Truth Social to sell fast access to Trump's social media posts

2 hours ago

President Trump's Truth Social is selling early access to his posts to high-frequency traders for $100,000 per month, raising insider trading and ethics concerns.
Traders can profit from Trump's market-moving posts on tariffs, wars, and central bank policies, with critics arguing it gives an unfair advantage over retail investors.
Trump Media faces financial losses and a 75% stock drop since Trump took office, relying on this service to double revenue, while Democrats threaten investigations.
Ethics experts and critics warn of using public office for private gain, given Trump's influence on markets and potential conflicts with his policy announcements.

Trump Media plans to charge for high-speed access to Truth Social posts, allowing Wall Street firms to profit from early market-moving information.
Critics label the new service, Truth PSI, as exploitation of the presidency for personal gain, given Trump's role as top poster and major shareholder.
Trump uses Truth Social to announce decisions affecting markets, such as posts on Iran and tariffs, which can influence oil prices and inflation.

Trump Media & Technology Group, owner of Truth Social, is launching a paid service called Truth API to provide Wall Street firms with high-speed access to market-moving posts from influential accounts.
The service, starting 1 August, aims to create a steady revenue stream for the loss-making company by charging institutional clients for instant, 24/7 updates, potentially including posts from Donald Trump, the platform's most-followed user.
Financial traders are the target audience, as delays in accessing Trump's posts, which often cause market swings, can be costly; the move may force firms currently copying data without permission to purchase the official feed.

Truth Social is launching a paid API for Wall Street firms to access real-time posts from Donald Trump and other top accounts, aimed at monetizing market-moving content.
Trump's posts on Truth Social have previously influenced stock, oil, and cryptocurrency markets, with algorithms using faster data for trading profits.
This move adds to Trump Media's revenue streams amid criticism of conflicts of interest, as Trump profits from business ventures tied to his presidency.

President Donald Trump executed over 21,000 securities trades in his first year back in office, with total value between $600 million and $1.86 billion.
Trump averaged 85 trades per market day, with 10 days accounting for a quarter of all trades, often coinciding with market volatility from his policy announcements.
There were over 200 instances where Trump bought and sold the same stock on the same day across different accounts, and occasional same-account same-day buys and sells.

Trumponomics is not a coherent economic ideology but a personalist system focused on creating leverage through emergencies, threats, and demands for tribute.
Trump uses emergency declarations extensively—nine in his first six months—to justify interventions like tariffs, which often lack legal or economic consistency.
The threat-tribute method involves creating pain via tariffs or sanctions, accepting concessions (e.g., investments or policy changes), then removing the pain, as seen with Japan, the EU, and Intel.
