Market Prophit compiles and analyzes social media commentary that is related to the stock market and general investing, and then elaborates statistics that track sentiment for both experts (Market Prophits) and the public (the Crowd).
On late Tuesday, Benzinga spoke with Market Prophit’s CEO Igor Gonta, who shared some comments on trending stocks.
Netflix
When questioned about Netflix, Inc. NFLX’s seven-days decline, the Chief Executive attributed the fall to “increased worries about competition growing in the streaming business as Apple Inc. AAPL mulls it’s own streaming service.”

Finally, there’s GoPro Inc GPRO, which surged on Tuesday after the company unveiled its new Odyssey virtual reality camera.
