📌 How Pinterest Compares to Other Social Networks Pre-IPO
#Pinterest announced the price range for its long-awaited initial public offering (#IPO) on Monday morning. The social media company, slated for a public trading debut next week, plans to sell 75,000,000 shares at a price of $15 to $17. At this price range, Pinterest would be valued between $10 and $11.3 billion, surprisingly lower than the $12.3 billion valuation it had when it last raised capital as a private company in 2017. It would also be less than half the valuation that Snap (#Snapchat's parent company) was given in its much-hyped IPO in 2017, despite the fact that Pinterest has more users and is closer to profitability than Snap was ahead of its public trading debut in March 2017.
As the following chart illustrates, Pinterest generated $756 million in revenue last year, posting a net loss of $63 million. In the year leading up to Snap’s $24 billion IPO, its revenue and net loss amounted to $405 and -$515, respectively. Snap had 158 million daily active users by the time it went public, while Pinterest had 265 million monthly active users at the end of 2018. Pinterest also compares favorably to #Twitter, which went public in November 2013 at a $14 billion valuation with less to show for than Pinterest has now.

🤫 The Rise of Dark Social
There’s no shortage of discussion around the decline of sharing on #SocialMedia. But it’s not that users are sharing less, they’re sharing differently.
Social media feeds have become overcrowded with content, and consumers are privacy-aware more than ever.
Both these factors are contributing to the rise of a not-so-new space: #DarkSocial. Dark Social means private messaging apps, SMS or emails.
Based on a research by GlobalWebIndex, in UK and US, when consumers have something to share, they’re more likely to head to dark social channels to do so (63%) rather than open social media platforms (54%). What’s even more revealing is that around 20% share only via these channels, with #WhatsApp and #FacebookMessenger the go-to services.

📱 The Old Tech Giants Do NOT Control the Next Generation
According to VertoAnalytics, among teens, #Snapchat is the top social service, and #Facebook is number five (among adults, these stats are almost the opposite).
Mobile apps and all-inclusive services/platforms have a significant impact on everyone: An equal number of monthly users watch videos on the Facebook App and on the YouTube app (however, only 21% of total Facebook mobile app time is about video usage versus 84% for #YouTube).

📱 the Evolution of Video
As the definition of #TV becomes increasingly fluid, #mobile has opened additional opportunities to provide viewers with high-quality content—where they want it, when they want it and how they want it. As of August 2018, mobile phones have become the dominant device for watching online video, surpassing computers and other internet-connected devices.
2019 is shaping up to be an inflection point for video. It is forecasted that mobile will surpass traditional TV entirely as the medium attracting the most entertainment minutes in the US.

🏦 Challenger Banks in the UK
Banking is an unbearably dry topic, except in the UK, where the traditional incumbents are stuck in a pitched battle for survival with a swathe of new app-only “challenger banks.” Without a doubt, the most famous of these is #Monzo. Data from Apptopia paints a rosy picture of the company’s growth, with monthly downloads of the company’s flagship app growing 211% in 12 months and 347% since January 2018.
