NEGATIVE IMPACT
The trial resumption may influence investor sentiment around Digital World Acquisition Corp. (DWAC), given its association with Trump.
As DWAC is closely linked to Trump through the planned merger with Trump Media & Technology Group, legal developments involving Trump could affect investor confidence and DWAC's stock price.

NEUTRAL IMPACT
The trial's resumption is unlikely to have a significant impact on SPY, an ETF tracking the S&P 500, as it is not directly related to the case.
SPY is a diversified ETF that mirrors the S&P 500 index, which dilutes the effect of single events on individual companies, making the trial's outcome largely irrelevant to SPY's performance.
