Which Stocks Are Primed For India's HUGE Social Media Market?

QYOU Media Inc

ValueTheMarkets News Commentary - India is on course to soon become the planet's biggest social media market, with the country gaining some serious ground on China. According to Statista, India's 1.18 billion unique users will be just 33 million behind the top spot. This article examines who is seeking to capitalize on this huge market with reference to Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META), Snap Inc (NYSE: SNAP), Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) and QYOU Media (TSXV: QYOU) (OTC: QYOUF). Meta Platforms enjoys a dominant position in terms of platforms and uses India to test out new monetization strategies. Alphabet has an already hugely successful product in the country, and one of its features looks set to go from strength to strength. Finally, Snap is seeking to leverage its massive audience in the country. QYOU Media (TSXV: QYOU) (OTC: QYOUF) produces and distributes content created by social media stars. It has a multitude of TV channels and platforms and is attracting a rapidly growing audience. Now, the business has brought in bonafide social media royalty to push it to the next stage. It has appointed Indian digital leader and strategist, Raj Mishra, to the role of Group CEO of its India operations. Mishra has held leading roles in some of the most successful app businesses in India. This includes an instrumental role at Musical.ly (now TikTok), leading it to over 150 million monthly active users. He served as Country Head and led Musical.ly to become the most downloaded app on Android and iOS app stores. He oversaw the rebranding transition from musical.ly to TikTok after its 2017 acquisition wherein it racked up 611 million downloads in under three years. Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META) is dominant in the Indian social media market. The company's flagship Facebook app has a 55% market share in the country, according to data from July 2023 provided by Statista. Additionally, the same source has its Instagram app as the second biggest platform in the country, with a market share of 36%. Such is the might of the platforms that they have both been confident enough to launch new paid subscription services for Indian users who want an ad-free experience. This is symptomatic of how the company has been operating Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp in the country, with the Financial Times noting that India is often used as something of a testing ground. As well as introducing subscription fees, innovations include click-to-message ad formats. These connect customers and businesses within various chat applications, with the company taking home commission from all business done via the route. Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has a huge interest in Indian social network users too. That's because India is the largest audience for the company's YouTube video sharing and social media platform. Data from Statista shows that 462 million Indians tuned in to YouTube in October 2023, with the United States in a distant second place with 236 million. What this tells us is that India is hugely important for YouTube and, by extension, its parent company. The business has a major edge in the country too. With Chinese mega-app TikTok having been banned in India three years ago, the short-form video content space is missing a major competitor. YouTube's "Shorts" feature is going a long way to filling this void, helping the company to maintain its huge numbers of viewers in the country. Snap Inc (NYSE: SNAP) is another business we must discuss when touching on short-form video. Snap has also become hugely popular in India, with figures from Statista showing that its user base is 59% higher than that of the United States. If nothing else, this is a testament to how crazy about social media the Indian population is! But there is still room to grow, according to forecasts. Projections from Statista indicate that, following a ninth consecutive annual increase in user base, the platform will reach 158.63 million users and therefore a new peak in 2027. But how is the company seeking to capitalize on this user base? Like QYOU Media, the company has recently appointed an industry star to run its Indian operations in the form of former Google executive Pulkit Trivedi. With sagging revenues, the app is reportedly targeting India for new growth amid efforts to localize services and shore up ad revenues. India is a massive prospect for social media-savvy companies. But there are multiple routes to taking advantage of this exciting opportunity. QYOU Media has achieved consistent quarterly YoY revenue growth and has brought in a social media whiz to push things to the next level. Meta Platforms is rolling out subscription fees and new ad technology, while Alphabet is taking advantage of short-form video. Finally, Snap is trying to solve the puzzle of its lagging revenues through localization. IMPORTANT NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER PAID ADVERTISEMENT This communication is a paid advertisement.

Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New York Stars Erin and Abe Lichy Launch Mezcal Brand: Mezcalum

