PelosiTracker’s Big Portfolio Update: Smarter Pages, Faster App, Fresh Recommendations

Why this update matters

It’s been a little quiet on the surface, but we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to ship meaningful changes. Since late June, portfolios are richer and more accurate, charts are clearer, compliance is easier to spot, navigation is smoother and the whole site is faster. Here’s a simple, user‑friendly tour of what’s new.

Smarter, richer portfolio pages

• Dynamic performance and holdings: Portfolio pages now calculate holdings and 1‑year performance dynamically for more accurate, up‑to‑date numbers.
• Invested value and totals: You’ll see estimated invested value and a clear count of total holdings at a glance.
• Balanced and expanded coverage: Portfolios have been balanced, and coverage has expanded (including updates for Marjorie Taylor Greene), with a handy Coming soon label where appropriate.
• Watchlist works with portfolios: Your watchlist isn’t just for stocks any more; you can follow portfolios too.

Why the portfolios rebuild

A lot of you have asked for more portfolios and we agree it’s the right direction. To do that properly, we needed to rework how portfolios are stored, calculated and displayed. The new portfolios page is the foundation for scaling coverage: it makes adding new politicians and strategies faster, keeps numbers consistent, and lets you track portfolios directly from your watchlist. It’s a big step towards broader coverage and better tracking.

Explore the latest breakdowns on the portfolios section and each politician page.

New: stock recommendations

• Recommendation signals: An early recommendation system is live, with ongoing tracking and tuning so suggestions improve over time.
• Freshness improvements: Background updates, better caching and data range tweaks keep signals relevant without you needing to refresh.

You’ll see recommendations surface alongside familiar holdings and transaction views where it makes sense.

Compliance made clearer

• STOCK Act checks: Transaction lists now include clear filters and warnings to help you spot potential STOCK Act compliance issues.
• Cleaner filings: PDF parsing is improved, removing duplicated table headers so filings are easier to skim.
• Quick timing cue: Politician profiles include a helpful “Time Since Last Filing” indicator.

Charts that tell the story faster

• Volume overlay + toggles: Add volume directly to the price chart and toggle what you want to see.
• Clearer annotations: Trade markers now extend the full chart height, making key dates easy to spot at a glance.

Head to any stock page and tap through to a ticker to try the new view.

Articles and community

• Live comments: Articles now support real‑time, threaded comments so you can share insights as you read.
• Presence and view counts: See how many people are reading right now and overall view counts for better context.

Navigation and mobile polish

• Responsive navbar: A smarter mobile navbar with overflow keeps navigation tidy on smaller screens.
• Localised titles: Small touches, like the watchlist page title, now honour your language settings.
• Visual polish: Faster animations, tidier alignment and optimised images make the app feel snappier, especially on mobile.

Performance and reliability upgrades

• Site‑wide speed boosts: Smarter caching, a performance booster module and fresh page data rules keep content up to date without slowing you down.
• Quicker pages: Fonts and images are optimised; heavy work is guarded so pages don’t hang.
• Backend efficiency: Queries for filings and transactions use limits and caching, and indexes have been tuned.

These changes make the app feel faster day‑to‑day and more resilient during traffic spikes.

What’s next

• More portfolio coverage with clear “Coming soon” labels while data is finalised.
• Sharper recommendations as tracking data grows and models are refined.
• Deeper dashboards across Opportunity Tracker and Auto Trader as we move from foundations to more active tools.

Final word: the PelosiTracker site is levelling up

In short, you’ll notice: more accurate portfolios, clearer compliance signals, easier charts, livelier articles, smoother navigation and a faster site overall. If you haven’t explored in a while, start with your dashboard, add a few politicians and portfolios to your watchlist, and then dive into the latest transactions.

As always, your feedback guides what we build next. If there’s a view or alert you’d love to see, share it in the comments the best ideas often ship first.
