That put the Footsie into a bear market – down over 20% since January. The day began with heavy losses in Asia-Pacific; Australia fell over 7%, while the Nikkei fell over 5%. On its earnings call, Twitter pointed the finger at NASDAQ, which it says manages its investor relations website, and was instructed not to publish any data prior to today’s market close. Just last weekNASDAQ agreed to pay $26.5 million to settle a class-action lawsuit over the way it bungled Facebook’s IPO. A stagnant user base and lower revenues have limited the growth of Twitter. TWTR stock closed at $19.85 on Friday, which is way below its 52-week high of $31.87.

By Thursday, both Facebook and Twitter had frozen Trump’s accounts—finally taking the dramatic step they had avoided throughout his presidency. Last week, Twitter made the unprecedented decision to permanently suspend Trump’s personal account, saying he had broken the site’s rules by inciting violence. Facebook did the same, indefinitely, and Instagram banned Trump for at least the duration of his term. Amazon made similar moves by kicking Parler, an alternative social media platform favored by right-wing groups, off its servers, causing the site to go dark. Reddit, Snapchat, Twitch, and many other platforms made similar moves to limit or ban Trump’s content. Now, with less than two months left in his presidency and both his personal and political social media accounts as active as ever, it is worth considering what will happen when his term ends.
