In the last 6 months Netflix is down 71%, Nvidia 23%, Facebook 36%, AMD 25%, Amazon 14%, General Motors 29%, Alphabet 20%, Volkswagen 32%, etc.

Are these all flagging companies as well?

Disingenuous.

Snap is nearly its IPO price. SNAP's last quarter revenue was down from 4 straight quarters of growth.

FB, NVDA, AMD, AMZN, GM, GOOGL, etc. are all up orders of magnitude from IPO.

It's a fair argument to say that the market is being corrected, and that SNAP is not on a trajectory similar to it's peers (FB, TWTR).

I take your point, but Netflix probably yes. Facebook, maybe. VW and GM, probably yes.

I think it's worth noting that their stock is still up 185% since March of 2020. In spite of the prior failures at hardware, the app is still incredibly popular among young people.

Also worth adding that they are only up %6 from the IPO price.

IPO price is just what the most enthusiastic investors hope it's worth.

It's worth more than that, sure, but the correction happened almost immediately after the IPO.

Which is why being so far up from its bottom 2 years ago is important.

That's fair.

Although measuring it from March 20' is somewhat deceptive as the whole marked dipped, that wasn't snap specific.

ARKK, the top performing ETF of 2021, is down 60% over the last year. Tech, in general, has declined substantially, mostly due to interest rates rising.
