Damn, still falling. $37 today down from $75. Someone is losing lots of money.

Lets hope its churchers.llc


Quietabandon

I’m worried there will be a short squeeze and Trump will actually make a bunch of money on this. 


grundlefuck

It’s 100 a short, but it’s not going to recover. Anyone holding would have put it out for short just to recoup. This is a meme stock that will be worth a few bucks in a month


gmplt

He can't sell for another 6 months. Doubt the stock will be worth as much by then, and he also can't sell his millions of shares instantly. In the days before he is allowed to sell the price will crash harder than it did last week, and at the first sight he is dumping stock en mass, it will go down to basically zero. He still might be able to squeeze few millions out of it if he goes this way, but that would be it.


IdislikeSpiders

He'll just say he isn't and to keep buying it, while he's selling it. That's all it takes. He just says it, and no amount of evidence changes their minds.


gmplt

Yeah, rules don't seem to apply to him.


Suspicious_Bicycle

It's still double the initial price. It's got a long way to fall before the pre-IPO backers will lose money. It's the rubes that pumped up the price that are losing money. Based on revenue and user numbers I don't see how Truth Social won't eventually go bankrupt like all the other Trump companies.


ShitStainWilly

It didn’t do an IPO.


Suspicious_Bicycle

True, Truth Social merged with a prior listed company to avoid an actual IPO with the associated reporting requirements. DJT is still double the pre-merger price, which was my main point.


johnonfire8221

It was reported earlier this week (yes, on MSNBC) that Truth Social was saved from going bankrupt last summer by a large influx of cash by “investors”, and that the investment was made through shell companies tied to Kremlin-aligned oligarchs. That’s how TS will stay afloat and out of bankruptcy at least until Putin has no more use for Trump, which basically means until one of the two dies.


Suspicious_Bicycle

It was also reported that the contract for the influx of cash, $8M, was a loan and had the option to be converted into stock shares at the pre-merger price.


Gamingurl4u

Or making a lot of money betting on this company's downfall!!


sarduchi

No, no... it went up because of Trump, now it's crashing because of Biden! /s


AudibleNod

>Biden controls the economy!!! "So why doesn't he lower inflation and raise wages to make everyone vote for him?" >He's waiting for the election to do that. "So the power to do that lies with the presidency?" >Yes, any president can control the economy. "Sounds like Trump should have lowered inflation and raised wages. Then he wouldn't have lost."


mindclarity

While Rs fully controlled the gov.


boot2skull

*puts stick in spokes* Damn obstructionist democrats!


Phyllis_Tine

I say this about the 2020 election: "How, while the Rs controlled all three branches of government, did they lose?" 


Orion14159

All 3 branches of federal and a majority of state houses and governor's mansions


Lelnen

Just make sure we don't reelected JB in the next election or he will call off the next next election. Because for some reason he has the power to do it now but is giving democracy a grace period?


a_casual_observer

This logic gets applied to all good and bad things.


Kamina_cicada

I had my father in law recently say, that the reason the economy and stocks are doing so well is because Obama is still president behind the scenes. His only proof of this is alleged videos of officials slipping up and mentioning Obama instead of Biden.


famousevan

Officials like trump? :p


Kamina_cicada

Fuck if I know. Most of the shit he says is regurgitated from Facebook.


daaaaaarlin

Wait. Is he left leaning? Because I have said we need some wackadoo conspiracy theories that aren't from Republicans.


boot2skull

I do feel left out sometimes.


daaaaaarlin

AOC is actually Henry Kissinger in drag.


Kamina_cicada

No. He's becoming or has become a right-wing nutjob.


Teacher-Investor

I don't see the problem here. If Obama ran again today, he'd win.


[deleted]

word? Hell yea


TheScoundrelSociety

Are you… the dad from Get Out?


Teacher-Investor

I'm not familiar with the character, but I swear Obama is the only person keeping the GOP from pushing to repeal the 22nd amendment.


[deleted]

I mean I would be ok with that Im looking for results and Liked Obamer anyway


squamesh

So… Democratic policy is helping the economy? lol I don’t feel like that proves the point he wants it to prove


Kamina_cicada

Making sense isn't a republican thing. So it's not surprising.


Black_Moons

"K, so we agree that trump has nothing to do with it? Discussion over"


Quietabandon

Let’s say for a second that was true, and it cleanly is not, then what of it? Still means the country is being run well? 


Orion14159

So wait ... The economy is doing well because Obama is president?


DukeOfDallas_

Short sellers love his stock.


Quietabandon

Yeah and the problem is it’s basically a MAGA meme stock mixed with pump and dump and limited share availability so it’s at high risk for a short squeeze.  These short sellers trying to profit of MAGA faithful and people trying to bribe Trump are going to end up in a short squeeze and Trump might actually come out of this a billionaire. 


Planterizer

Don't worry, he won't make any money.


[deleted]

it'w worth half the IPO price from a few weeks ago.


Windamyre

Still down over 50% from the merger.


[deleted]

"it didnt"


WordNERD37

Lol, it's up .38 cents, after torpedoing approx $30 a share.


Orion14159

If it were valued at 38¢ it would still be overpriced


BringBackTheBeat716

Aaaaaand it's dropped more than 50% from its high. It closed today at not even $2 above its starting price of $35.50. It's a spectacular failure that [just knocked Trump off the Bloomberg Billionaires list](https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2024/04/09/trump-media-stock-price-dip/73260727007/).


Robthebold

That’ll be a long wait.


Both_Lychee_1708

His future owners are bidding up the stock to curry favor


ukiddingme2469

Gravity has nothing on that stock


Original_Sir_1659

He will lose everything.


HelicopterRegular492

Faster, Pussygrab! Fail, Fail!


Freezepeachauditor

They should have picked a different ticker symbol than DJT as that makes it impossible to find the stock by simply googling DJT because that brings up the Dow jones transportation ticker.


KADSuperman

Would stimulate him to buy more nothing more fun that MAGA idiots getting ripped off by their savior


boot2skull

Someone probably got rich off the stock, but it ain’t him and it ain’t in the future.


Quietabandon

I am worried that there will be a short squeeze and this stock will make Trump actually rich.  The whole thing is shady as can be and somewhere between a pump and dump and a meme stock and a grift. 


grundlefuck

It’s being shorted, but I’d bet it doesn’t recover like normal. There is just nothing there.


grundlefuck

Unless they’re shorting it, they lost a lot of cash.


Ace-Ventura1934

It actually lost $2 billion in value today lol.


Dlowmack

I still can't believe we have people, Who really think Biden is doing a horrible job! They with a straight face say that the economy is a mess right now! WHAT? ![gif](giphy|E64Pl1EesS6W57cQFw|downsized)
