The Daily Money: Trump Media posts a loss
View Date:2024-12-23 11:03:26
Good morning! It's Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.
Trump Media reported a net loss of $327.6 million in the first quarter of 2024 and brought in $770,500 in revenue, Kinsey Crowley reports. Stock prices tumbled after the announcement.
Given the company's volatility and potential for overvaluation, experts have likened it to a meme stock, noting that Trump Media investors may be more ideologically driven than your average anti-short seller. The company's CEO lauded its "legion of retail shareholders" in a release this week.
Here's the latest on the turbulent stock.

Bankruptcy documents detail how Red Lobster has struggled in various ways, including a 30% drop in guests since 2019. In a 124-page document obtained by USA TODAY on Tuesday, Red Lobster CEO Jonathan Tibus explains why the seafood chain filed for bankruptcy on Sunday and why he supports the decision.
