In a recent development, Trump Media & Technology’s stock took a nosedive by 18.3% following the registration of potential sale of tens of millions of additional shares. This plunge in stock value wiped out hundreds of millions of dollars from the company’s market value, impacting former President Donald J. Trump’s majority stake in the company.
The initial days of trading saw a surge in Trump Media’s stock value after the merger with Digital World Acquisition Corp., a SPAC, last month. However, this upward trend has since reversed, with the stock dropping by around 60%. The registration filing included more than 146 million shares of stock that could potentially be sold, as well as 21 million shares that were converted after the exercise of warrants.
It is common practice for companies that merge with SPACs to file a registration statement for the sale of additional securities held by early investors post the completion of the deal. Trump Media, the parent company of Truth Social, a social media platform launched by Donald J. Trump, has been grappling with the repercussions of this decision.
Investors and analysts are closely monitoring the situation to gauge the long-term impact of these developments on Trump Media’s financial health and market standing. The company’s future trajectory remains uncertain as it navigates through this challenging period of fluctuating stock values and market dynamics.
