Actions to help prevent short selling...Thanks to DJT

For the possible volatility to come.

If you decide to instruct your broker not to make your shares available for lending to short sellers, the following is a sample of the language you can use in your email or letter to the Branch Manager of your brokerage account:

[Broker Name]
[Broker Address]

Attn: Branch Manager

My Account [Account Number]

Dear Sir or Madam:

Please accept this written instruction to make sure that the following securities are held in my cash account only and accordingly are not available for any stock loan activities. I hereby expressly opt-out of any securities lending programs and instruct you to not loan out any of my shares.

Securities:

[Number] shares of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (DJT) and any DJT shares subsequently acquired.

Please confirm receipt and compliance with this request.

Yeah, you can short the shears yourself and keep the winnings.

There are always two sides to a trade or kind of trade as start-up companies constantly evolve while we try and navigate the unknowns that are always there to varying degrees. I gave you a thumbs up for this post, ark88. gdemocracy

Or simply place a long-term sell order with your shares at a ridicously high price like $20 US.
Comment by rabbitawakens on Apr 18, 2024 1:55pm
So $2.00 US post split right? That is ridiculous!

We all know another financing is coming. Push and pull of competing interests. Irrespective of how good the tech is, history has shown the mismanagement of the capital raises has cost this company and its shareholders dearly. Nothing to indicate this pattern will be different this time. As noted, the tech can live on with or without the shareholders.
