Corruption Risk · 4-Vector Breakdown

Corruption isn't just trade-based. Here's the four ways political pressure can flow, scored independently from the public record.

📈 Vector 1 · Personal Enrichment trade-based
Representative Estes exhibits minimal trading activity with 12 total trades over five years, averaging $8,333 per position and a 17% overall win rate. His sector performance is highly divergent: a 100% win rate in energy (4 trades, avg return +17.79%) contrasts with 0% win rates in technology and telecom (4 trades each, avg returns -11.13% and -8.35%). However, with only 4 trades per sector, these anomalies are not statistically significant given the low trade count. All trades are sales, with zero late filings and an average disclosure gap of 16.6 days. No options trading or alignment with hedge fund smart money is present.
