Why It Matters: DWAC is seeing high interest on the forum after Trump's new social media app Truth Social launched on Apple Inc.’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) App Store on Sunday.
It was reported that the app — created by Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) — encountered a “partial outage” just hours after launching on the App Store.
Trump unveiled his plans for the app in October, after being banned from social media platforms Twitter Inc. (NYSE:TWTR), Meta Platforms Inc.'s (NASDAQ:FB) Facebook and Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) YouTube in the aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021 riots on Capitol Hill.
Price Action: Digital World shares closed almost 1.4% lower in Friday’s regular trading session at $84.32 and further fell almost 1% in the after-hours session to $83.50.
