Richard Hanna’s disclosed stock trades — and what copying them returned
Richard Hanna (House) has disclosed 178 stock trades under the STOCK Act, from Jan 9, 2014 to Jan 18, 2017 — 91 buys and 76 sells, read straight from the official filings. The median gap between a trade and the public finding out was 24 days — which is why every number below starts at the disclosure date, the earliest day anyone could actually have copied a trade.
What copying every disclosed buy would have returned
Our engine bought at the first opening price after each of Richard Hanna’s disclosed purchases became public, held until the matching sale was disclosed, and marked the book against simply holding the S&P 500 over the same window (Jan 10, 2014 – Aug 11, 2026). Fees on, position sizes equal — a filing never discloses the real amount, only a band.
| Copy-return, total | +413.5% |
|---|---|
| S&P 500 over the same window | +416.9% |
| Difference | -3.4% |
| Annualized over 12.6 years | +13.9% vs +13.9% — -0.1% a year against the index |
| Deepest fall along the way | -33.7% |
| Positions that closed ahead | 57% |
| Disclosed buys / actually copied | 91 / 76 |
Read the fill count before the return: a figure built on a handful of copied positions is an anecdote, whatever it says. And a copy-return is not Richard Hanna’s own return — the disclosure lag means a copier never got their entry price.

Hear about the next filing the day it lands
A filing is only useful in the days after it appears — exactly when nobody is watching the disclosure sites. Follow Richard Hanna in Pulse and you get an email as soon as their next report is parsed: the trades in it, both dates, and how long they sat on it.
See plans All members and how the ranking works
Entries are at the first open AFTER the disclosure date — the earliest any copier could act. The member's own entry was up to 45 days earlier. Disclosed amounts are bands, not sizes; every position is sized at your chosen % of portfolio, which is not how the member sized it. Option purchases are copied as the underlying shares. A filing discloses no strike and no expiry, so an option cannot be mirrored — buying the stock is the closest a reader could get. It is 1.6% of all disclosed buys, but for some members it is a quarter to a half of everything they file, so their figure describes copying the filing rather than what the position itself did. Dividends are treated as reinvested (adjusted closes). Fees and taxes are not modeled. Positions are sized from equity at the time of each entry, so gains compound into later position sizes and most of the account sits in cash between filings. Read the drawdown next to the exposure figures: a portfolio that is mostly cash shows a small whole-portfolio drawdown even when its holdings fell hard. Absolute returns are model outputs, not achievable returns. Past disclosures are no promise of future filings — members stop trading, leave office, or file late in batches.
