Snapchat parent Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) is trading near the bottom of the NYSE. Yesterday, a report surfaced that indicated younger users were spending over 32 minutes a day on Instagram, cutting into Snapchat's target audience. As a result, the stock is down 3.4% to trade at $12.21 -- and set for a fifth straight loss -- nearly 28% off its March IPO of $17. Earlier today, SNAP stock touched a record low of $11.90.
