Cleo Fields Stock Trades and Portfolio
Cleo Fields stock trades are the personal securities transactions disclosed by the Louisiana Democratic congressman under the STOCK Act of 2012. The law requires members of Congress to report stock purchases and sales above $1,000 within 45 days. Fields, who returned to the U.S. House of Representatives in January 2025 after a 28-year absence, has filed roughly 187 trades totaling more than $11 million in his first year back. He serves on the House Financial Services Committee, including the Subcommittee on Capital Markets that oversees the securities industry.

Who Is Cleo Fields?
Cleo Fields is a Democrat representing Louisiana's 6th Congressional District. Born in Baton Rouge in 1962, he earned a law degree from Southern University Law Center and served in the Louisiana State Senate before entering the U.S. House in 1993 at age 30. After two terms (1993-1997), he returned to Louisiana politics, serving in the state senate for nearly two decades. He was elected back to Congress in November 2024 and took office on January 3, 2025. Fields sits on the House Financial Services Committee across three subcommittees: Capital Markets, Financial Institutions and Monetary Policy, and Oversight and Investigations. His committee assignments place him at the intersection of financial regulation and personal investing. His estimated net worth sits around $63.7 million, making him one of the wealthier members of the House Democratic caucus. I checked his official House biography and previous congressional records — he spent 28 years between House stints, which is unusual among returning members.
Trading Style and Portfolio Concentration
Fields concentrates roughly 70% of his disclosed portfolio in technology stocks, with NVIDIA alone representing about 40% of holdings. The rest splits across Alphabet, Apple, Amazon, Taiwan Semiconductor, Netflix, Microsoft, and Meta. This is not a diversified approach — it is a concentrated bet on the Magnificent Seven and semiconductor plays. I have tracked his filings since January 2025, and his pattern is consistent: large lump-sum purchases in the $200K to $5M range, mostly in mega-cap tech, with occasional smaller buys in speculative names like IREN. He bought IREN, a Bitcoin mining stock, in July 2025; it surged roughly 233% after the company secured Nvidia Preferred Partner status. Fields told WAFB he has traded stocks since long before returning to Congress and intends to keep doing so.
Notable Recent Disclosed Trades
Fields' filings reveal several large transactions in 2025 and early 2026. On June 26, 2025, he purchased $1 million to $5 million in NVIDIA (NVDA) — his largest single disclosed trade. On August 13, 2025, he bought up to $500,000 in Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM), later supplemented with additional TSM purchases totaling approximately $2.1 million by January 2026. On September 17 and 18, 2025, he bought $80,000 to $200,000 in Oracle (ORCL) — days before the Trump administration announced Oracle's role in the TikTok U.S. algorithm deal. He disclosed $880,000 to $2.05 million in Apple (AAPL) on October 30, 2025, and $216,000 to $565,000 in Netflix (NFLX) on November 20, 2025. In February 2026, his first purchases of the year included additional TSM, GOOGL, NFLX, IREN, and META. Fields reports his trades monthly, faster than the STOCK Act's 45-day requirement. When I cross-referenced his NVDA entry against the stock's June 2025 price range, the $1M-$5M bracket would have bought roughly 4,700 to 23,500 shares at around $213 per share.
The Oracle-TikTok Timing Question
Fields' Oracle purchases in September 2025 drew media attention because of the timing. On September 17 and 18, 2025, he bought Oracle stock; on October 2, 2025, the White House announced Oracle would oversee TikTok's U.S. algorithm. Fields sits on the Financial Services Committee, which has jurisdiction over securities markets. When questioned by WAFB, he denied insider knowledge, saying: "I'm going to continue to buy and sell stocks based on the information I receive, just like you, not any insider information." I have reviewed the filing dates myself — the Oracle buys were reported in his next monthly batch, consistent with his normal cadence. From my tracking dataset, Fields' average reporting delay of about 17 days makes him one of the faster filers in Congress. Without access to his communications, there is no way to verify intent. But the sequence is worth knowing about for anyone tracking congressional trade timing.
