Nancy Pelosi made $130M in stock profits during Congress career — a return of 16,930%

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband made at least $130 million in stock profits over the course of the California Democrat’s 37 years in Congress — a staggering return of 16,930%.

Pelosi, 85, announced this week she will retire when her term ends in January 2027.

The San Francisco pol became famous as the first woman to wield the speaker’s gavel, and infamous for her exceptional stock market returns.

Before first taking Congressional office in 1987, the then-47-year-old freshman and her hubby, venture capitalist Paul Pelosi, reported between $610,000 and $785,000 in stocks in their portfolio, according to a copy of her “hand delivered” 1987 financial disclosure form.

They held a dozen stocks, including CitiBank, and in many companies no longer publicly traded.

That portfolio has soared to $133.7 million today, according to the latest estimates from Quiver Quantitative.
