lead House counsel during Donald Trump's first impeachment — has filed 1,183 STOCK Act
disclosures since taking office in January 2023, totaling approximately $32.1M
across 393 listed-company tickers. His filings show a net-seller pattern (344 buys vs 839

Section 01 · Trading Overview
Trading Overview
Daniel Goldman stock trades stand out for two reasons: direction — 839 of his 1,183 deduplicated filings are sales (71%), against just 344 purchases — and the wealth behind them: ~$32.1M in disclosed band volume from an heir to the Levi Strauss fortune, one of the largest personal fortunes in the House. He has disclosed zero options. He sits on the House Homeland Security and Foreign Affairs committees.
According to GovGreed's analysis of 103,887 deduplicated STOCK Act filings from 353 politicians, Goldman's record spans 709 distinct disclosed instruments — 393 of them listed-company tickers, the rest municipal bonds, Treasuries, and funds, which is itself the tell of a managed family trust. His most-traded listed industries: drug manufacturers (39 filings), biotechnology (28), regional banks (28), and application software (22). GovGreed's signal scoring engine cross-references each trade with his committee assignments, bill activity, campaign contributions, and lobbying data.
Goldman ranks 13th in Congress by deduplicated filing count (verified August 27, 2026) — 1,183 disclosures filed for trades dated January 2023 through February 2025. That pace is high enough to suggest professionally managed accounts, and one thing separates him from the highest-volume traders like Ro Khanna (24,991 trades) and Michael McCaul (16,488 trades): his filings lean 71% to the sell side.
Of Goldman's 1,183 filings, GovGreed counts zero disclosed option positions. That absence matters: options are the clearest marker of personally directed conviction betting, and Goldman's record has none. Combined with the 71% sell ratio and a portfolio heavy in municipal bonds and Treasuries, the record reads as a family trust being diversified and drawn down — not a member making directional bets.
Dollar volume context: Goldman's ~$32.1M in disclosed lifetime trading (band midpoints; the disclosed range is $15.4M–$48.8M) ranks 19th in GovGreed's deduplicated database, verified August 27, 2026. Congress discloses dollar bands, never exact amounts — every figure on this page is a band or a band total.
For comparison: Pelosi's household files fewer, larger trades (single NVDA/AAPL/MSFT positions worth millions each), while Khanna files roughly 21× Goldman's count in mostly small broker-managed increments. Goldman sits in a third category: moderate count, meaningful size, and a persistent sell-side tilt that looks like inherited wealth being unwound rather than a market view being expressed.
Section 03 · Committees × Portfolio
Homeland Security + Foreign Affairs Seats, and What He Actually Holds
Daniel Goldman sits on the House Homeland Security Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee — panels with jurisdiction over DHS, border and cybersecurity policy, and U.S. foreign relations. That is a weaker direct line to a broad equity portfolio than a financial-services seat would be, and GovGreed scores it that way: committee jurisdiction is a standing fact about what a committee oversees, not evidence of timing.
What his filings actually show is breadth: 393 listed-company tickers plus several hundred municipal-bond and Treasury line items. The most-traded listed industries are drug manufacturers (39 filings), biotechnology (28), regional banks (28), and application software (22) — the shape of a professionally diversified trust, not a sector bet. He represents NY-10, a district where many constituents work in finance, which keeps his disclosures under a brighter spotlight than most.
Why This Matters
Net-seller pattern: 839 of 1,183 deduplicated filings are sales (71%) — the signature of a family trust being liquidated and diversified, not conviction stock-picking
Zero disclosed options: the clearest marker of personally directed betting is absent from his record entirely
Levi Strauss heir: one of the largest personal fortunes in the House sits behind these filings — the disclosed bands run to $48.8M at the ceiling
NY-10 district = Wall Street commuter belt: Many constituents are bankers, traders, and asset managers — his disclosures draw outsized scrutiny
Committee seats: House Homeland Security and Foreign Affairs — a weaker direct portfolio overlap than a financial-services seat, and GovGreed scores it that way

GovGreed does not make legal accusations. The data shows a member with ~$32.1M in disclosed band volume, a 71% sell ratio, and zero options — a profile that reads as wealth management, and GovGreed reports it as such. Whether any specific trade constitutes illegal insider trading is a legal determination for the SEC and DOJ. GovGreed quantifies these patterns objectively across 440,806 bill-trade correlations covering all of Congress. Not financial advice.

Disclosure Gap Analysis

Late filings matter because they extend the information asymmetry window — the period during
which the representative knows his positions but the public does not. Goldman's own record is clean by congressional standards —
31 of 1,183 filings late (2.6%), a fraction of the 12.1% congressional rate. GovGreed still flags
every late filing automatically across all
12,559 late-filed trades in the database.

The full sector breakdown is visible in the chart above and the trade table.
Is Daniel Goldman on the House Financial Services Committee?▼
No. Goldman sits on the House Homeland Security Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
