Trump Media shares are down about 40% since a New York jury found Trump guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records on May 30.

      113M shares times $31/share is $3.5B.

      That’s wild. No way the company is worth that, much less his share.

        Didn’t they at least raise $500 million or something?

        It’s not a totally worthless company. Honestly, the point we should celebrate is when it drops below the value of the $$$$ that was pumped into the stock. The IPO and SPAC rised nearly $500Million so the company officially loses value at around $6/share or so.

          With a gross profit of over 4 million!

          Gross.

            Interest rates are 5.25% right now. If they just put that money in a money-market fund, they’d be getting ~$25 million/year in profits alone.

            Just $4 Million in profits is hilariously bad. It means the company is doing worse than a pile of cash.

              They’re doing way worse their balance sheet or whatever only quoted them at $770,000 total revenue last quarter. Overall they lost 325 million dollars last quarter.

            I think you meant revenue and not profit. I believe that they are still operating at a loss of several hundred million dollars with a shrinking user base.

              Net Loss: (327,599.7) (Thousands).

              That’s $327.5 Million lost last quarter. Holy shit.

      your share price is wrong, its $31.06 right now down from $35 at opening today. Hopefully it’ll be down to less than a penny before Trump is allowed to sell them, that would be amazing. It was down to $30 earlier, but its rebounding slightly on people buying the dip so they can lose it tomorrow as it continues to drop. Less than a month ago (May 30) it was up to $55/share, so in 2.5 weeks its dropped 44%.

        Welp, time to buy shorts…or is it puts? (I’m not a stock trader, which ever is the one you buy when you’re predicting a drop in stock price lmao)

          Id recommend doing neither if youre not comfortable with the terms.

          Shorts can be particularly dangerous. Puts/Calls tend to at least be a static gain or loss, although it can be large as well.

          In this instance where you want to bet money on a stock falling, you would buy a put or sell a call. You can buy and sell for different time frames and different total amounts, but that’s extra complexity. Start very small, standard length and only 1 contract at a time.

          Trump Media trades on NASDAQ, and of course uses a ticker that is also in use on the NYSE. Use djt:nasdaq to keep up to date on its falling stock price.
