Portfolio Pulse from Benzinga Neuro
Meta's real-time messaging app Threads is experiencing slower growth due to competition with Elon Musk's X. The app debuted strongly in July but has since slid down the ranks of popular social media platforms. It is expected to have 23.7 million U.S. users in 2023, far behind Meta's other platforms, Facebook and Instagram, and ByteDance's TikTok, and Musk's X. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has stated that the company has no immediate plans to monetize Threads until it is more established.
