No disclosures of that kind among the 1 rows shown.
Showing the 1 most recent disclosures. One row is one disclosure: a member filing for more than one account on the same day, in the same band, is counted once and marked.
Since the trade: the stock's move from the trade date to the latest close we hold, as of Sep 10, 2026, with the S&P 500 over the same window and the difference against it. The numbers describe the stock after the trade, not the member's result: a disclosure carries a band, not a fill, and a sale keeps the same sign, so a positive number after a sale means the stock kept rising. An option row carries the underlying stock's move. Estimates; n/a on assets with no market price. Not investment advice.

Where does the estimated net worth on this page come from?
It is an estimate produced by a model, not a figure the member disclosed. Congressional financial disclosure reports every asset and liability in a band rather than an amount, so the model takes a value within each band and nets the liabilities. It is shown to two figures because the largest band is open ended and a third would be arithmetic rather than information. It covers only what the disclosures carry, and it is not a measurement of anyone's wealth. The methodology page sets out how it is built and what it leaves out.
How have the stocks moved since Jim Costa's trades?
Across the 1 priced row shown, the median stock move from the trade date to the latest close we hold (Sep 10, 2026) is +75.5%. That figure is an estimate describing the stock after each trade, not the member's result: a disclosure carries a band, not a fill, a sale keeps the same sign, and an option row carries the underlying stock's move.
