Why Facebook Stock Popped Today
Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) stock is up 4.2% in 11:20 a.m. EDT trading Friday on a pair of positive news reports. In one, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is quoted as playing down the challenge of Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) new App Tracking Transparency tool that prompts users to decline giving Facebook (and other apps) "permission to track you across apps and websites."
In a second item, Facebook is said to be expanding its potential audience of Instagram users by working up a version of the site suitable for use by children under age 13.
