    These $SNAP earnings that are 100 days apart...FFS I mean first off how can you have so little visibility And thanks CNBCq for clickbait hype and panic headlines within 100 days... (NO position) https://twitter.com/...

    So the progression of SNAP rev growth is: Jan 1 - Feb 23 = 44% Feb 24 - Mar 31 = 32% Mar - 31 - Apr 28 = 30% Apr 28 - Jun 30 < 15%

    Snap's down -30% after hours because their CEO just said they'll miss the Q2 estimates they just shared last month. It is also joining the chorus of companies that will be instituting a hiring freeze. Elon Musk's definitely overpaying for Twitter at $44B https://www.cnbc.com/...

    This is the second (or third) time in the past year where Snap has seemed unable to predict the trajectory of their ads business. In Q3 earnings last year the story was Apple privacy changes hit harder than expected. In Q4, earnings it went better than expected. Now this? 🫢 https…

    Snap now down -29%... revising revenue projections after 4 weeks has that August 2000 vibe... Twitter is likely to miss sales estimates by a mile. Oh Elon your timing

    @eric_seufert My guess is that SNAP put more faith in its version of CAPI (send us hashed emails/phone #s so we have a match key) than Meta did/does. Email based matching doesn't scale well & is likely to further wither with Hide My Email, Sign In with Apple, & Google's FedCM.

    $SNAP shares plummet as guidance is reduced. The narrative that Advanced Conversions saves $SNAP from the perils of ATT was suspect to me. Curious if this guidance update has anything to do with fingerprinting potentially being policed starting in Q3. https://www.cnbc.com/...

    @ChaseLarabee market cap still 28b...seems way high to me for a teen ad biz.

    Here's the memo Snap CEO Evan Spiegel sent employees today saying the company would hire just 500 more people this year vs. 2,000 over the past 12 months. The stock is tanking after a SEC filing said revenue growth would slow more than expected. https://www.theverge.com/...

    I'm an idiot, it was Apr 21, so the progression of SNAP rev growth is: Jan 1 - Feb 23 = 44% Feb 24 - Mar 31 = 32% Mar - 31 - Apr 21 = 30% Apr 21 - Jun 30 < 17%
  • @alexeheath Alex Heath on x
    Sounds like more cost cutting hitting Snap soon: “We will also evaluate the remainder of our 2022 budgets and leaders have been asked to review spending to find additional cost savings.” TWTR at $54 a share becomes a more incredible deal (for Twitter) by the day

    Nowhere is safe. Hide your children, etc. https://twitter.com/...
