Trump meme coin drops 96% from peak
President Donald Trump’s Solana-based Official Trump (TRUMP) meme coin slid to around $2.90 on Tuesday after touching $2.87 overnight, marking its lowest level since shortly after the token launched in January 2025.
The token has fallen more than 15% over the past week and now trades more than 96% below its $73.43 all-time high reached just before Trump began his second term, even as major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum recovered.
The decline coincides with weakening sentiment toward the US president, with prediction markets shifting to 58% odds of public disapproval and traditional polling averages compiled by data analyst Nate Silver showing about 54.8% disapproval.
Trump said Monday the conflict in Iran was “very complete, pretty much,” briefly easing market volatility before warning that “death, fire, and fury will reign” if Iran halts oil flows.
While Bitcoin rose roughly 1.5% in the past 24 hours to about $70,137 and Ethereum traded near $2,041, Trump’s meme coin remained under pressure amid the broader crypto market rebound.

A Bank of America roadshow indicates that Hong Kong investors have become noticeably bearish on storage stocks, with some having already reduced their holdings early. Meanwhile, after visiting Shanghai, analyst Jukan straightforwardly stated he has "lost the conviction to hold"—local veteran investors pointed out that even if the P/E ratio of storage stocks is only 3, should prices fall below the LTA in 2028 and trigger a default, the actual valuation would soar to 7.8 to 10 times, which is not cheap.

As $2.5 trillion was wiped out from tech stocks in a single day, the IPO plans of AI star Anthropic are on shaky ground. Three major investors have explicitly questioned the $1.5 trillion target valuation, with some parties believing its actual value is closer to $1 trillion. Doubts have also emerged over whether the November roadshow will proceed as planned. Ongoing losses, missing key revenue data, and sudden shifts in AI policy—all add up to multiple headwinds, causing this listing, once poised to set the record for the largest IPO in history, to now face three tough choices: a discounted valuation, a reduced offering, or outright postponement.
