#5 - The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD)
As a veteran of advertising and marketing communications agencies, I appreciate what The Trade Desk (NASDAQ: TTD) brings to the table. The company operates a cloud-based platform that allows “ad buyers” to create, manage, and optimize data-driven digital advertising campaigns. And they can do so using different ad formats.
This made The Trade Desk a big winner during the pandemic as many advertisers raced to capture the eyeballs of consumers who were quite literally a captive audience. In fact, TTD stock was growing so fast that the company executed a 10-for-1 stock split in June to make its shares more accessible. So far, investors have reacted positively to the split. Shares are up over 20% in the last month.
Keeping shares affordable may turn out to be a savvy move since one of the obstacles for The Trade Desk is that it competes with the “Walled Gardens” of competitors such as Amazon Web Services and Facebook.
