Daily Stock Analysis– Spotify – how can it grow after posting losses? Incredibly Spotify does.
Spotify has beat back the Goliaths of the music and podcast world. When you think of streaming music and podcast, investors may think that Amazon, Apple, and Google dominate everything. That is wrong! Spotify is not as diversified as Amazon, Apple, or Google, but it is growing in the land of giants. The company is focusing only on customer streaming. That emphasis has allowed Spotify to have consistent growth of users, attract more artists, increase subscriptions and increase ad revenue. But here's a puzzler. The stock keeps going up, and the company posts a net loss year after year. Spotify is not profitable. Or is it? That is what I am talking about today on the Daily Stock Analysis.
