Trump Media shares surge after announcing expansion into financial services including crypto and ETFs

Trump Media and Technology Group announced Wednesday that it is expanding into financial services, including investment vehicles.
Shares of the Truth Social parent company, which trade under the ticker DJT, jumped more than 15% in premarket trading.
The financial services division will be known as Truth.Fi, and it will be started with up to $250 million from the company that will be custodied with Charles Schwab, according to the press release. That money will be allocated to customized exchange traded funds and cryptocurrencies, among other investment vehicles.
The company said it expects to launch products and services, including its own investment vehicles, later this year.
“Truth.Fi is a natural expansion of the Truth Social movement. We began by creating a free-speech social media platform, added an ultra-fast TV streaming service, and now we’re moving into investment products and decentralized finance,” said TMTG CEO and Chairman Devin Nunes in the press release. “Developing American First investment vehicles is another step toward our goal of creating a robust ecosystem through which American patriots can protect themselves from the ever-present threat of cancellation, censorship, debanking, and privacy violations committed by Big Tech and woke corporations.”
The announcement comes after complaints from Republicans that banks have treated some conservatives unfairly. During a remote appearance last week at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Trump complained to Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan that the firm was locking out and de-banking conservatives.
“I hope you start opening your bank to conservatives because many conservatives complain that the banks are not allowing them to do business within the bank, and that included a place called Bank of America,” Trump said.
The president also took on Jamie Dimon, CEO at JPMorgan Chase, the largest U.S. bank by assets.
“You and Jamie and everybody, I hope you’re going to open your banks to conservatives because what you’re doing is wrong,” Trump said.
The remarks continued a simmering feud between Republicans and the nation’s largest banks, with a flashpoint coming last year when a group of state attorneys general filed a complaint alleging that the institutions were discriminating against customers based on religious and political affiliations. Officials at the banks have denied wrongdoing.
Complaints about de-banking are also common among the crypto community, which was aligned with Trump during his presidential campaign.
This is breaking news. Please refresh for updates.
Trump Media, the media empire founded by former President Donald Trump, has announced a major expansion into the financial services industry, including offerings in cryptocurrency and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This news has caused a surge in Trump Media’s shares, with investors eager to capitalize on the company’s new ventures.The move into financial services represents a significant shift for Trump Media, which has primarily focused on conservative news and entertainment content. By entering the world of finance, the company is aiming to diversify its revenue streams and tap into the growing interest in digital assets and ETFs.
The decision to enter the crypto market comes at a time when cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are reaching new highs and gaining mainstream acceptance. Trump Media’s foray into ETFs, on the other hand, will allow the company to offer a broader range of investment options to its audience.
Investors have responded positively to the news, driving up Trump Media’s stock price by double digits in after-hours trading. The company’s CEO, who has been a vocal supporter of cryptocurrencies, expressed enthusiasm about the expansion and emphasized the potential for growth in the financial services sector.
As Trump Media continues to expand its offerings and reach, it will be interesting to see how the company’s new ventures in financial services will impact its overall business strategy and bottom line. With the crypto market booming and interest in ETFs on the rise, Trump Media’s move into these areas could prove to be a lucrative one for both the company and its investors.

Hollywood star Matthew McConaughey stuns NFL fans by announcing favorite team after 50 years in rivalry vs Bradley Cooper
Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders need all the help they can get on Sunday.
With the Philadelphia Eagles favored at home in the NFC Championship, Daniels is attempting to become the first starting rookie quarterback to reach the Super Bowl.

Matthew McConaughey made a huge announcement on his NFL allegiancesCredit: Getty A single tweet weighed heavily in Daniels’ favor and will have even bigger sway for the Commanders if they reach the big game in New Orleans on February 9.
“Hailing since 1974,” posted Matthew McConaughey, who’s one of Hollywood’s most respected actors.
Fans were stunned to see Texan McConaughey proudly representing the Commanders — and he had a vintage Washington Redskins jacket to prove it.
“Amazing you still have this,” one fan tweeted. “That’s a gem of a jacket. I have an old Starter windbreaker and some other gear I’m glad I held onto, but this is phenomenal.”
“Alright alright alright,” a second fan wrote.
“Yessir, I’m with you on this one,” a third fan posted. “Team Jayden all the way!”
“HTTR baby!” a fourth fan said.
The 55-year-old McConaughey announcing on the same day of the NFC Championship that he is a secret Washington supporter is news in itself.
But the primary reason that McConaughey’s picture made such an impact is that he is widely associated with the University of Texas’ college football program.
McConaughey regularly attends Longhorns games and was close to the team during a recent 13-3 season that saw Steve Sarkisian’s crew reach the College Football Playoff semifinals.

