~ Trading Commences Following Successful
Closing of Business Combination with CFVI ~
LONGBOAT
KEY, Fla., Sept. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Rumble Inc.
(NASDAQ:RUM) ("Rumble"), the video-sharing platform, announced that
after successfully completing its business combination with blank
check company CF Acquisition Corp. VI (NASDAQ: CFVI) ("CFVI"),
trading of Rumble's common shares will begin on the NASDAQ stock
exchange today. At market open, the ticker symbol will switch from
"CFVI" to "RUM" for the company's common shares.
While stock ticker symbols can be an afterthought, for Rumble,
"RUM" holds a special connection to the company's mission to
protect a free and open internet. It's a little-known fact that rum
was one of the many catalysts of the American Revolution due to
unrest created by the British-imposed Sugar Act of 1764. The Act
imposed regulations and taxes on molasses, a key ingredient used to
produce rum. During the colonial era, rum was among the
most-consumed alcoholic drinks in America. Without rum, the
colonists may never have fought to win the freedom that Americans
enjoy today – the very freedom that Rumble exists to protect.
"As a mission-driven company, we do everything with a purpose,"
said Rumble Chairman and CEO Chris
Pavlovski. "As we considered available tickers, the history
of rum as a symbol of freedom was the perfect match for
Rumble."
