Update Dec. 16 

Not a good sign to have this many executives and board members fleeing already. The stock has absolutely no reason for still trading this close to $20.

  • Digital World fell as Trump announced a digital trading card on Thursday after market speculation regarding the announcement sent the SPAC higher.
  • The SPAC still faces SEC approval risk that would cause a 50% dip to $10.30 and the business model remains nearly non-existent.
  • The stock isn't worth the billions assigned to the current price at $20.
While the Digital World Acquisition (NASDAQ:DWAC) shareholders continue to languish in purgatory, Donald Trump is busy releasing digital trading cards, not building Truth Social and Trump Media & Technology Group ("TMTG"). The stock still trades near $20 despite no signs the SPAC deal will close anytime soon due to regulatory issues. My investment thesis remains Bearish on the stock with the proposed valuation out of touch with the reality now that Elon Musk owns Twitter reducing the free speech aspects of Trump Media.
