Snap Stock Jumped 4.27% on Monday, Guggenheim Securities Analyst Upgraded Snap from ‘Neutral’ to ‘Buy’

American camera and social media company Snap Inc (NYSE: SNAP) has seen tremendous growth since its inception almost a decade ago. As of the time of writing, Tuesday’s premarket, Snap stock was trading around $26.20, 1.79% up from yesterday’s close at $25.74. During Monday’s trading session, Snap stock added 4.27%.

Yesterday’s spike of Snap shares is significantly attributed to Guggenheim upgrading the social media company to buy from neutral. “Over the next 12 months, we expect the valuation scale will be tipped in favor of software, and as such, we view current software multiples as upside targets for our internet coverage,” the firm said in a note.

The firm further indicated its price target, whereby it rose from $22 to $28. The revised target prices represent a premium of 9% to 30% over current valuations.

In addition, Guggenheim upgraded its price target for several internet companies indicating the odds are for their future win.

“We are revising our valuation framework for our digital media coverage universe to better reflect comparability with peer companies in the software industry,” the analyst wrote in the report.

“We believe that there are greater core similarities between internet and software companies than implied in current valuations and expect investors will continue to evolve their view to reflect this, driving incremental appreciation for internet shares.”

Beside the Guggenheim positive upgrade, after 39 credible Wall Street analysts rated the company, Snap stock received an Overall rating on average.

This is an indication the company has fundamentals supporting its future business prospects. Hereby giving investors confidence to invest with the company amid the ongoing market crisis that is restructuring most business models and operations.

Snap stocks are facing fierce competition from companies including Facebook Inc (NASDAQ: FB), TikTok, and also Instagram. With the U.S.-China tech warfare, the company faces future retribution for falling on either side, as observed with TikTok.

Lyft Drops Below IPO Price: Why Stock Could Snap-Crash or Boom Like Facebook

Lyft may not be a social media platform but where its stock price settles, above or below the IPO price, will either draw similarities with Snap Inc or Facebook. On its market debut, investors could have been forgiven for assuming the ride-hailing firm would turn out to be another Facebook (which is currently at $168 against an IPO price of $38) and not Snap (which is currently at $11 against an IPO price of $17) after the stock rallied to $87 from an IPO price of $72.
