Good Stocks To Buy Right Now? 4 Advertising Stocks To Watch


4 Top Advertising Stocks To Watch Before July 2021

Advertising stocks have been making waves in the

stock market

lately. This comes after the news that Alphabet Inc’s (

NASDAQ: GOOGL

) subsidiary Google is pushing back its timeline to deprecate third-party tracking cookies until 2023. This gives digital advertisers more time to iron out plans for more privacy-conscious targeted ads. Cookies are small pieces of code that websites deliver to a visitor’s browser and stick around as the person visits other sites. So what this means is they could track users across multiple sites to target ads.

Now that Google is updating its timeline, advertising technology companies are given a huge boost. After all, every marketer is starting to view technology as an important factor when it comes to development and growth. We have social media companies such as Snap Inc (

NYSE: SNAP

) and Pinterest Inc (

NYSE: PINS

) which utilize augmented reality (AR) to advertise products online. You could now try on makeup through AR before you buy it. With all these in mind, here is a list of four

top advertising stocks

in the stock market today that could benefit from Google’s recent announcement.

Trade Desk Inc

The first advertising company we have on the list is Trade Desk. It provides a self-service platform that enables clients to purchase and manage digital advertising campaigns across various advertising formats. Media planners at an advertising agency will be able to purchase digital media programmatically on various media exchanges and sell-side platforms. TTD stock has been trading sideways since the start of the year. However, it has climbed by over 20% over the past week.

Last week, the company launched its operations in India and appointed Tejinder Gill as the company’s India General Manager. Rapid digitization of the media industry has provided a paradigm shift in the way Indians consume content online. So, Tejinder will be leading the company’s business and growth strategy to help Indian brands and publishers unleash their full potential. After all, digital advertising is the fastest-growing advertising segment in India.

In May, Trade Desk announced its first-quarter financial results. The company’s revenue came in at $220 million, up by 37% year-over-year. In the same quarter, it partnered with Walmart to launch a new demand-side platform based on the company’s platform that will provide advertisers with access to unique Walmart shopper data and sales measurement data. This goes to show how marketers are appreciating the value of data-driven advertising provided by the company. With all these in mind, would you consider TTD stock a top advertising stock to watch now?

Magnite Inc

Next, we have Magnite Inc, formerly known as The Rubicon Project, Inc. Essentially, the company provides a tech solution to automate the purchase and sale of digital advertising inventory for buyers and sellers. Its clients are mostly publishers of websites, Connected Television (CTV) channels, mobile applications, and buyers of digital advertising inventory. If you were one of the investors who believed in the company a year ago, you would’ve seen gains of over 400% over the past year.

Earlier this month, the company along with tvScientific, a CTV buying and attribution company, announced a first-of-its-kind program to connect CTV publishers with a new class of TV buyers. Specifically, digital-first performance marketers that have not traditionally engaged in CTV advertising. According to the co-founder and CEO of tvScientific, today’s $72 billion TV advertising market is exclusive to the top 300 to 500 brands that own the influential space.

Furthermore, it has been reported that 63% of all TV viewing is happening on streaming services today. It only makes sense that marketers are showing great interest in CTV advertising. So, both companies aim to empower a more diverse set of advertisers. Hopefully, this would then help bring additional demand for CTV publishers as well as provide performance marketers with a more accessible way to promote their brands. All things considered, would you consider adding MGNI stock to your watchlist?

Lastly, we have the social media giant that needs no introduction, Facebook. The company’s products include Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, and Oculus. Well, what better platform to advertise than the world’s largest social media platform.

Furthermore, 86% of people surveyed purchased the product they first discovered on its platforms. Instagram is adding new shopping tools, which allows people to search for products using an image. This comes as Facebook expands e-commerce offerings across its various apps. Therefore, a user can click on an image they see on Instagram and Facebook will direct them to similar-looking products for sale. This will roll out later this year in the U.S.

It doesn’t stop here, Instagram will also make it easier for some companies to offer AR-powered try-on. People can see how products such as makeup and shoes look on their actual bodies and faces.
