Here's Why Snap Is Moving
Portfolio Pulse from Henry Khederian
Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) shares are trading lower by 3.5% after HSBC initiated coverage on the stock with a Reduce rating and a $7.50 price target. The overall market weakness and concerns about future rate hikes following last Wednesday's FOMC statement and lower-than-expected initial jobless claims data are also contributing to the fall. The Federal Reserve maintained the federal funds rate within the 5.25% to 5.5% range at its September meeting.
