<h2 class="wp-block-heading">DJT Stock Chart: Bulls &amp; Bears Playing Tug-O-War</h2>
DJT's technical indicators paint a mixed picture. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112224&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22103058/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-9.00.42-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-661165" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22103058/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-9.00.42-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22103058/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-9.00.42-PM-300x234.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112224&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
DJT stock, at $30.77, sits above its eight-day simple moving average (SMA) of $29.75, offering a short-term bullish signal. 
Yet, its 20-day SMA of $33.53 looms as a resistance point, giving a bearish signal. The 50-day SMA at $26.60 reinforces a bullish undertone for the intermediate term, but the 200-day SMA at $34.45 suggests broader bearish pressure.
Momentum indicators add complexity: the moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) indicator sits at 0.18, a bullish signal, while the relative strength index (RSI) at 50.16 hovers in neutral territory. 
DJT stock traders are likely watching closely for any confirmation of a breakout or breakdown from these levels.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">TruthFi: Crypto Catalyst Or Diversification Dilemma?</h2>
Trump Media's trademark application for TruthFi hints at ambitions to leverage the crypto wave. If launched, TruthFi could extend beyond payment processing to include trading and asset management, positioning DJT as more than a social media play. The nascent nature of these plans — compounded by broader market skepticism — leaves the timeline and impact uncertain.
Trump Media is also reportedly interested in buying Bakkt. Shares of the crypto custody startup skyrocketed 160% on the rumors, but no concrete deal has materialized.
President-elect Donald Trump's signaling of crypto-friendly regulation will likely benefit DJT stock as well. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next For DJT Stock?</h2>
While bulls may see Trump Media's entry into crypto as the next growth catalyst, bears argue the stock's technical resistance and uncertain fundamentals warrant caution. 
For now, traders find themselves at an inflection point, waiting to see whether TruthFi's promise can materialize into profits — and whether DJT can move the needle in either direction.

Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) stock fell 1.7% to $162.87 this week, as investors assessed the ripple effects of NVIDIA's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42101875/nvidia-beats-q3-revenue-eps-estimates-supply-constraints-ding-stock-huang-says-age-of-ai-is-in-full">third-quarter earnings report</a> on the broader semiconductor sector.
Nvidia, a key player in AI and data center markets where Broadcom also operates, posted strong results but provided a cautious fourth quarter outlook. The mixed market reaction to Nvidia&#8217;s report appeared to keep Broadcom shares in a holding pattern, reflecting broader uncertainties about growth prospects in the chip industry.
What To Know: Nvidia's robust performance underscored the ongoing demand for AI-related infrastructure, including advanced GPUs and complementary hardware, areas where Broadcom's networking and connectivity solutions play a critical role. 
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42119226/nvidia-analysts-see-stock-best-positioned-in-ai-not-worried-about-guidance-all-systems-go-for-blackwell-ramp">Analysts highlighted</a> Nvidia's next-generation Blackwell architecture as a significant driver of demand through 2025. However, Nvidia's guidance falling short of lofty expectations caused some profit-taking, illustrating the market&#8217;s sensitivity to growth narratives in the AI space.

Broadcom, a major supplier of chips for data centers and AI workloads, is often viewed as a complementary player to Nvidia, benefiting from the surge in demand for high-performance computing infrastructure. 
Investors have also been closely watching Broadcom's strategic moves in recent memory, particularly its ongoing diversification efforts, including its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/07/39692197/broadcom-issues-5b-in-debt-to-fund-vmware-acquisition">$61 billion acquisition</a> of VMware. 
This deal could further strengthen Broadcom's position in software-defined infrastructure, enhancing its ability to serve hyperscale data centers.
While Nvidia&#8217;s earnings highlighted sector strength, it also raised questions about near-term growth pacing. For Broadcom, the focus remains on its ability to capture a share of this evolving demand while leveraging its diverse portfolio.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy AVGO Stock?</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Broadcom &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, AVGO has a 52-week high of $186.42 and a 52-week low of $90.31.

Andrew Hones, CEO and founder of New Market Capital, unveiled &#8220;Battery Finance&#8221; on CNBC on Friday—an asset management platform combining <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/24/11/42069387/grant-cardone-calls-himself-a-coward-investor-puts-his-money-in-real-assets">traditional assets like real estate</a> with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What Happened: In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26bOawTzT5U">appearance</a> on Squawk Box, Hones announced a loan that blends a 63-unit multi-family property in Philadelphia with Bitcoin as collateral. 
A $2 million loan was issued to refinance the existing mortgage on the property, fund improvements and allocate funds for purchasing Bitcoin. 
The loan combines traditional real estate collateral with Bitcoin, diversifying risk.
Borrowers must hold Bitcoin in escrow for at least four years, ensuring stability. 
The crypto king adds a hedge against inflation and enhances asset protection compared to traditional loans reliant solely on property.
Borrowers can repay loans anytime without penalty, but Bitcoin collateral remains locked for four years. 
Hones noted that this hybrid approach pairs stable, cash-flowing assets with Bitcoin&#8217;s growth potential, creating a hedge against volatility.

Why It Matters: Hones believes Bitcoin can complement fixed-income portfolios and address pension fund shortfalls. 
Over the medium to long term, Bitcoin's performance offers the potential for significant returns—its worst historical return over any four-year period stands at 23%.
This approach aims to reduce reliance on high-risk credit investments while narrowing asset-liability mismatches in pension portfolios. 
By integrating Bitcoin with traditional credit structures, Hones envisions a transformative investment strategy capable of reducing pension funding gaps and enhancing overall portfolio stability.

Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) shares are moving lower on Friday following a report suggesting that shareholder Advance Magazine Publishers, Inc. plans to establish a credit facility using its stake in the company. Here&#8217;s what you <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42132644/reddit-falls-7-in-afterhours-as-advance-plans-stake-sale-technicals-show-strong-support-but-selling-pressure-persists-at-overbought-levels">need to know</a>.
What To Know: According to <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/reddit-share-sale-plan-sparks-125245363.html">Yahoo Finance</a>, the publishing company aims to make as much $1.2 billion in a sale of 7.8 million shares for between $145.38 to $148.54 per share.
Even though the company plans to sell shares, Advance is not exiting its investment in Reddit. Instead, the company is borrowing against the value of its Reddit shares. To maintain its ownership stake, Advance is purchasing derivatives linked to its Reddit shares.
How To Buy Reddit Stock
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Reddit's case, it is in the Communication Services sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
