Tuberville’s Trading History, Comments

When it comes to members of Congress buying and selling stocks, there aren’t many making more trades than Tuberville.

The senator has bought and sold $38 million in stocks since 2021, according to data from Quiver Quantitative. This includes trading at least $6 million in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. Trading activity dropped in 2025 with only $1.1 million in activity.

Over the last three years (2023, 2024, 2025), the sales volume has been higher than the buying volume and 2026 is currently on its way for another year of selling, with these being the first trades disclosed by Tuberville.

Tuberville has claimed that others manage his trades for him and has been outspoken about efforts to ban members of Congress from trading.

The senator also said he saw no issue with President Donald Trump being able to make thousands of stock trades.

“I do the same thing,” Tuberville told MeidasTouch, as reported by AL.com

Tuberville is currently running for Alabama governor.

“I never look at my stocks. You give it to someone who knows what they’re doing,” the senator added.

Tuberville said he and the president are not engaging in insider trading and they should be able to keep trading stocks.

“This is a free country. You know, I’ve made a little money in my life through coaching. I don’t trade stocks. I have a stockbroker. If you’re going to make any money while you’re here in Congress, put your money with a stockbroker,” Tuberville previously said.
