President-elect Donald J. Trump announced Friday that he does not intend to sell shares of his social media platform, Truth Social.
Trump took to the platform to address false and “probably illegal rumors” that he is interested in selling shares of Trump Media & Technology Group ($DJT), which is Truth Social’s progenitor.
“There are fake, untrue, and probably illegal rumors and/or statements made by, perhaps, market manipulators or short sellers, that I am interested in selling shares of Truth. THOSE RUMORS OR STATEMENTS ARE FALSE. I HAVE NO INTENTION OF SELLING!” he wrote:
“I hereby request that the people who have set off these fake rumors or statements, and who may have done so in the past, be immediately investigated by the appropriate authorities. Truth is an important part of our historic win, and I deeply believe in it,” he added.