Mezcalum

Husband and wife duo Abe and Erin Lichy, serial entrepreneurs and breakout stars of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New York, announced today the launch of Mezcalum - an artisanal, organic mezcal embodying time-honored Mexican traditions and the rich heritage of its spirit. Carefully crafted with a proprietary blend, Mezcalum is zero sugar, zero carb, and features 100% organic ingredients with no additives. With its launch, Mezcalum is on a mission to make mezcal sexy and transform the way consumers drink with a sophisticated and purposeful experience. “Mezcalum was an idea born from our love of drinking mezcal with family and friends in Tulum,” said Erin Lichy, Co-Founder of Mezcalum. “Inspired by the exuberant city and its rich culture, we set out to pay our tribute to Tulum with a unique Mezcal blend by marrying the Oaxacan culture and sexy beach vibe of Tulum. As an entrepreneur, mother and real estate agent, developer and designer, balance is key in my life, and Mezcalum offers just that; I can sip on it at night, and still wake up feeling refreshed and ready to conquer my day. Mezcalum is designed to be the spirit for wellness warriors.” Crafted with a proprietary blend of Espadin Agave and Cuishe (44% ABV), a rare and wild variety that only grows in highly specific regions in the central valleys of Oaxaca, Mezcalum is an all-natural spirit with low smoke-flavor levels, complex undertones and a great depth for a palatable taste. Handcrafted in Oaxaca, Mezcalum is created at a family-owned-and-operated distillery, Doov Yaal, with over 100 years of artisanal crafting experience. Committed to ethical and sustainable, farm to bottle practices, Maestro Mezcalero Carlos Mendez Blas selects and harvests agave hearts by hand when they’re at their peak, then roasts, ferments, and distills them using artisanal methods guided by generations of ancestral wisdom. “We created Mezcalum for all those who value wellness and balance, yet enjoy a nice drink at the end of the day”, said Mezcalum’s Co-Founder Abe Lichy. “Mezcal is not only one of the oldest distilled agave spirits and “father of tequila”, but also the purest agave spirit, offering among the lowest sugar and calorie counts of any spirit. Historically, Mezcal has been known as a rugged spirit that attracts a more masculine audience - but with Mezcalum, we are making the rich-history spirit more accessible, catering to anyone and everyone who enjoys a high-quality, artisanal sip. It has been a truly special experience for my wife and I to team up with our childhood friend, Chris, to bring a spirit to market that celebrates togetherness and invokes lifelong memories.” In addition to Erin and Abe bringing on their lifelong friend, Chris Roth as their third co-founder, the dynamic duo has an impressive roster of investors and advisors including the ‘curator of pop culture,’ Deuxmoi and New York Jets Wide Receiver, Randall Cobb. Passionate about philanthropy and giving back to Mexico, Mezcalum has committed to donate a portion of sales to a Mexico-based sustainability charity. More details to come. Mezcalum is now available for $49.99 in limited quantities at mezcalum.com with plans to expand beyond direct-to-consumer in select Tri-State retailers in December 2023 and nationally in 2024.

Sienna Resources, One Of The Largest Landholders In Nevada’s Lithium-Rich Clayton Valley, Begins Drilling At Elko Lithium Project

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga In order to achieve energy independence, it is crucial for the United States to focus on the growth of its battery industry, considering the increasing utilization of renewable energy in various sectors. Nevada has rich lithium deposits, making it an ideal location to strengthen the domestic battery sector. Lithium – a vital ingredient in the production of batteries for electric vehicles (EVs), renewable energy storage and electronic devices – plays a crucial role in making this happen. By prioritizing the development of this sector, the United States can lessen its dependence on foreign sources for lithium and battery manufacturing. Sienna Resources Inc. (OTCMKTS: SNNAF) is a company focused on exploring and developing mineral resources, with a specific focus on lithium and graphite. In the energy space, Sienna Resources is actively involved in identifying and acquiring lithium and graphite projects, particularly in regions known for their rich deposits of these minerals. The company aims to contribute to the growing demand for battery materials, as lithium is a key component for electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy storage. The company is making progress in the energy space, particularly in the lithium sector. Sienna has recently acquired the Elko Lithium Project in Elko County, Nevada, and will begin drilling soon. This project covers approximately 1,200 acres and is in close proximity to Surge Battery Metals' (OTCQX: NILIF) Nevada North Lithium Project, which has yielded high-grade lithium values according to recent reports. Sienna Resources has also recently completed the acquisition of the Silver Peak South Lithium Project (SPSLP), located in Clayton Valley, Nevada. This project connects with Sienna's existing Blue Clay Lithium Project, creating a continuous block of approximately 4,700 acres. With these acquisitions, Sienna has become one of the largest landholders in Clayton Valley. The company is strategically positioned in Clayton Valley, where many developments are taking place. Sienna is working on the pilot plant for lithium clay extraction by Century/Koch Technology Solutions. The results of this pilot plant could have a substantial impact on the industry. Another crucial development is the final analysis of the Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB) DLE pilot plant for brine on Pure Energy's property. This brine basin is home to the only producing lithium project in North America, Albemarle Corporation's (NYSE: ALB) Silver Peak deposit. Sienna Resources, along with Albemarle and Schlumberger, is involved in exploring this region, with each company playing a unique role. Sienna Resources reports it has sufficient funds to support its planned work, with over $2 million in the bank. This seems like an opportune time for the company to commence multiple lithium projects in Nevada, and they are also planning an aggressive marketing program to coincide with their upcoming work programs. The lithium deposits in Nevada, particularly in Clayton Valley, seem to hold promise and may be critical to helping the U.S. achieve energy independence. The region is already home to Albemarle's Silver Peak deposit, the only lithium-producing project in North America. With the increasing global demand for lithium, the development of lithium projects in this region is crucial for meeting the growing needs of the electric vehicle and renewable energy industries. Sienna Resources' presence in Nevada positions them to contribute to the domestic battery industry, reducing reliance on foreign sources of lithium and supporting the country's transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy sources.

