A new congressional trading form filed by Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene disclosed that she recently bought positions in two tech giants. According to the form, the Congresswoman representing the 14th district in Georgia purchased stakes in Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) on April 24. The value of the stakes were between $1,001 and $15,000 each, according to the disclosure form. Microsoft reported fiscal third-quarter results late last month that some on Wall Street characterized as a "drop the mic moment" due to strength in its Azure cloud and artificial intelligence prowess. Qualcomm surprised Wall Street earlier this week when it reported better-than-expected results and guidance, largely due to the return to growth for Android (GOOG) (GOOGL) smartphones in China. Qualcomm shares gained more than 8% on Thursday, while Microsoft was up fractionally. Taylor Greene made several other buys according to the form, including acquiring stakes in Hershey (HSY), Tractor Supply (TSCO), Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B), and several exchange traded funds.
