in the stock according to the 10 trades shown here, part of a broader pattern spanning 113 total disclosures. The trade was filed within 12 days, well inside the statutory window, and the size is unremarkable relative to his historical median for this ticker. No clustering signal was detected among House members in the surrounding two-week period. What gives the trade structural interest is context rather than mechanics: McCaul has a long-standing senior role on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, which regularly engages with questions about Meta's platforms in the context of foreign influence, data security, and allied nation digital policy. A buy in early 2025, as regulatory and geopolitical pressures on Meta remained active topics in Washington, sits within a pattern worth monitoring cumulatively across all 113 disclosures.

This April 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at the $1,001 floor is notable less for its size than for its disclosure timing. Filed 31 days after the trade date, it crosses the 30-day threshold by a single day, triggering the late-disclosure signal. While one day over the limit may seem marginal, it is a pattern worth noting in the context of 113 total disclosures, where any systematic tendency toward near-limit filing windows across a large trade population can indicate a structural approach to the disclosure calendar. The transaction itself is small, registering at roughly 7 percent of McCaul's median trade size for this ticker, which may indicate routine portfolio management or a partial liquidation. Committee overlap remains relevant given McCaul's foreign affairs role, but no specific legislative or regulatory event can be pinned to this date without additional vote calendar data. Considered in isolation the trade is low-signal; considered across the full 113-trade history, the disclosure timing warrants attention.

This June 6, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at the $15,001 tier carries a late-disclosure flag, filed 31 days after the trade date, one day past the 30-day limit. It is the first of a rapid series of sell transactions in the stock during June and July 2025, with three additional sells recorded within the following three weeks. The trade size sits exactly at the median, suggesting this may be a standard lot within a broader liquidation program. The late filing in isolation is a minor procedural concern, but when viewed across 113 total disclosures for this ticker, any recurring pattern of near-threshold or over-threshold filing deserves scrutiny. McCaul's foreign affairs role, which has historically engaged with Meta on questions of foreign propaganda, data security, and platform accountability, creates a structural overlap that adds context to any directional trade. No member clustering was detected in the surrounding window.

This June 9, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at the $1,001 minimum tier is the second in a sequence of sells concentrated in mid-June 2025. Disclosed 28 days after the trade date, it narrowly avoids the late-disclosure flag. The transaction is small, at roughly 7 percent of the median for McCaul's Meta trades, and may represent a partial or rounding lot in a broader position reduction. No member clustering was detected, and no size anomaly applies. Viewed in isolation the trade is low-signal. However, its proximity to the larger $15,001 sell three days earlier and the substantially larger sells that follow on June 16 and June 27 suggests this is part of a coordinated exit across a compressed timeframe. Across 113 total disclosures for this ticker, concentrated selling windows of this type merit attention, particularly where committee jurisdiction over digital platforms and foreign influence operations remains active.

This June 16, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $100,001 is a materially larger transaction, coming in at 6.67 times McCaul's median trade size for this ticker. It is the third sell in a ten-day window that began June 6, and it is followed by an even larger $250,001 sell just 11 days later on June 27. The combination of an unusually large transaction size and its position within a concentrated sell sequence makes this one of the more structurally notable trades in the recent record. Disclosure was timely at 21 days. No member clustering was detected in the surrounding window. McCaul's foreign affairs seniority provides a plausible information channel regarding Meta's regulatory and geopolitical environment, including discussions of foreign adversary use of platforms, data localization, and content governance. Across 113 total disclosures, a sell of this size within a compressed exit window is among the highest-signal individual trades in the dataset.

This June 27, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $250,001 is the highest-value trade in the recent 10-trade window and registers at 16.67 times McCaul's median trade size for this ticker. It is the fourth sell in a 21-day sequence running from June 6 through June 27, with cumulative disclosed sell value across those four trades exceeding $416,000. The disclosure was filed promptly, only 10 days after the trade date. No member clustering was detected. The size anomaly here is the primary signal: a $250,001 sell representing more than 16x the typical transaction size is a meaningful deviation from baseline behavior. In the context of 113 total disclosures, this stands out as a concentrated, large-scale exit. McCaul's foreign affairs role, which encompasses oversight of foreign adversary activity on social platforms and international technology policy, creates structural information overlap with Meta's core regulatory risk environment. The compressing of multiple large sells into a single month amplifies the analytical interest.

This July 11, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $15,001 continues the selling pattern established in June, with disclosure filed 32 days after the trade date, two days past the statutory limit. This is the second late-disclosure event in the recent 10-trade window and the third overall sell since June 6. While the transaction size is unremarkable, the recurring late-disclosure pattern is worth noting: in a dataset of 113 total trades, a member who repeatedly files at or just beyond the disclosure deadline across a multi-year record may warrant closer aggregate review. The trade follows the largest sell in the recent window ($250,001 on June 27) by approximately two weeks, suggesting continued position reduction. McCaul's foreign affairs role provides structural context for any informed view on Meta's regulatory trajectory, including international data governance and platform accountability discussions active in this period. No clustering was detected among peer members.

This August 21, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $50,001 arrives roughly six weeks after the concentrated June-July selling sequence and registers at 3.33 times McCaul's median trade size. Disclosure was timely at 21 days. No member clustering was detected, though two members were present in the window. The elevated trade size, combined with its position as part of a sustained directional exit across the summer of 2025, makes this a notable data point within the 113-trade cumulative record. The total disclosed sell value from June 6 through August 21 now exceeds $466,000 across five transactions. McCaul's foreign affairs seniority, which encompasses regular engagement with Meta-adjacent policy areas including foreign information operations, platform regulation, and international technology standards, provides structural context for any directional view on the stock. The absence of a buy in this multi-month sequence reinforces the pattern of systematic position reduction during this period.

This October 27, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $50,001 is the second of two back-to-back sells filed together on November 10, 2025. It registers at 3.33 times the median trade size and was disclosed within 14 days. Viewed alongside Trade #1235, filed the same day for the same size, these two transactions represent a coordinated same-week exit totaling at least $100,002 in disclosed sell value. That brings the cumulative disclosed sell value from June through October 2025 to well over $566,000 across six transactions. No member clustering was detected. The sustained directional character of trading across this five-month window, with no offsetting buys in the dataset, is the primary structural feature across the 113-trade record. McCaul's foreign affairs role, which actively touches Meta's exposure to congressional scrutiny over foreign adversary exploitation of social platforms, remains a relevant structural overlay for this long-running position.

This October 31, 2025 sell of Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) at $50,001 was filed alongside Trade #1778 on November 10, the same day, covering two transactions executed four days apart. Both are at the same $50,001 value and both register as unusually large relative to the median. Together they represent a deliberate end-of-October exit totaling at least $100,002 in disclosed value, extending the uninterrupted sell sequence that began in June 2025. The prompt 10-day disclosure is notable given that two earlier trades in this window were filed late. Across 113 total disclosures for this ticker, the second half of 2025 stands out for the concentration, scale, and directional consistency of the trading activity: six sells disclosed between July and November, with cumulative value exceeding $616,000 in the most recent window alone. McCaul's foreign affairs role, which includes oversight of foreign adversary exploitation of U.S. digital platforms, continues to provide structural context for any position changes in Meta Platforms.
