A filing from Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>) registers millions of shares for sale as a primary offering and millions of shares that can be sold in a secondary offering,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/09/40943414/donald-trump-can-cash-out-his-trump-media-technology-stock-keep-company-control-heres-how-ma"> including those belonging to</a> President Donald Trump.
What Happened: Trump Media &amp; Technology stock has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41760961/djt-stock-volatile-on-election-day-donald-trumps-media-company-reports-q3-earnings-growth-initiativ"> been highly volatile</a> since the 2024 presidential election, which co-founder Donald Trump won.
Shares may continue to be volatile in 2025, with a new offering announced this week via a company filing.
The S-3 registration <a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/sec.irpass.cc/2660/0001140361-25-011700.pdf">statement </a>registers a primary offering of up to 8,370,686 shares.
A secondary offering registers up to 134,078,598 shares for sale from time to time. Included in this total are 114,750,000 shares of common shares held by the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust.
"The selling security holders may offer and sell, from time to time, any or all of the shares of common stock or warrants being offered for resale by this prospectus," the filing reads.
The secondary offering shares registered include the following:
<ul>
<li>30,147 placement shares</li>
<li>627,521 shares previously registered for resale</li>
<li>79,538 remaining unsold or unexercised shares issuable upon the exercise of placement warrants</li>

Why It's Important: The share registration does not mean that all shareholders listed will sell their stock. The filing registers shares that can now be sold in the future.
Trump has promised not to sell his stake in the media company he co-founded.
"No, I'm not selling. No, I love it," Trump said back in September <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/09/40860859/trump-media-technology-shares-surge-former-president-says-hes-not-selling-or-leaving-truth-s">during a campaign speech.</a>
The president said he uses Truth Social, owned by the media company he co-founded, to spread his message.
Trump also said he would not leave Truth Social for X in the same speech.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not leaving. I love it,&#8221; he reiterated.
In the speech, Trump highlighted how his stake was worth billions of dollars, but he wouldn't be selling.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not going to sell my shares. I don&#8217;t need money.&#8221;
Today, the DJT shares are worth $2.18 billion.
In November, Trump again confirmed he was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41853221/trump-says-he-wont-sell-trump-media-stock">not planning on selling</a> his DJT shares and said that rumors and reports that he was were fake. 
Trump Media &amp; Technology highlighted its growth plans in the share filing, which include the recent rollout of Truth Social streaming apps <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44398390/trump-media-launches-truth-on-roku-calling-it-the-singular-option-for-non-woke-tv">for home TV </a>and the launch of Truth.Fi financial services.
The company's main growth plans going forward are:
<ul>
<li>Grow Truth Social</li>
<li>Increase Product Offerings and Services</li>
<li>Pursue Strategic Acquisitions and/or Partnerships</li>
</ul>
DJT Price Action: Trump Media &amp; Technology stock is down 6.1% to $19.03 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $11.75 to $56.55. The stock is down 44.1% year-to-date in 2025 and down 63.1% over the last year.

The fintech lender's revenue from its main business jumped in last year's fourth quarter as China rolled out a series of measures to stimulate its economy
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaways:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Jiayin's revenue from its main loan facilitation services rose 46% in last year's fourth quarter as it predicted more strong growth for that business this year</li>
<li>The company's business boomed as Chinese policymakers sought to boost the country's economy through a new series of private consumption stimulus measures</li>
</ul>
Beijing's efforts to revive the Chinese economy are breathing new life into a previously embattled group of private small lenders that focus on providing financing for average Joes.
That group of beneficiaries includes&nbsp;Jiayin Group Inc.&nbsp;(JFIN.US), which operates an online platform for consumer loans. The company's revenue from its main loan facilitation services jumped 46% year-on-year in the fourth quarter of last year to 1.1 billion yuan ($154 million), according to its&nbsp;<a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/03/27/3050346/0/en/Jiayin-Group-Inc-Reports-Fourth-Quarter-and-Fiscal-Year-2024-Unaudited-Financial-Results.html">latest results</a>&nbsp;released last Thursday. It also predicted continued strong growth for its core business this year, forecasting its loan facilitation volume would grow about 40% from 2024 levels.
