DJT dropped 5.98 today and another 0.62 in after hours trading, closing at $26.00 even.

lmao

[-] baru@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

That's still a really high market cap. Even 2.60 per share would be way too high.

Yeah its burn rate is roughly 45 million/yr, and it only has 200mil on hand. Total income was 5 mil, with a 50 mil spend.

You could call it a "growth" phase, but its losing users, which is the only growth that matter with social media.

Its really just a vanity/cash grab project. Being a meme stock, that doesbt mean it wont make someone money, but it will mainly be the ones that got in early, pyramid scheme style.

Its really just a vanity/cash grab project.

Even that is overly charitable. It really is nothing but a blatant attempt at money laundering.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 13 points 6 months ago

So 5-6 days before it worth $0.

The fun starts when it falls low enough to get delisted from NASDAQ

[-] mx_smith@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

I can’t wait for it to be a penny stock.

[-] MagicShel@programming.dev 8 points 6 months ago

Oh no! I'm out of damn popcorn!

[-] finthechat@kbin.social 4 points 6 months ago

Oh no! I'm out of money!

-from the idiots who bought DJT

That certainly has a lot to do with it. That, and being a worthless money-loser of a company tied to a conman traitor clown who has bankrupted every company he’s ever owned or run.

Quite honestly, one of the funniest things About this is that the company that's driving all of this, Trump Media and Technology Group

CEO, President and Director: Devin Nunes

I shit you not https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Media_%26_Technology_Group

Oooh that's good 😂

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago

The funny thing is I’m pretty sure I read that when he got the job and I promptly forgot because fuck that clown lol

[-] marx2k@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Exactly. I honestly hope Trump flips shit on him and wrecks him publically just so they can both diaf together

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 17 points 6 months ago

I'm starting to wonder if he truly, genuinely believed he'd be able to walk away with billions from this garbage. It's cratering so fast and so far, it could end up de-listed from NASDAQ and relegated to penny-stock status.

So... How can I help make that happen faster?

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

I don't think he thinks that far ahead. Only ever far enough to get to the next grift.

[-] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 5 points 6 months ago

Sell calls, if you have the money.

For Wired, all you have to do is clear your cookies. Or better yet, use an extension to deny the cookies automatically.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

Private browsing will do it

[-] Illegalmexicant@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Automatically deny, you say? Thank you

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

The face eating leopard that we snuggled up to, that had already eaten numerous faces, is eating our face now! Oh no!

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Hm. I wonder if the market insiders have any advance knowledge of trump’s legal issues worsening so the social medial platform is a symptom of those impending issues.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

Or, hear me out, any method of stock valuation that isn’t “hurr durr meme stock to the m00n!” Shows that DJT is worthless

[-] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 5 points 6 months ago

It’s just no one wants to buy it, it’s a dog. You have to sell for what the next person will pay, and his faithful are out of money to buy your shares.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

He's the only reason the Twitter clone has as many eyes on it as it does at all.
