Those who have already swallowed the high borrowing costs to short Trump Media are getting hosed. But if the stock price keeps going up, there’s no limit to the amount you’d have to pay to replace the borrowed shares. “But…long shareholders have a much different and much more positive view” on Trump Media. Bottom line: Trump Media, trading under the ticker DJT, is a classic meme stock (if “classic” can apply to a three-year-old concept). Whether you’re going short or long, “think of that as you’re making a political statement,” said Laurence White, an economics professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business.
