Just a reminder how high level executive stock works. They don’t make big money selling off their stock. That only happens when they are “adjusting” holdings to minimize taxation.
The real money comes from using the stock as collateral for loans. Those loans somehow never get repaid.
Why would loan institutions do this? Because they use that stock to hedge investments so they make money whether the stock goes up or down.
Retail investors are always the prey animal here. They don’t understand this system.
Not a single concept of a plan to turn this business around? By all means let’s hand him the keys to the US economy.

Trump is in a bind. If he sells his stock he completely screws the morons that invested in the company with confidence that trump would make them lots of money. If he holds he’ll continue to lose money and risk losing it all. I think he is holding until it is clear he has lost the election. I’ll take a stab and say he sells Nov6.

What if Trump holding onto those shares is a strategic move, not desperation? Maybe he knows that low points can be the perfect setup for a comeback. If investors thrive on volatility, could he be banking on a future resurgence? Isn’t there a lesson here about betting on yourself, no matter the odds?

Trump sinks to a new low every day. Nothing this man creates can have value. Worthless is just what he is.

Even at 10 bucks a share his chunk is worth over a billion dollars, those share should be trading at a nickel or maybe six cents.

I didn’t think it could hold 12!
This thing is going to single digits forsure 🎢
John Rekenthaler, vice president of research at Morningstar ([MORN](https://qz.com/quote/MORN)),[ previously told Quartz](https://qz.com/trump-media-djt-stock-presidential-election-1851630168?rev=1724426149330) that he would “expect the stock to go to zero or something close to it, if [Trump] were to lose the election.”
Everything he touches, dies.
