Trump Media Wants to Give Truth Social Its Own Stock

How the Deal Would Work

The spinoff is tied to Trump Media's previously announced merger with TAE Technologies, a nuclear fusion company, in a deal valued at over $6 billion. Once that merger closes, Truth Social would be separated out into a new standalone company — referred to in filings as "SpinCo" — and shares would be distributed to existing Trump Media stockholders.

That new company would then merge with Texas Ventures Acquisition III, a blank-check firm listed on the Nasdaq. TAE's energy business and some of Trump Media's other assets would stay with the existing public company.

Why It Matters

A spinoff would give Truth Social its own public market valuation, separate from whatever Trump Media becomes after absorbing a fusion energy company. For investors, it creates two distinct bets: one on the social platform and one on the energy play.

Truth Social is the platform Trump uses to reach supporters directly and has become a key channel for presidential announcements. Giving it a standalone stock would likely draw significant retail investor attention — for better or worse.

No final agreements are in place yet, and the discussions may not result in a completed deal.

Trump Media's stock has dropped about 18% this year. Nothing like a spinoff announcement to change the conversation.

How to Budget Every Payday: 5 Moves So You Never Worry About Money

By Briefs Finance

A median earner could make about $4.7 million over a career, yet most retire with closer to $13,000 in the bank because of a keeping problem, not an income problem.
Audit your money, save $2,000, pay off credit card debt, then automate a 75/15/10 split across three bank accounts.
Earn more only after your system is in place, then protect what you build with an accountant, attorneys, the right insurance, and an estate plan.

By Nate Gregory

An ETF is a basket of stocks, so one purchase spreads your money across many companies instead of riding on just one.
Jaspreet Singh laid out five portfolios of three ETFs each, built for kids, cash flow, growth, slow and steady growth, and protection from a weaker dollar.
Based on 10-year average returns, $500 a month could grow to between about $660,000 and $3.1 million over 30 years, though past returns never guarantee future ones.

By Briefs Finance

National Debt at $40 Trillion: Why Inflation Is the Hidden Tax, and Who Profits From It

By Nate Gregory

Time magazine asked President Trump how he'd tackle the $40 trillion national debt, and he suggested inflation could help pay it off, a cost that lands on everyday Americans.
From 1971 to 2025, cars, houses, and college outpaced both inflation and incomes, while the S&P 500 grew more than 33,000% with dividends reinvested.
The U.S. can default, inflate, or outgrow its debt, and history shows each path rewards different assets.

Brazil Stock Market Crash: Why Lula's Win Matters to U.S. Investors

By Nate Gregory

Brazil's stock market fell more than 20% in a few days, and its currency dropped 8%, after Lula won a presidential election investors expected him to lose.
The shock reaches U.S. investors through coffee and beef prices, the BRICS push away from the dollar, and a market that had become an investor favorite.
The last time Lula first won, in 2002, Brazil's stock market fell more than 20% and then grew 12x by 2008, though nobody knows if that will repeat.
