Tim Moore isn't generating headlines right now. Zero Google News stories in the last 24 hours. The Bluesky mentions of his name are about a podcast author and a malfunctioning smart home. For a freshman House member from North Carolina's 10th district, that's either fine or quietly convenient, depending on how you feel about what's sitting in his disclosure filings.
The filings have been busy, even if Moore hasn't been. Five disclosed trades in 90 days, one of them his worst on record, and a seat on the House Committee on Financial Services — specifically its subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Artificial Intelligence.
The AT&T Trade That Went Wrong, Fast
On May 18, Moore purchased AT&T stock (ticker: $T) in the $15,001–$50,000 range. Three days later, on May 21, he sold it. Same ticker. Same disclosed amount range. In and out in 72 hours.
The 30-day alpha on that May 21 sale: negative 13.9%. Per the disclosure record, that's the single worst-performing trade in Moore's scored sample. He bought it, held it for three days, sold it, and the position continued to underperform the S&P 500 by nearly 14 points over the following month.
There are no vote-trade overlaps flagged on these AT&T moves, and AT&T doesn't fall within the Financial Services committee's core jurisdiction. A bad trade. That's it.
The Rest of the Recent Portfolio
Before the AT&T episode, on April 7, Moore sold Harley-Davidson (ticker: $HOG) in the $50,000–$100,000 range — the largest single disclosed transaction in his recent 90-day window. Moore sits on Financial Services and the Budget Committee. The overlap between his committee work and HOG's core business is zero. Just a trade.
On May 7, he picked up two more positions: InterContinental Hotels Group (ticker: $IHG) and Rolls-Royce Holdings (ticker: $RYCEY), each in the $1,000–$15,000 range. Hotels and aerospace engines. No committee overlap flagged on either, no vote-trade timing worth calling out.
The Actual Scorecard
Across 87 scored trades in the full Blind Trust sample, Moore has posted positive 30-day alpha on 58 of them against 29 negative. That's a 66.7% positive rate, with a mean 30-day alpha of 4.8% above the S&P 500.
The bad trades are real. His three worst: the AT&T sale at -13.9%, a Harley-Davidson sale from November 2025 at -14.9%, and an HY (Hyatt Hotels) sale from October 2024 at -23.7% on a position disclosed at $100,000–$250,000. Three of his four worst trades involve selling. The losses tend to come on the exit.
The three best: a GNPX purchase in December 2025 at +49.4%, a Cracker Barrel purchase at +32.1%, and an HY purchase at +29.0%. None carry committee overlap flags.
The Committee Overlap Trades: Intel, Three Times in Two Weeks
Here's where the Financial Services committee membership actually matters. Moore's disclosure record shows five flagged committee-overlap trades, all involving Intel ($INTC), all clustered inside a 13-day window in August 2025.
August 1: purchased Intel, $15K–$50K. Thirty-day alpha: +24.6%.
August 8: purchased Intel again, $15K–$50K. Thirty-day alpha: +23.0%.
August 11: purchased Intel a third time, $15K–$50K. Thirty-day alpha: +17.9%.
August 13: sold Intel, $100K–$250K. Thirty-day alpha: +7.0%.
Moore's subcommittee covers Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Artificial Intelligence. Intel is a semiconductor company with substantial exposure to AI infrastructure policy. Three purchases in ten days, followed by a consolidating sale two days later at roughly the combined total of the three buys. The alpha on all four moves was positive.
The fifth overlap trade: a sale of Nvidia ($NVDA) on March 24, 2026, in the $15K–$50K range, at essentially flat 30-day alpha (-0.0%). Nvidia needs no introduction on any AI-adjacent subcommittee.
The disclosures are public record. We're not a court. A member of the Financial Services subcommittee on digital assets and AI, trading Intel three times in ten days at above-market returns while holding Nvidia in a disclosed position, is a combination the public record is allowed to notice.
The Votes Running in the Background
On June 29, Moore voted Yea on the TRIA Program Reauthorization Act of 2026, which extends the federal terrorism risk insurance backstop — squarely a Financial Services matter. No trade-vote overlap is flagged in the data.
On June 25, he voted Yea on the Financial Exploitation Prevention Act of 2025. Again: direct committee remit. No flagged trade overlap.
Veterans benefits bills, a housing act, a FISA extension that failed — those floor votes don't connect to anything in his portfolio and we're not going to pretend they do.
What the STOCK Act Does and Doesn't Require
Members must disclose stock trades within 45 days. They are not required to divest, recuse, abstain, or explain themselves. Moore has disclosed five trades in the last 90 days and dozens more over the full sample. All of it is legal. All of it is public.
The STOCK Act requires the disclosure. It does not require the trades to make sense, or to stop, or to have nothing to do with the member's committee work.
Moore's 66.7% positive alpha rate across 87 trades is a real number. His worst trade on record is also a real number. His Intel cluster during his AI subcommittee tenure is a real sequence of dates. The receipts are public. Make of them what you make of them.
