NewsMax stock went up 700% on its IPO today. Wild. But I do think this is a reflection of lots of optimism for “conservative,” ie not batshit crazy left wing, media companies. Fox is also near an all time high stock price too.

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Leads with a specific number, which is concrete enough to be worth a second of attention.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Leads with a number
Structure: Hook → Turn
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal
Written for: Founders and operators