Jiayin's business boomed as the Chinese government kept busy toward the end of last year rolling out a steady stream of measures to stimulate the world's second-largest economy, which has slowed notably after years of rapid growth. A key focus for policymakers lately has been boosting domestic consumption to reduce China's heavy reliance on exports and foreign investment, which have become less dependable these days amid growing global protectionism and shrinking foreign direct investment (FDI).
One key program to boost consumer spending offers rebates to consumers when they trade in their old home appliances and smartphones for new ones. Government workers also received surprise wage increases in January, and just last month the government unveiled a grand program dubbed a "Special Action Plan to Boost Consumption."
"In 2024, China's macroeconomic demonstrated steady growth with consumer credit demand rising steadily, supported by consumer stimulus policies," Jiayin CEO Yan Dinggui said on the company's earnings conference call.
Yan's mention of the word "consumer" twice in such a short remark underscores the importance of Beijing's consumption-oriented policies for Jiayin. Essentially, as the government tries to increase consumers' disposable income, they will feel more comfortable about spending and more confident about borrowing through companies like Jiayin to finance their purchases.
Headlines on all the economic stimulus measures have lifted shares of Jiayin and its peers with similar business focuses. Jiayin's stock has more than doubled in the past year, while U.S.-listed shares of&nbsp;Qifu Technology&nbsp;(QFIN.US; 3660.HK) have surged more than 140%.&nbsp;FinVolution&nbsp;(FINV.US) is also up about 90%.
Despite the big jump in loan facilitation revenue, Jiayin's overall revenue actually fell in last year's fourth quarter. But that's a result of what may be a good shift in the company's business strategy to reduce its exposure to loan default risks. In the final three months of 2023, Jiayin booked revenue of 669 million yuan from a reversal of loan guarantees, which amounted to more than 40% of its total revenue for the period.
Here's what this means. The company sets aside a certain amount of money to cover potential defaults on loans it distributes under arrangements with banks and other financial institutions that provide actual money for those loans. When the amount of actual defaults is smaller than the amount of provisions, Jiayin records the difference as revenue.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Overly conservative</h4>
The fact that the revenue gain from reversed loan guarantees was so large in the fourth quarter of 2023 means that the underlying financial health of Jiayin's borrowers turned out to be much better than it had anticipated during that period. The company was probably overly conservative, but that's hardly a bad thing in the current climate of economic uncertainty.
In the fourth quarter of last year, such revenue gains from reversed loan guarantees dropped about 77% to 157 million yuan to account for just 11% of Jiayin's total revenue. This appears to owe to a strategic shift to scaling down the company's loan guarantees, which CFO Fan Chunlin said on the earnings call was a "deliberate" move.
In other words, Jiayin is looking to dole out more loans without shouldering the liability for potential defaults, lowering key risks. More importantly, the fact that a growing number of the company's lending partners are willing to use Jiayin's services without the company also offering protection against defaults suggests that they trust its risk management capabilities, which in large part draw on advanced technology including AI. And Jiayin's loan delinquency rate is pretty low, which should give its lending partners plenty of reassurance.
Jiayin's net profit fell 19% in last year's fourth quarter to 1.06 billion yuan from 1.3 billion yuan a year earlier. But the drop was partly because of a one-off loss related to its disposal of a subsidiary. If it can continue to ride Beijing's efforts to boost consumption, its bottom line should return to expansion, barring any future unexpected one-time costs.
Jiayin's leadership is confident about its earnings prospects. It forecast its loan facilitation volume would reach between 137 billion yuan and 142 billion yuan this year, up sharply from 100 billion yuan in 2024. On the same day the company released its latest earnings, its board also put on another show of confidence by approving the company's payment of as much as 30% of its net profit as dividends from this year.
Jiayin shares currently trade at a price to earnings (P/E) ratio of about 5, more or less in line with the multiples for China's four biggest banks, which just received a huge boost from the Chinese government's plan to provide them with fresh capital. But it lags the 7.8 P/E ratio for Qifu and the similar 7.7 for FinVolution, which are both expected to post relatively modest revenue growth this year in the 5% to 15% range.
