(9min)

Summary

  • In my opinion, Trump Media's existing business model is unsustainable and faces significant risks.
  • Truth Social, Trump's social media platform, struggles to attract a broad audience and lacks user engagement.
  • Shorting Trump Media shares is unwise due to high borrowing costs, and buying shares is not recommended due to the company's flaws and uncertain future viability.
  • I advise against seeking quick gains from Trump Media stock. The stock is an obvious "Sell" to me, but don't short it if you manage to find shares for that.
