Rep. Tim Moore (R-N.C.) appears to have missed a required disclosure deadline under a federal transparency law, failing to properly disclose hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of personal stock purchases he made immediately before or after President Donald Trump’s April 2 “Liberation Day” tariff declaration, according to congressional financial records reviewed by Fortune.
Moore also appears to have profited from his flurry of purchases after he quickly sold his stock shares off as financial markets swung wildly during April.
Moore did not publicly disclose a dozen stock trades—involving American Airlines Group Inc., Ford Motor Company and Harley-Davidson Inc.—that he made throughout early- and mid-April until Friday, which is well after a federal deadline for doing so. The federal Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act, a law designed to defend against conflicts of interest and insider trading, requires federal lawmakers to disclose any personal stock trade within 45 days of the trade’s execution.
Moore’s congressional office acknowledged a phone call and email from Fortune seeking comment but did not immediately respond to questions. Following publication of this story, Moore emailed Fortune a statement about the “technical delays” of his stock disclosures.
