Senator Warner Urges Wall Street to Reject Trump's Paid Early-Access Feed
DJT sits 42% above its 52-week low of $6.96.
Summary
Senator Mark Warner is pressuring top financial trade groups to publicly disavow TMTG's new Truth API, a paid data feed offering early access to Trump's Truth Social posts. The product, pitched at up to $100,000 per month, would give subscribers a speed advantage on market-moving presidential communications. Warner argues this creates an information asymmetry that personally benefits the president. This follows TMTG's recent pivot toward monetizing its platform amid a $405.9 million Q1 net loss and a stock trading near all-time lows. The political backlash could deter potential customers and invite regulatory scrutiny, threatening a key revenue initiative.
At the time of this announcement, DJT was trading at $9.88 on NASDAQ in the Technology sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.7B. The 52-week trading range was $6.96 to $20.92.
