Phunware, which was included with Trump’s 2020 reelection project, saw a 470% rise in cost on Friday.

There is no indicator that DWAC and Phunware have an organization relationship. But Phunware’s increase recently accompanied the spike in the SPAC’s stock.

Short- seller Iceberg Research revealed a bearish position on the DWAC on Monday, stating that financiers deal with unpredictabilities in this blank-check offer as Trump might end up being a dominant investor after the merger.

“Now that initial excitement has passed, we see only risks for investors in near future. Based on Trump’s track record, at current price, renegotiation is likely to keep more of the merged company for him,” Iceberg Research stated in a tweet.

“SPAC holders don’t own a piece of this project yet. Trump has leverage, not them.”

DWAC stayed a popular chat room subject amongst retail traders, who were credited recently with turning the SPAC into the current hot “meme” stock in 2021.

The DWAC ticker was the second-most popular name on Reddit’s WallStreetBets chat room on Monday, after Tesla, the electric-vehicle giant that struck a $1 trillion market capitalization on the exact same day, according to alternative information service provider Quiver Quantitative.

One trending post on WallStreetBets on Monday stated “DWAC- ALL IN,” which brought in more than 500 remarks.

SPACs, likewise called blank-check business, are produced to raise capital in the general public equities markets, with the objective of utilizing the money to buy or combine with personal companies.

Trump’s brand-new social networks business, Trump Media & & Technology Group, on Wednesday stated it and DWAC had actually reached an arrangement to combine so that the previous president’s company will end up being an openly noted business.
