On Wednesday, shares of DWAC gained 2.60% and closed the trading session at $47.82. Investors were cautious ahead of the Fed announcement but drove stocks up sharply after Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reported a half percentage point raise.

Truth Social CEO Devin Nunes has pledged his support for Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO Elon Musk acquiring Twitter (NYSE: TWTR). Nunes and former President Trump himself support Musk taking on the ‘tech tyrants’. The irony of course is that Tesla is a mega-cap tech company itself but the support likely stems from Trump’s ban from Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: FB) site Facebook, Twitter, and Alphabet’s (NASDAQ: GOOGL) YouTube video streaming site.