The big state-owned banks cater to big businesses, most of them also state-owned, which creates a niche for companies like Jiayin to pursue consumer and small business borrowers that Beijing is now targeting with its stimulus measures. If the consumer story in China gains more traction, Jiayin's valuation could continue to march higher — unless the stimulus measures run out of steam or simply fail to get people spending.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42850946/planning-your-retirement-new-changes-to-social-security-in-2025-could-affect-you">Retirement planning</a> isn't just about reaching a certain savings milestone – it's about ensuring you can maintain the lifestyle you want. For Peter and his wife, both 44 and child-free, that means continuing to enjoy their boat, vacations, and active lifestyle after retiring at 62. But are their current finances enough to keep it going?&nbsp;
Suze Orman weighed in on their situation, and she gave Peter a surprising wake-up call.&nbsp;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Strong Financial Foundation – But Is It Enough?&nbsp;</h2>
Peter and his wife are in a solid financial position. Their total net worth is about $912,000. Let's break down their finances.&nbsp;
Financial Assets:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Retirement Savings: $668,686</li>
<li>Emergency Fund: $78,478</li>
<li>Home Value: $425,000</li>
</ul>
Debts:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Consumer Debt: $10,000</li>
<li>Mortgage Debt: $250,000</li>
</ul>
Their monthly take home pay is $11,874, and their monthly expenses total $8,702, leaving them with a surplus of $2,172 to save and invest.&nbsp;
By many standards, this might seem like a strong position. In fact, Peter gave himself a &#8220;B&#8221; when asked how he'd grade their financial readiness for retirement. However, Orman had a much harsher evaluation.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Suze Orman's Surprising Verdict: An &#8220;F&#8221;</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44459879/suze-orman-warns-the-absolute-worst-thing-that-you-can-be-doing-right-now-is-panic-because-it-hu">Orman</a> shocked Peter by giving him a failing grade. Why? The main issue is that Peter and his wife want to continue with their current lifestyle throughout their retirement – but Orman said they're projected savings aren't enough to generate the income they'll need to support it.&nbsp;
Their monthly expenses sit at about $10,000. Orman outlines that even with their mortgage paid off by the time they retire, Peter and his wife will have other expenses that come up, like health insurance and long-term care. She anticipates this will keep their expenses around $10,000 if they want to maintain their current lifestyle.&nbsp;
Based on conservative investment growth estimates, their after-tax retirement income at 62 would be around $7,320 per month—falling short by approximately $2,700 per month.
That gap is significant, and without adjustments, it could force them to downsize their lifestyle in retirement.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Path to an &#8220;A&#8221;</h2>
While Peter's current plan falls short, Orman outlined a clear path to financial security:
<ul>
<li>Delay Retirement to 67 – Working five more years allows their investments to grow, reducing the shortfall.</li>
<li>Get Long-Term Care Insurance – This would protect them from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44178175/elon-musk-wants-to-know-why-healthcare-costs-so-much-mark-cuban-gives-him-7-brutal-reasons-why-ceos-like-him-are-making-it-worse">high healthcare costs</a> later in life.</li>
<li>Invest Mortgage Savings – Once their mortgage is paid off, they should invest the freed-up cash to generate more retirement income.</li>
<li>Optimize Social Security Benefits – Orman recommends a strategic claiming strategy where Peter's wife, MaryJo, first claims half of his Social Security benefit at age 67, then switches to her full benefit at 70. Peter would start claiming his full benefit at 67. This approach would maximize their total Social Security income.</li>
</ul>
By following this plan, Orman projects their after-tax income at 67 would be $13,262 per month—comfortably exceeding their $10,000 expense target. At 70, their monthly income could grow to $14,900, ensuring they have more than enough to maintain their active lifestyle.

ASGN's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASGN#NYSE">ASGN</a>) short percent of float has risen 7.3% since its last report.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for ASGN has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing ASGN's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, ASGN's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.37%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
