Trump Media & Technology Group, the owner of struggling social media platform Truth Social, is began its long-delayed journey as a public company at Tuesday’s opening bell under the ticker symbol “DJT.”
The stock surged about 56% at the open, to $78, and trading was briefly halted for volatility. Trump Media shares have since stabilized at around $70, marking a 40% increase from Monday’s close.
Wall Street is assigning Trump Media an eye-popping valuation of around $13 billion — a price tag that experts warn is untethered to reality.
The skyrocketing share price comes despite the fact that Trump Media is burning through cash; piling up losses; and its main product, Truth Social, is losing users.

Ah shit I forgot what thread I was on and was just “the cops will lock you up for pissing sideways” rambling.
Yeah, us communists are all the same, just repetitive propagandistic slogans and dumb soundbites led by an uncharismatic moron telling us what to do.
Go build a wall, or bridge or whatever.
Edit: Wait, wait, you weren’t being sarcastic? If so my bad.
Every dollar you launder still has a risk of being caught, like I said, they have more pressing things to spend foreign currency on.
More pressing than possibly owning the next American president? No, they don’t.
His bond was reduced, he doesn’t need the money that desperately that they’d own him
Since there isn’t enough info out there for either of us to be wholly right, I will have to agree to disagree.
Cheers mate.
True fair enough
What? Their money has literally impeded us continuing to give aid to Ukraine. Their investments are paying insane dividends.
Is there solid evidence of that?
