(NASDAQ:DJT), trading at $16,137 with robust average daily volume of 107.73M shares, known for its social media platform Truth Social and video streaming platform Truth+, announced its plans to enter the financial services sector with a series of America First-themed investment vehicles. According to InvestingPro data, the stock has shown resilience with a 5.25% return over the past six months. The company has filed trademark applications for a range of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and separately managed accounts (SMAs) under the Truth.Fi brand, signaling a strategic expansion into financial technology.
The proposed investment products include the Truth.Fi Made in America ETF, Truth.Fi U.S. Energy Independence ETF, and Truth.Fi Bitcoin Plus ETF, along with their corresponding SMA versions. These offerings are intended to align with American energy and manufacturing sectors, as well as incorporating strategies related to bitcoin.

Yorkville Advisors, set to act as the Registered Investment Advisor, will construct the products and navigate the regulatory process, pending necessary approvals.
Devin Nunes, CEO and Chairman of TMTG, expressed the company's goal to provide investors with alternatives to what he termed "woke funds" and to address "debanking problems" prevalent in the market.

The launch of Truth.Fi as a financial services and FinTech brand is part of TMTG's broader strategy to offer a suite of financial products that resonate with America First principles. However, as with any forward-looking statements, these plans are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that could affect their eventual realization.
