**Implied Volatility / Movement:** DJT fell 7.83% in the session.

Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ:DJT) shares are under pressure, declining 7.83% as regulatory scrutiny intensifies around its recently launched "Truth API." The API, which provides Wall Street firms with access to Truth Social posts, has prompted bipartisan calls for an SEC investigation into potential insider trading and market manipulation concerns. Senators have also proposed legislation aimed at targeting such data access structures.

The selloff in DJT appears company-specific, with the broader market showing stability. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA:$SPY+WL) saw a modest gain of 0.08% during the session. Peers like Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) gained 1.70%, while Rumble (NASDAQ:RUM) remained near flat, underscoring the isolated nature of Trump Media's decline.
