- Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group dropped 8% in premarket trading on Friday after a jury found former U.S. president Donald Trump guilty of falsifying documents to cover up a payment to silence a porn star ahead of the 2016 election.
The Republican presidential candidate for this year's election owns a majority stake in TMTG, the parent of his social media platform Truth Social.

"On balance, it is marginally negative for Trump in this 'least important' of his four criminal cases," said Grace Fan, managing director of global policy research at TS Lombard.The firm was valued at $9.2 billion as of last close. Earlier this month, TMTG said its quarterly net loss widened to $327.6 million, from $210,300 the year before.It has been our privilege to have the trust and support of our East Coast communities for the last 200 years.
