(2,742 posts)The G.O.P. felon announced a week or so ago that he "would not sell" now.
So if he does sell, at whatever price, he will have SUCKERED his investors and made them into LOSERS.
That's clearly against the law. And everyone is watching to see what the republicon felon-in-chief will do.

(1,392 posts)That is for suckers and losers. No one will arrest him if he sells. Now if he took rich folks for a ride, he may have to pay. But taking the common folks for a ride and then selling the stock? He can sleep soundly on this one.

Several involved were not allowed to lend shares to short sellers, and there were punitive terms for borrowing the stock.
Short selling was set up to be pretty tough to do bargain hunting.
Even the short-sellers that did get in may take a beating too, with the fees eating up the profits or more.
Think. Again.
(17,324 posts)I guess they knew it was going to get overpriced due to trump's name and followers.

(69,656 posts)I'm not sure who imposed those restrictions but, I was public information quite a while back.
Similar to the restrictions put on TFG about selling before a certain date. Then, he couldn't sell at peak & tank the stock for everyone else.

(49 posts)The current value of lead is about $1.15 per pound, or about $2300 per ton. I think DJT value is closer to that of shit.

(22,941 posts)My understanding is that Trump can't dump...er...sell his shares if the price drops below 12.
I hope he has to eat another financial loss from this grift.

(167 posts)He invested 0$ in this venture, his "contribution" is being the only posting lure on the network and his name.
Unless the stock falls into pennies, he should get something in the $100M to $1B range.

(24,225 posts)How many people would actually buy it?
They would get nothing in return for their stock shares. It would amount to a donation to Trump. Just another Trump scam. He gets to write off the losses AND collect money from the deluded ones who buy the stock.

(167 posts)The terms of the lockup allowed it to end on Sept. 19 if the price was above $12 (which it is). If it had fallen below $12, the lockup on Trump selling shares wouldn't end until Sept. 25.

(1,192 posts)Seems like that was cited as the "true worth" of the shares according to accepted stock metrics... about 12 cents each.
Oh, nevermind-- I was responding to the subject line before I read the post--
thinking "the sweet spot to buy would be about 12 cents", if it was any other stock or owner...

Trump wins and it's 100+ per share... Trump loses and it's de-listed worth pennies.

(3,056 posts)The survey, released late Tuesday, was conducted from Sept. 12 to Sept. 14, after the first presidential debate between the rivals. It marks a change from a survey from late July, which showed 50% expecting Trump to win, compared with 37% predicting a Harris win.
DJT stock surged after the assassination attempt on the ex-president on July 13 but has fallen steadily since it became clear Harris would become the Democratic candidate after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race.
Shares are down 76% since they hit a one-year high of $66 on March 27. The stock has lost 48% in the past three months.

(23,112 posts)Also coincidentally, TSF wasn't seen for a week prior to that charade. Was he working on the choreography to get it all down, including the fight, fight, fight, gestures afterwards?
Then, last Friday, before the second charade, the stock shot up abruptly 10% before closing. The next news we have about TSF is everyone in the media talking about a gunman while TSF was golfing again. Only, this time, the stock didn't shoot up as he probably expecting it to. It sank instead. ** beating a dead horse **

(569 posts)The lower it goes, the more money I make. The volatility that will ensue when Trump starts liquidating at the end of the week will also increase my gains. Current gain (on paper is 36%).

(35,512 posts)He's made some undercover deal with Russian buddies, or whatever. Nobody will ever know, of course. The MAGAs will be left holding the worthless stocks.
Let this be the last money the MAGAs ever give him. Let them be so angry that they refuse to vote for him
Mr.WeRP
(569 posts)He used weasel words to say he wasnt selling
But if he sold a ITM special covered call contract at $12/share expiring this Friday to say, a Saudi prince, then he would be technically not lying. The shares would be assigned to the contract buyer and Trump would receive $1.5b.
Dread Pirate Roberts
(1,934 posts)Just a way of funneling money to Trump at the expense of anyone dumb enough to invest in this idiotic endeavor. Let me see the guy bankrupted two casinos , an airline, a steak company, a wine company, a vodka company, ran a sham university , misused inaugural funds, but Truth Social oh this one will work for sure. The seed money for this latest fiasco was just a bunch of rich donors bypassing the already lax campaign finance laws to enrich their benefactor.

(10,808 posts)Of course, since he undoubtedly leveraged and borrowed against the stock when it was stronger when it drops to $5 bucks he'll be a couple billion in the hole.
Just add it to the list of failures that somehow leave him with plenty of borrowed money to in his pockets.

Russian investor made millions off insider trading tied to Trump Media, court docs say
"...Postolnikov wound up making numerous investments in Digital World in September and October before the merger was announced. In the week following the announcement, he sold substantially all of his holdings for a profit of roughly $22.8 million, according to Troianos affidavit.
...The alleged insider trades arent the only financial connection between Postolnikov and the Trump company.
Dominica-based Paxum Bank, which public records show is controlled by Postolnikov, was reportedly the conduit of $8 million in loans to Trump Media, according to the Washington Post. The money came from a mysterious entity called the ES Family Trust, which listed a Paxum Bank employee named Angel Pacheco as the trustee, according to the Post.
Trump Media has filed suit against the Washington Post for defamation. The company acknowledged last year to the SEC that it owes at least $2 million to the ES Family Trust..."
