Trump Media Soars in Post-IPO Surge
Shares Jump Following Market Debut
Valuation Tops $6 Billion Despite Low Revenue
WEB Trump Media Technology Group Corp (TMTG), the media and technology company majority-owned by former U.S. President Donald Trump, has seen its valuation climb to over $6 billion following its recent initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq.
Despite this surge, the company's flagship platform, Truth Social, has reportedly generated only $33 million in revenue. However, investors remain optimistic about the platform's potential, particularly among the former president's loyal supporters.
Shares of Trump Media, which owns the Truth Social social networking site, jumped 5% at the opening bell on Friday, continuing the upward trend seen since its market debut on Tuesday. This surge has increased the company's market capitalization to approximately $6.5 billion.
The IPO has been met with mixed reactions. Some analysts have questioned the company's long-term prospects, given its dependence on a single platform and its niche audience. However, others argue that the company's focus on conservative and anti-establishment voices could give it a competitive edge in the increasingly polarized media landscape.
