Rumble Stock Soars: Ai Deal & Crypto Partnership Ignite Bull Rally

Rumble (RUM) Stock Surges: Crypto Stablecoin, AI Partnerships & Legal Drama Fuel Rally

  • Stock rally: Rumble (NASDAQ: RUM) jumped sharply in late Sept/early Oct 2025. On Oct. 2–3, 2025 the stock spiked ~12–13% (from about $7.39 on Oct 2 to ~$8.30 on Oct 3) on heavy volume (≈18 million shares traded vs. a normal ~3–4 million) [1]. This surge followed news of major partnerships (see below). Year-to-date 2025 RUM is down roughly 40–42%, trading around $7–8 (about 55% below its Dec 2024 52-week high of $16.27) [2].
  • Tether stablecoin launch: Crypto firm Tether – now Rumble’s largest investor – announced plans to launch its US-regulated stablecoin (USAT) on Rumble’s video platform [3]. (Tether paid $775 million in 2024 for a 48% stake in Rumble [4].) Rumble will integrate a crypto wallet supporting USAT by year-end [5]. This deal effectively gives Rumble exclusive U.S. distribution of a dollar-backed digital coin, creating a potential new revenue stream [6].
  • AI partnership (Perplexity): Rumble announced on Oct. 2 a strategic alliance with AI search engine Perplexity. The deal will embed Perplexity’s AI-powered tools into Rumble (improving content discovery) and bundle Perplexity Pro subscriptions with Rumble Premium [7] [8]. CEO Chris Pavlovski touted the move, saying Rumble is “thrilled to partner with Perplexity as we dive deeper into the AI space” [9]. This tie-up fueled heavy interest in RUM stock, which jumped over 13% on the news [10].
  • Q2 2025 earnings: Rumble reported Aug. 11, 2025 Q2 results: revenue $25.1 million (up 12% YoY) and stable ~51 million monthly active users [11]. The company is pursuing an all-stock acquisition of Northern Data (an AI/HPC infrastructure provider) – a deal backed by Tether, ND’s majority owner [12]. Rumble is also developing a “Rumble Wallet” (for tipping in Bitcoin and Tether USDT) via partners MoonPay and others; Tether will advertise and promote the Wallet on Rumble [13].
  • Legal & regulatory issues: Rumble has been embroiled in high-profile cases. In Brazil, the Supreme Court (Justice Alexandre de Moraes) ordered Rumble’s suspension (Feb 2025) over its refusal to block content of an accused misinformation promoter [14]. Rumble (and allied Trump Media & Tech) labeled this “extraterritorial censorship,” since it disrupted both Rumble and Trump’s Truth Social (which relies on Rumble’s video services) [15] [16]. In the U.S., courts have been unkind to Rumble’s lawsuits: a Texas judge dismissed Rumble’s ad-boycott antitrust suit against Diageo/WPP (Aug 2025) on jurisdiction grounds [17], and a California judge threw out Rumble’s YouTube-search antitrust suit (May 2025) as time-barred [18]. (Rumble still has a separate antitrust case pending against Google’s ad practices [19].)
  • Analyst sentiment: Wall Street is cautiously optimistic. RUM carries a Moderate Buy consensus (as of Oct 2025) [20] [21]. Analysts’ 12-month price targets average about $14–$14.50 – roughly double the ~$7–8 current price [22] [23]. For example, TipRanks notes “moderate buy” ratings and a $14.50 average target [24], and MarketBeat similarly shows 1 buy/1 hold, consensus target ~$14 [25].
  • Company & industry context: Rumble (founded 2013) is a video-sharing and cloud services platform that brands itself as a “free speech” YouTube alternative. It has about 50–60 million users (globally) [26]. Its last twelve-month revenue is under $100 million (≈$95.5M) [27], and it remains unprofitable (trailing net loss ~$338M) [28]. The stock trades at about 1.5–2× sales (given a ~$2.4 billion market cap) but with negative earnings, reflecting growth aspirations and niche positioning. Compared to big peers (e.g. Google/YouTube), Rumble is tiny but has gained attention as an ideological alternative; analysts note its volatility – the stock had dozens of >5% daily swings in the past year [29].

  • Allianz Stock Price Prediction: Could ALV Hit €402 by 2027?
    October 24, 2025, 11:12 AM EDT. Allianz SE is pursuing a diversified financial-services strategy across property-casualty, asset management, and life insurance. Our model suggests ALV could reach €402 per share by December 2027, implying a total return of about 15% from today's price near €351 and an annualized return around 7% over ~2.2 years. The thesis rests on continued pricing momentum in P&C, strong asset-management platforms (PIMCO, Allianz Global Investors), and disciplined capital management, including dividends and buybacks. The company has posted ~11.2% revenue growth in the past year with steady operating margins around 9%, underscoring execution across geographic diversification and digital transformation under CEO Oliver Bäte. Allianz leverages risk solutions, digital engagement, and capital strength to navigate a challenging rate environment.
