Trader political contributions from New York

Trader and New York as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation TRADER and donor state NY produce $4,065,309, 5,273 contributions, and 460 donors. The occupation hub is $11,610,856, 19,193 contributions, and 1,507 donors. New York’s dollar share is about 35.0%; contribution share about 27.5% (5,273 of 19,193); donor share about 30.5% (460 of 1,507). Four hundred sixty New York donors are about 30.5% of 1,507 national donors; 5,273 contributions are about 27.5% of 19,193 national rows; dollars are about 35.0% of $11,610,856.

EQUITY TRADER, BOND TRADER, and MARKET MAKER, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Trader total. Do not stack TRADER with EQUITY TRADER or BOND TRADER into a single New York professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

460 New York donors produced 5,273 contributions, about 11.5 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 12.7 rows per donor nationally (19,193 contributions from 1,507 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New York cell is about $771, against about $605 nationwide. New York’s about 35.0% dollar share from 460 people is a geographically heavy slice of a 1,507-donor occupation.

TRADER as a one-word markets string

TRADER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a Series 7, an exchange seat, or a desk assignment. The $11,610,856 national total is TRADER only. 1,507 donors produced 19,193 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 19,193 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New York (NY). One thousand five hundred seven national donors make TRADER a mid-volume occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NY.

New York on the state side

460 New York donors produced 5,273 contributions totaling $4,065,309. Donor state NY is the address on the record, not proof of a New York license, and not a limit to New York candidates. NY is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New York exchange seat, and not a map of which campaigns received the $4,065,309.

The New York campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NY. This join is only TRADER. The Trader occupation hub without New York still holds about 65.0% of the $11,610,856. New York’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NY. TRADER is only this filter.

What the Trader join is not

This page does not split asset classes, verify FINRA registrations, or claim that Trader-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. TRADER is not EQUITY TRADER even when filers meant a listed-equity desk.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. TRADER is not a FINRA registrant file. Donor state NY is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Employer names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Trader filter

Subtract the New York dollars on this page from the national TRADER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded TRADER in every other state combined. That remainder ($7,545,547) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 460 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 5,273 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $4,065,309 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New York dollars, or only the TRADER national total, drops a key. Four hundred sixty donors producing 5,273 contributions totaling $4,065,309 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
