The price of Trump Media closed trading Friday down nearly 20% for the week. DJT shares, which dropped by more than 8% within the first hour of trading Friday, eked out a slight gain by the end of the day. Shares closed up 18 cents at $32.59, an increase of around .5%. That closing price was more than $38 lower than what its shares first sold for when the social media company began public trading on March 26. Shares of Trump Media, which owns the Truth Social app, have dropped by 47.

Trump Media began public trading a day after it merged with the shell company Digital World Acquisition Corp., which was created to help a private firm go public. Trump Media last year had revenue of just $4.1 million, and reported a net loss of $58 million. That performance and the relatively high price of the company’s stock have drawn keen interest from short sellers, who make trades that are effectively bets that a company’s share price will drop.
