US election 2024: Donald Trump's Truth social defeats Elon Musk's X
Donald Trump's Truth Social is now worth more than Elon Musk's X, thanks to a recent run-up in the shares of the parent company of the former president's social media platform, as per a report.
Trump Media & Technology Group is now valued at over $10 billion after its shares more than quadrupled since late September. Meanwhile, X Holdings is valued at around $9.4 billion, based on the most recent value the investment group Fidelity assigned to its stake in the company formerly known as Twitter, AP reported.
The stock of Trump Media, or TMTG, tends to move more with Trump’s re-election odds than on its own profit prospects and investors have seen his chances of retaking the presidency improving of late. On Tuesday, the stock rose more than 12 per cent to $53.30, on top of a 21.6 per cent gain Monday. The stock was moving so sharply that trading was briefly halted several times during the morning. The stock had dropped to roughly $12 late last month.

Trump created TMTG after he was banned from Twitter and Facebook following the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. He owns about 57 per cent of the company but has no role in running it.
