The news of Trump's appeal could potentially affect DWAC, the SPAC that is merging with Trump's social media venture, Truth Social.

NEUTRAL IMPACT
The news may have a minor impact on SPY, a broad market ETF, due to its exposure to the overall market sentiment.
While SPY is a broad market ETF and not directly linked to Trump or DWAC, shifts in overall market sentiment due to high-profile legal cases can potentially affect its performance. However, the impact is likely to be minor given SPY's diversified nature.
