š„Market Opened Lower, SNAP -30.31% Down
WALL Streetās main indexes opened lower on Friday (Oct 21) as Snapās forecast of no revenue growth in the lucrative holiday quarter sparked a selloff in social media companies, with galloping US Treasury yields adding to the losses.
A report on Federal Reserve officials to likely debate how to signal plans to approve a smaller increase in December limited the losses.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 42.4 points, or 0.14 per cent, at the open to 30,291.18. The S&P 500 fell 8.7 points, or 0.24 per cent, at the open to 3,657.1ā, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 38.8 points, or 0.37 per cent, to 10,576.037 at the opening bell.
Main Culprit Was SNAP
Snap Inc. SNAP -30.31%ā¼ posted a further slowdown in sales growth and signaled the digital-ad market could remain lackluster for some time, sending its shares sharply lower in late trading.
Snap, in an investor letter Thursday, said it is operating on an assumption of no revenue growth this quarter from the year-ago periodā, even though it has seen about 9% growth so far for the periodā. Analysts surveyed by FactSet have been expecting almost 7% growth for the fourth quarter.
