U.S. lawmaker Kean Jr. sells Alphabet, Stryker shares; buys Amazon, others

U.S. Representative Thomas Kean Jr. disclosed partial sales of his holdings in Alphabet Inc. and Stryker Corporation, each transaction valued between $1,001 and $15,000.

The lawmaker also purchased shares in Amazon.com, EQT Corporation, ESAB Corporation and Toast Inc., with each acquisition falling within the same $1,001 to $15,000 range. All transactions were executed through State Street Bank & Trust Co. for sales and the Kean Family Partnership for purchases, in which Kean holds a 33% interest.

The trades were initiated and executed by third-party advisors without direct input from Representative Kean, according to the disclosure. Alphabet’s Class A shares have delivered a 71% return over the past year and trade at a market capitalization of $4.21 trillion, placing the stock slightly above fair value on InvestingPro’s overvaluation ranking.

The transactions were reported under standard congressional financial disclosure rules, which require lawmakers to disclose trades within 45 days of execution.