Bradley Cooper is a big time Eagles supporter The actor from Dazed and Confused, Interstellar, Wolf of Wall Street and True Detective was born in 1969.
Which means that McConaughey became a Washington fan when he was five years old.
The Redskins went 10-4 in 1974, reaching the Divisional Round.
That Washington team was coached by George Allen and featured Billy Kilmer at quarterback.
Washington has appeared in five Super Bowls, winning three.
McConaughey was apparently a fan during the Redskins’ franchise-best run from 1986-92 under then-head coach Joe Gibbs.
Jayden Daniels told the NFL he was the next great quarterback as 13-year-old kidThe Dallas Buyers Club leading man is now apparently a huge Daniels fan, while rooting against Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley and the NFC East-rival Eagles.
“Kept it a secret until they were good,” a fan tweeted. “Alright.”
While Philadelphia and Washington play for the NFC’s spot in the Super Bowl, the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills battle for the AFC crown.
Actor Bradley Cooper, a well-known Eagles fan, showed up pregame to represent his team.
Rob McElhenney, co-owner of soccer club Wrexham AFC alongside actor Ryan Reynolds, is also one of the Eagles’ biggest supporters.

In a surprising turn of events, Hollywood star Matthew McConaughey has finally revealed his favorite NFL team after 50 years of intense rivalry with fellow actor Bradley Cooper.McConaughey, known for his iconic roles in films such as “Dallas Buyers Club” and “Interstellar,” shocked fans when he announced during a recent interview that he has always been a die-hard fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
For decades, McConaughey and Cooper have playfully bantered about their favorite teams, with McConaughey claiming allegiance to the Washington Football Team and Cooper staunchly supporting the Philadelphia Eagles. The rivalry between the two actors has been a source of entertainment for fans and media alike.
But now, McConaughey’s declaration of his love for the Steelers has left many fans scratching their heads. The Texas-born actor explained that he has always admired the Steelers’ history, tradition, and blue-collar work ethic, which align with his own values.
While Cooper has yet to publicly respond to McConaughey’s revelation, it’s safe to say that this unexpected twist in their friendly rivalry has added a new layer of excitement to their ongoing sports feud.
Only time will tell if McConaughey’s newfound allegiance to the Steelers will bring him closer to victory over his longtime rival, or if Cooper will have the last laugh in this epic battle of NFL fandom. Either way, one thing is for sure – Hollywood’s favorite football feud just got a whole lot more interesting.

(L-R) Sturla Holm Laegreid of Norway takes second place, Tommaso Giacomel of Italy takes first place, Johannes Thingnes Boe of Norway takes third place during the Mass Men of the IBU World Cup Biathlon Ruhpolding. Sven Hoppe/dpa Biathlon superstar Johannes Thingnes Bø was on the podium on Sunday just a day after the emotional announcement that he will retire at the end of the season.
The World Cup leader was third in the men’s 15-kilometre mass start in Ruhpolding, Germany with two missed targets.
Italy’s Tommaso Giacomel had a clean shooting to claim his maiden World Cup win, while Bø’s Norwegian team-mate Sturla Holm Lægreid was second.
“It’s just insane, I’m completely out of this world. It’s been a real tough time for our team and striking back today, showing everyone what we are capable of, it’s great,” Giacomel said.
Bø shocked the biathlon world on Saturday, saying that it’s time to focus on his family and that he decided to retire before the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano-Cortina d’Ampezzo.
“Originally I planned to continue another year but the Olympics crave even more from me and those around me,” he said.
“I know I could manage to win more often because I have a wonderful gift. I hardly have to train to be number one, but it is not enough to keep going for another year,” he admitted.
Öberg wins women’s mass start, leader Preuss on podium
Sweden’s Elvira Öberg claimed her second win this season with victory in the women’s 12.5km mass start.
The 2022 Olympic relay champion hit all targets and clocked the fastest time of 33:00.5 minutes.
World Cup leader Franziska Preuss was second, with one missed target, and extended her advantage at the top after the race on home German soil. Jeanne Richard of France was third.
Preuss increased her lead to 142 points ahead of France’s Lou Jeanmonnot, who was ninth in Ruhpolding.
The next stop for men and women is Italy’s Antholz-Anterselva on January 23-26.
Norwegian biathlon star Johannes Thingnes Bø shocked the sports world yesterday when he announced his retirement from competitive biathlon. However, just one day later, Bø found himself back on the podium at the World Cup event in Antholz, Italy.Despite the emotional rollercoaster of his retirement announcement, Bø showed his incredible skill and determination on the course, finishing in second place in the men’s sprint event. The crowd erupted in cheers as Bø stood on the podium, a bittersweet moment for the beloved biathlon star.
Fans around the world were left wondering if Bø’s retirement announcement was premature, as he clearly still has the talent and drive to compete at the highest level. Whatever the future holds for Bø, one thing is for certain – his legacy in the sport of biathlon is secure, and his presence on the podium today was a fitting tribute to his incredible career.
