House Speaker Nancy Pelosi disclosed new stock market trades on Monday, showing purchases of options to buy between $750,000 and $1.5 million shares of Apple Inc and hundreds of thousands in Microsoft Corp.

In a periodic transaction report signed last Friday and appearing on the House of Representatives' website on Monday, the California Democrat disclosed that her husband, financier Paul Pelosi, on May 13 bought Apple call options for between $500,001 and $1 million.

On May 24, he bought more Apple call options, in an amount between $250,001 and $500,000, the disclosure shows.

On the same day, Paul Pelosi bought Microsoft call options for as much as $600,000 – one option between $50,001 and $100,000 and another with a low of $250,001 and $500,000.

Users on social media platforms including Twitter, Reddit, Youtube and TikTok have scrutinized Pelosi's trade disclosures in recent months, believing her position as House Speaker gives her and her husband an edge.

The disclosure also comes just a week after the congresswoman's husband was arrested for drunk driving and charged with a DUI.
