Donald Trump's social media initiative, Truth Social, has achieved a remarkable feat, overtaking Elon Musk's X in market value. The former president's platform has seen a recent surge in the stock value of its parent company, putting its total worth over USD 10 billion.

This dramatic increase is attributed to investors' optimism regarding Trump's potential re-election. The stock of Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) more than quadrupled since late September, reflecting growing confidence in Trump's political aspirations.

Despite TMTG's current financial struggles, including a substantial loss in revenue for a recent quarter, its market perception appears closely tied to political dynamics. Conversely, Elon Musk's X Holdings, the rebranded Twitter, now holds a valuation of around USD 9.4 billion, according to Fidelity.
