Snap

Just like for you, for me $SNAP (-0.15%) always been the app of the same name. In my opinion, however, there is much more hidden and overlooked potential here.

Snap has been developing AR glasses for over 10 years and has invested 3 billion dollars in them. In 2026, Snap will be the first company to bring a pair of glasses to the mass market that are standalone, significantly lighter and smaller than the current Spectacles model, which is only aimed at developers and was released in 2024.

Even here, the possibilities are already impressive, see from minute 07:39 https://youtu.be/HF_PgiM2btw?si=85ugnLHYOFjlRtk_

Snap is the first mover here and the glasses themselves are already doing well in various reviews; according to the management, the new ones will be even better.

Snap is nevertheless unprofitable with its current business, as a lot of money is naturally invested in development. Furthermore, Snap is currently only growing by around 10% a year.

Nevertheless, with a solid balance sheet, a P/E ratio of 2, an EBITDA ratio of 23 and a price-to-free cash flow ratio of 23 for 2026, Snap is not really expensive.

How do you see it? Is the market overlooking the potential of the glasses?

I used to use Snapchat 10 years ago because you could make videos with filters and a helium voice. I have the feeling it's mainly children who use it. Whether they all buy glasses now is questionable for me. For me, the figures have looked red for too long. It's hard for me to say whether this will turn around. I would rather get in when the bottom has been reached and things are looking up. Before that, I see it as a ride into the abyss.

AEX opens positive amid global stock market turmoil

The AEX index starts the day with an indication of +0.3%, while international markets also turn green. Wall Street largely managed to recover from Friday's sell-off, and Asian stock markets follow with Korea and Taiwan as outliers. U.S. 10-year interest rates rise slightly to 4.21%, while German rates fall to 2.62%. The euro/dollar exchange rate is quoted at 1.1550. The Damrak is relatively quiet, with only B&S presenting figures. Internationally, however, there is plenty of activity: Palantir surprises with strong quarterly results, while Hims & Hers falls sharply. Figma debuts with a 27.4% drop. The US puts pressure on India and China because of Russian oil imports, further raising trade tensions. Investors look forward to figures from AMD, Snap, Rivian and Super Micro Computer. Also on the agenda are the purchasing managers' indices of the service sectors in Germany and the US. In short: plenty of excitement and thrills on the trading floor.

Social networks / AI drivers

Hi guys, I am currently looking for a great company that is still at the beginning of its success story. I am specifically looking for a company that is active in the social network sector and is active in various business areas.

Do you have any suggestions or favorite stocks in this sector?

What do you think of $SNAP (-0.15%) ?

I'm thinking of $PINS (still a lot of potential in my opinion, especially in terms of e-commerce) or RDDT (relatively new on the stock market but basically an established player). Snapchat's high number of active users and its expertise in AR speak in its favor, but its boom years are already over, so it doesn't quite fit your description.
