Trump Media has said that it is ‘highly dependent on the popularity and presence’ of former president Donald Trump. Photograph: AP Photo/Yuki IwamuraFormer US president Donald Trump’s social media start-up climbed as much as 58 per cent in its first session as a publicly traded company, after the most high-profile blank-check deal in years added billions to his fortune – at least on paper.

The company’s post-merger performance on the Nasdaq under the symbol DJT will test Trump’s ability to capture the attention of individual traders and momentum investors who use it as a way to bet on his push for re-election. Its operations have so far struggled to generate a profit, losing $49 million in the nine months through September while delivering just $3.4 million in revenue.
