President Trump has plenty of enemies with whom to contend. Some of these are the usual culprits and are to be expected. There are members of the Democratic Party who are dedicated to obstructing anything he proposes. Then there are foreign leaders who are ready to oppose the U.S. as well as whomever happens to be the president at the time.
One place where he should not be getting resistance, at least not to the degree he has experienced, is from his own party. That’s not to say they should just act as doormats for whatever President Trump proposes, but there should be a sense that Republican Congressional leaders and the president are on the same page. Unfortunately, with individuals such as John McCain and Paul Ryan holding leadership positions, this is not the case.
One example would be Speaker Ryan’s recent insistence that American industry hire more foreign workers as opposed to President Trump’s emphasis on hiring and buying American.

US Rep. Paul Ryan has made some media blunders, like posing to wash already clean dishes at a soup kitchen, adding some unwelcome commentary to the touchy subject of rape, and other stuff we can probably forgive him for at some point. But could he also be guilty of more serious offences – like insider trading?
On Saturday August 11, 2012, Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney announced Paul Ryan as his running mate, and almost immediately rumors began to circulate alleging Ryan’s possible involvement in insider trading. The rumor was based on the fact that just before the financial meltdown of 2008, on the day that the Fed’s chairman Ben Bernanke and then-Treasury secretary Hank Paulson were going to brief several members of the congress on the impending disaster, Ryan had suddenly sold off a large amount of his banking shares. This move seems very suspicious, and the Romney/Ryan campaign immediately took steps to dispel the rumors.
At the same time, many self-appointed pundits and experts jumped at the opportunity to shed some light on the matter and add their valuable two cents, but they only confused us even more because some of them tried to debunk the allegation and others tried to bolster it. The jury is still out on the matter, but for all these scandalous allegations, Ryan deserves a spot on our famous investors list and we are going to keep a close eye on his activities from now on!
The Plot Thickens
Ryan learned a solid lesson from the insider trading scandal because in September he amended his tax returns to reveal that he had forgotten to report $61,122 of his income from 2011. After the adjustment, his taxes increased by $19,917.
An Investing Guru?
Paul Ryan is not just a Representative for Wisconsin’s 1st congressional district but also a savvy and seasoned investor, which has helped him attain the status of millionaire. One would think that he didn’t have the time for such complex undertakings and was simply using the services of a professional financial advisor but it turns out Ryan is himself a partner at two investment firms: Ryan Limited Partnership (RLP) and Ryan-Hutter Investment Partnership (RHIP). These are sort of a like vehicles through which he makes most of his big investments. For example, he does not directly own Home Depot (HD) shares, but he does through RHIP.
The following is a list of Paul Ryan’s top holdings in publicly traded stocks and shares, from 2011. The value of assets (ie stocks) owned in each company/fund at the end of the year is given as a range. The information is based on Ryan’s financial disclosure report for 2011, filed this year.
1. Home Depot Inc (HD, Earnings, Analysts, Financials): $100,001 – $250,000.
Together with its subsidiaries, operates as a home improvement retailer.
2. Edward Jones Money Market (JNSXX, Earnings, Analysts, Financials): $100,001 – $250,000.
The Fund invests primarily in a portfolio of short-term U.S. Treasury and government agency securities.
3. Fidelity Contrafund Fund (FCNTX, Earnings, Analysts, Financials): $50,001 – $100,000.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in securities of companies whose value it believes is not fully recognized by the public. The Fund normally invests primarily in common stocks and may invest in both domestic and foreign issuers.
4. T. Rowe Price New Horizons Fund (PRNHX, Earnings, Analysts, Financials): $50,001 – $100,000.
The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in common stocks of small, rapidly growing companies.
