If You'd Invested $1,000 in Snap In 2017, This Is How Much You Would Have Today

Snap (NYSE: SNAP), the parent company of Snapchat, took investors on a wild ride after it went public at $17 per share on March 2, 2017. The stock opened at $24, but tumbled over the following two years and sank below $5 a share in December 2018. But the bulls eventually rushed back, and Snap's stock closed at an all-time high of $83.11 last September.
