SMART MONEY
Congressional disclosures, superinvestor 13F moves, and corporate insider activity — each scored, themed, and fused into one view. We surface the rare moments when all three lean the same way on the same stock.
| Convergence is the moat. We detect when two or three independent smart-money sources move the same direction on the same stock inside a 45-day window — a consensus signal no single tracker can see. Opposing moves are flagged as conflict.
The convergence signal
When a member of Congress buys, several superinvestor funds add, and corporate insiders buy the same stock inside 45 days — that is a convergence.
Illustrative — a hypothetical pattern, not a recommendation. Each convergence is scored 0–100 by source count and materiality.
Congress, superinvestors, and insiders — each with its own 0–100 score and themed briefings — plus the convergence layer that fuses them.
Congress
U.S. House & Senate stock disclosures under the STOCK Act — per member, with committee-conflict and late-filing flags, scored 0–100.
Superinvestors
~70 curated legendary managers — Buffett, Burry, Ackman, Tepper, Dalio — and their quarter-over-quarter position changes and consensus buys.
Insiders
Corporate insider (Form 4) buys and sells, large executive purchases, and cluster-buy detection above a materiality floor.
Convergence
FlagshipThe flagship: when two or three independent smart-money sources move the same direction on the same stock inside a 45-day window.
Rather than tracking all 5,000+ 13F filers, Gunpowder follows a hand-picked roster of legendary managers and reports their quarter-over-quarter moves and where they cluster.
All from public SEC EDGAR 13F filings. What is a 13F?
Every Smart Money briefing is built on a deterministic, verified spine — the trades, the scores, the counts — and adds an AI-written "Analyst Take" that interprets what it means. The model interprets verified data only; it never invents numbers.
It is the practice of following the best-informed market participants — U.S. politicians (via STOCK Act disclosures), legendary fund managers (via 13F filings), and corporate insiders (via Form 4 filings) — to see what they are buying and selling. Gunpowder tracks all three and fuses them into one view.
Convergence is when two or three independent smart-money sources move the same direction on the same stock within a 45-day window — for example a member of Congress, several superinvestor funds, and corporate insiders all buying. Opposing moves are flagged as a conflict signal. Each is scored 0–100.
About 70 hand-picked, legendary managers — including Berkshire Hathaway (Warren Buffett), Scion (Michael Burry), Pershing Square (Bill Ackman), Appaloosa (David Tepper), Bridgewater (Ray Dalio), and Baupost (Seth Klarman) — chosen for signal over the noise of all 5,000+ 13F filers.
All public, official sources: U.S. House Clerk and Senate disclosures for congressional trades, SEC EDGAR 13F filings for institutional holdings, and SEC Form 4 filings for insider transactions. Convergence is derived by fusing the three on the shared company.
No. Gunpowder Smart Money produces intelligence, briefings, and analysis of public disclosures — not trading advice or recommendations. Congressional-trade coverage is provided as news and communications-media analysis.
Each source carries its own deterministic 0–100 score (congressional significance, institutional flow, insider materiality, convergence strength), and every digest adds an AI-written "Analyst Take" that interprets the verified facts — it never invents numbers.
