Rumble Inc. (RUM), the video-sharing platform popular among conservative users, saw its stock soar 5.09% in intraday trading on Tuesday. This significant uptick comes as the conservative media landscape experiences a notable boost, exemplified by the recent success of Newsmax's initial public offering (IPO).
The surge in Rumble's stock price appears to be closely tied to the broader trend of investor enthusiasm for conservative media outlets. Newsmax, a conservative cable news channel, has seen its shares skyrocket over 60% following its stellar debut on the New York Stock Exchange. This remarkable performance has likely sparked renewed interest in other conservative-leaning media platforms, including Rumble.
Analysts suggest that the current political climate is creating a favorable environment for conservative media companies. Peter Andersen, founder of Andersen Capital Management, noted, "It's probably a perfect time for [conservative media] to launch, simply because of all the volatility in the political arena currently." This sentiment seems to be extending to Rumble, as investors anticipate potential growth in the platform's user base and revenue in the lead-up to the upcoming election cycle.
