Facebook
(FB.US) reported profit of $2.72 per share for the third quarter, beating the consensus estimate of $1.91 a share. Revenue also came in above analysts' expectations. However, user base in US and Canada dropped from 198 to 196 million and company expects it will remain flat or decrease in the fourth quarter. Facebook also warned of a “significant amount of uncertainty” for the coming year as the accelerated shift to online shopping and the
digital advertising boom during a pandemic could soon be over, and platform changes and new regulations could hamper the social media giant's operations. Investors reacted nervously to these statements and Facebook shares fell during today's session by over 6.5%.![]()
