Trump's Wealth Surges by $600 Million on DJT Stock Rally and New Data Service

Trump’s net worth jumped about $600 million in under a month, led by a rally in his majority-held Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) stake, now worth roughly $1.49 billion based on about 144 million shares at a $10.38 close. Forbes still puts his wealth around $6.5 billion. The gain comes as TMTG launched Truth API, a real-time data service offering institutional traders access to Truth Social posts, potentially creating a new revenue stream but drawing criticism over market-moving information access.
