Truth Social: A Financial Rollercoaster for Donald Trump

Truth Social's Volatile Journey

Former President Donald Trump's stake in Truth Social and Trump Media & Technology Group experienced staggering fluctuations, reaching over $6 billion in March. However, nearly six months later, losses and a shrinking revenue stream have driven that valuation below $2 billion.

The Decline in Share Value

The stock’s valuation has dropped by more than 70% since its peak in late March, marking a significant decline. On Wednesday, the shares reached a new low, raising concerns among investors.

  • Trump’s Stake: Trump owns approximately 60% of Truth Social.
  • Investors' Response: Many retail investors, primarily Trump's supporters, express their frustrations on the platform.

Future Outlook

Despite these losses being only theoretical for Trump, who cannot sell his shares yet, the situation has highlighted the challenges facing Truth Social and its financial sustainability moving forward.
