Why Snap Stock Soared Today
Investing in this stock is not a "snap." It's actually kind of risky.

Stock of social media star Snap (NYSE: SNAP) ran up 6.1% through 1:11 p.m. ET Friday after analysts at Edgewater Research claimed that other analysts' consensus forecasts for Q2 2025 were "setting a low bar," creating the potential for an earnings beat.
Actually, the potential for a second earnings beat.
