Recently, there's been some shake-ups at Truth Social, the social media platform started by former President Donald Trump. The company just lost its chief operating officer, Andrew Northwall, who resigned last month. This news came along with another big change - a court ruling that requires the company to hand over nearly 800,000 shares to an investor called ARC Global Investments II.

But why all these changes? Well, Truth Social's parent company, Trump Media & Technology Group Corp., has been facing some tough times financially. Last year alone, they lost almost $58 million while making only $4.1 million. Ouch! It's like trying to fill a leaky bucket with water.

Some experts in the market have called shares of Trump Media a "meme stock." This is when a stock gets a lot of attention online and its value goes up way beyond what it should be, based on traditional market values. The problem is, these stocks can be really unstable, going up and down like a rollercoaster.

And guess what? Just last month, shares for Trump Media & Technology group hit an all-time low. This happened right when Trump could start selling his own shares. But it wasn't always bad news - in mid-July, the stock jumped over 31 percent after someone tried to hurt Trump. And before that, there was a big drop after Trump's debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Truth Social went public back in March and reached a high of $79.38 per share on its debut day. But since then, it's been up and down like crazy. On Friday morning, shares were at $16.20 before the market opened.

So, what does this all mean? Well, it seems like Truth Social is going through some bumpy times. With a top executive leaving and financial struggles, it'll be interesting to see how they navigate these challenges.
