Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) Shares Plunge During Pre-Market Trading

Published November 7, 2024

Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp (NASDAQ:DJT) saw a notable drop of 17% in pre-market trading on Thursday, as reported by Benzinga Pro. This decline follows a robust 6% increase the day before, which was fueled by Donald Trump’s anticipated return to the White House for a second term.

The recent decline is largely due to investors cashing in on profits after the excitement surrounding Trump's political comeback. During the pre-market session, the stock fell to $29.84, marking a significant decrease.

On the same day, broader U.S. stocks might open positively following a strong rally after the elections. On Wednesday, former President Trump secured a victory after an intense contest against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Futures for the small-cap Russell 2000 showed a 0.4% increase, indicating a hopeful start for the market.
