Better Social Media Stock: Snap or Meta Platforms

Back in late 2018, Snap's (NYSE: SNAP) stock price dropped to an all-time low of $5 a share -- which was far below its IPO price of $17. At the time, it seemed like Facebook, now known as Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: FB), would render Snapchat obsolete with Instagram Stories.

Nevertheless, Snap survived Meta's relentless assault by locking in its core audience of younger users with new AR lenses, games, and short videos.
