Fact check: Nancy Pelosi unveiled a $1 million position in Uber's calls.

Verdict: mixed — Trust Score 65/100

The TikTok post accurately states that Nancy Pelosi recently purchased call options for Intel and Uber stocks, a fact cross-checked by 15 sources. However, the claim that Uber stock surged 6% solely due to her disclosure is misleading, as other market factors also contributed to the rise. The assertion that every trade she has made in the past two years has been profitable is an exaggeration and lacks verifiable evidence.

Claims analyzed (5)

  1. verified: Nancy Pelosi unveiled a $1 million position in Uber's calls.
    Nancy Pelosi disclosed a purchase of 200 Uber call options with a $50 strike price expiring March 19, 2027. The value of this Uber position was reported to be between $500,001 and $1 million.
  2. mixed: Uber stock surged 6% after Nancy Pelosi unveiled a $1 million position in Uber's calls.
    Uber Technologies shares did climb sharply, finishing the session up roughly 6% on June 24, 2026. While Pelosi's disclosure was a catalyst, other factors, such as an expansion announcement from Uber's delivery platform (Uber Eats adding five national retailers), also contributed to the stock's upward momentum.

    Nancy Pelosi disclosed new purchases of call options for both Intel Corporation (INTC) and Uber Technologies (UBER) on May 29, 2026, with the disclosures filed on June 23, 2026.
  4. misleading: Every trade Nancy Pelosi has made in the past two years has been profitable.
    While Nancy Pelosi's trading activity has shown significant outperformance compared to the S&P 500 and a high win rate (85.5% as of June 2026), the claim that *every* trade has been profitable in the past two years is an exaggeration. For example, her Uber call options purchased on May 29, 2026, were reported to be "currently in the red" as of June 24, 2026, meaning they were not profitable at that time. Additionally, there are reports of missed profits from previous trades, such as her Micron c
