<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 15 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) unleashed sharp criticism of President Donald Trump&#8216;s $3.8 trillion tax package after the House narrowly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45581297/trumps-big-beautiful-3-8-trillion-bill-squeaks-through-house-expert-says-it-will-boost-the-economy-in-the-short-term-but-worsen-deficits">approved the legislation 215-214 on Thursday</a>, accusing billionaires Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk of celebrating while millions face healthcare cuts.
What Happened: &#8220;Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are popping champagne because House Republicans just passed Trump&#8217;s &#8216;big, beautiful bill,'&#8221; Warren wrote on X. &#8220;This bill is a big tax handout for billionaires, paid for by ripping health insurance from 14 million people.&#8221;
The legislation now advances to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45581297/trumps-big-beautiful-3-8-trillion-bill-squeaks-through-house-expert-says-it-will-boost-the-economy-in-the-short-term-but-worsen-deficits">Senate before the July 4 recess</a>. Bond markets reacted sharply to the passage, with 30-year Treasury yields spiking to 5.15% — the highest level since October 2023 — as investors demand higher compensation for increased fiscal risk.
Warren warned the bill represents &#8220;the greatest transfer of wealth from the poor to the billionaires in one bill in all of U.S. history.&#8221;

Market analysts acknowledge short-term economic benefits but express concern over long-term fiscal consequences.

Elizabeth Warren Says Jeff Bezos And Elon Musk 'Are Popping Champagne' As House Passes Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill' She Calls A Handout To Billionaires

Shares of health insurance stocks are trading lower after CMS announced a strategy to enhance and accelerate Medicare Advantage audits.

The House Rules Committee advanced President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;One Big Beautiful Bill Act&#8221; in an 8-4 vote following a marathon 22-hour hearing, setting up a potential overnight floor vote as Republicans push forward with the $4.9 trillion legislative package despite internal GOP divisions.
What Happened: House Republicans made key concessions to appease conservative and moderate holdouts before advancing the megabill, as <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/committee-advances-trump-megabill-full-house-after-aimed/story?id=122059925">reported</a> by ABC News.
The committee approved accelerated Medicaid work requirements starting December 31, 2026, instead of 2029, while raising the state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap to $40,000 for incomes under $500,000, up from the current $10,000 limit established in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
The revised bill also expedites cuts to Biden-era clean energy tax credits, requiring new projects to break ground within 60 days or be &#8220;placed in service&#8221; by end-2028.
Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security receives $12 billion through September 2029 for border security reimbursements to states.
Texas Rep. Chip Roy was notably absent from the committee vote, while Democrats employed stalling tactics on the House floor to slow the bill&#8217;s progress. The changes came after Trump met Wednesday with House Speaker Mike Johnson and Freedom Caucus members following failed Tuesday negotiations, with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt calling the meeting &#8220;productive.&#8221;

The CBO analysis shows that the lowest income decile would lose approximately 2% of household resources in 2027 and 4% by 2033, while the highest decile gains 4% in 2027.
Senate Republicans have already signaled plans for additional changes, creating uncertainty for the final passage of Trump&#8217;s signature legislative priority.

If You Invested $1000 In This Stock 20 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

President Donald Trump's sweeping legislative package is, as expected, divisive. Republicans are pitching it as &#8220;One, Big Beautiful Bill.&#8221; Democrats are <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2cwPUb21IE">calling it</a> &#8220;one big beautiful betrayal.&#8221; Here's a look at some of the bill&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45485150/the-one-big-beautiful-bill-would-create-maga-savings-accounts-with-a-1000-gift-from-the-government-at-birth">key elements</a>.&nbsp;
The Winners: The bill seeks to extend The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017. That means the expiring provisions that benefit high-income and wealthy earners would be permanent.
It also seeks to eliminate federal taxes on tips and overtime pay, fulfilling some of Trump&#8217;s campaign promises.&nbsp;
The tax breaks would reduce revenue by $4.9 trillion over the decade, but increase spending on military, defense and border security. 
So, if legislators sign the bill into law, major U.S. defense contractors like RTX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) and Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) could benefit from increased defense spending.&nbsp;
Other companies exposed to the defense sector including Palantir Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) and Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAH#NYSE">BAH</a>) could also benefit from increased military and defense spending.&nbsp;

The Losers: The cost of the tax bill will be partially balanced with new taxes on private university endowments and significant cuts to programs like Medicaid.
Stocks of major Medicaid managed care organizations could be vulnerable to enrollment volatility and premium pricing challenges if the changes are approved. Investors would be wise to monitor UnitedHealth Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>), Centene Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNC#NYSE">CNC</a>) and Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ELV#NYSE">ELV</a>) as the bill moves through Congress. 
Low-income Americans who rely on food assistance should also take note. House Republicans are proposing major changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. The program aids over 42 million Americans. The bill would shift 5% of benefit costs and 75% of administrative costs to states, up from the current 50% share for administration only. It also seeks to expand work requirements to recipients up to age 64.
Democrats have criticized the move as harmful to families, while Republicans say it promotes work and cuts waste. The House Agriculture Committee has already <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/05/14/congress/house-agriculture-committee-approves-300-billion-in-nutrition-spending-cuts-00350900">approved</a> $300 million in SNAP cuts to help fund tax breaks.
If the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45431505/gop-tax-bill-breaks-trumps-social-security-tax-pledge-still-hits-25-million-seniors-while-elon-musks-stock-wealth-skirts-fica"> legislative package</a> is passed, it would also be the end of many clean energy initiatives and key tax credits and would impose new fees on electric vehicles. These changes could slow the growth of the clean energy sector and make electric vehicles and renewables less competitive compared to traditional energy sources.&nbsp;
Clean energy stocks including Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>), First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) and Sunrun, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>) were all sharply lower on Monday as investors digested the potential effects on the industry.&nbsp;
The 1,116-page bill also wouldn&#8217;t quell fears about America&#8217;s public debt, which currently stands at $36 trillion. According to the nonpartisan watchdog group, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the bill <a href="https://www.crfb.org/blogs/adding-house-reconciliation-bill">adds</a> approximately $3.3 trillion to the national debt over the next ten years.
What's Next: After advancing out of the House Budget Committee in a rare Sunday meeting by a narrow 17-16 vote, Trump&#8217;s &#8220;One Big, Beautiful Bill&#8221; faces several<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45481745/donald-trump-backed-gop-bill-seeks-to-ban-states-from-regulating-ai-for-10-years-critics-warn-its-federal-overreach-that-could-backfire"> key steps</a> before it can become law.
The next stop is the House Rules Committee, which will meet midweek to set the terms for floor debate, consider possible amendments, and make any necessary last-minute adjustments to the bill before it heads to a full vote on the House floor. 
If the bill passes the House, it will move to the Senate where it may face additional challenges, as Republican senators are also seeking changes that could complicate final passage.
Further changes to the bill are possible as leaders work to secure enough support from both conservative and moderate factions.&nbsp;

Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' Advances: Here's Who Wins And Loses

Centene's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNC#NYSE">CNC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 19.26% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 8.57 million shares sold short, which is 1.97% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.57 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Centene has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Centene's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Centene's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.72%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