Bitcoin scaled heights to the extent that it hit a 17-month high above the $35,000 mark, illustrating that it remains one of the top cryptos to buy. BTC was up by 30.8% in the past 30 days to hit $35,486 at the time of writing, according to CoinGeko data. Pundits believe the approval of spot Bitcoin ETF by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will make BTC to skyrocket to new highs, even going to the extent of hitting the $150,000 mark in the near future. On the other hand, PEPE continues to stamp its authority in the memecoin market, based on a remarkable surge. Therefore, PEPE is painting a bullish picture, given that its demand in the futures market hit a volume of $1.7 billion, with more than 420 million in the spot market, according to market analyst Plazma.

This Rising Company Is On A Mission To Solve Distracted Driving — Does It Have The Key To Helping End The Loss Of Billions Of Dollars And Numerous Irreplaceable Lives Every Year?

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga From texting to scrolling while driving, smartphones are a distraction that have made our roadways much more dangerous. A WHO report estimated that distracted driving is to blame for 1.35 million traffic fatalities worldwide each year. For companies that employ drivers, accidents caused by distracted driving costs them an estimated $60 billion annually. That doesn’t take into account the untold pain and suffering for friends and family who lose a loved one to a traffic accident. It's a problem that's expected to get worse as the use of cell phones continues to proliferate around the globe and by 2028, 5.1 billion people or almost two-thirds of the world's population will be a smartphone user. They aren’t shy when it comes to using their phones on the roadways either. In a recent survey by the National Distracted Driving Coalition 77% said that they use their phones while driving. That’s a lot of accidents waiting to happen and that is why SaverOne 2014 Ltd. (NASDAQ: SVRE), the Israeli tech startup, is on a mission to eradicate the scourge of distracted driving caused by smartphones. Through its recent global launch, the company is experiencing growing attention and traction. Taking Driver Safety To The Next Level The company develops a cutting-edge technological solution that prevents drivers from using distracting apps while driving. SaverOne’s technology automatically pinpoints and blocks only the mobile device located in the driver’s area. SaverOne’s technology is already installed in over 4,500 cars, trucks and buses and is integrated into the fleets of more than 100 companies, expanding from SaverOne’s homebase in Israel and now increasingly in the United States, Europe, the Middle East and elsewhere. SaverOne offers multiple compelling features that set its technology apart. It selectively blocks distracting apps such as messaging, while still allowing the driver access to hands-free navigation and other driving-related applications. What’s more, there is no action required on the part of the driver – the interface is intuitive, automatic, and doesn’t require consent. Another selling factor is that it doesn’t interfere with the other mobile phones of non-driving passengers in the same vehicle. Keeping Pedestrians Safe Too Beyond its driver-focused distraction prevention system, SaverOne, based on its unique technology, is developing a sensor for cars that are becoming increasingly autonomous, that detects Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) near the car and at potential risk of collision. Like drivers, VRUs which could be cyclists or even pedestrians crossing the street are also susceptible to smartphone distractions, adding another layer of risk. Among VRUs, which are the cause of 70% of the deaths in urban accidents, 40% are indeed pedestrians. With their attention on their phones, they often simply don’t look where they are going. Add bad weather or line-of-sight obstructions such as a parked car to the mix, and it can spell disaster. SaverOne’s technology aims to fix that by enhancing the performance of current Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) sensors – which include cameras, lidar and radar – through its ability to deal with NLoS (non-line of sight) hazards, adverse weather conditions and low visibility. SaverOne's solution detects VRUs in the vicinity of the vehicle to avoid and prevent a collision. Combined with its in-cabin system, SaverOne hopes to play a big role in reducing the number of accidents and thus the costs associated with them. Regulation Coming Down The Pike Making drivers safer on the road is a big opportunity for SaverOne, but so are its original equipment manufacturer (OEM) plans, aiming to sell its system to all categories of vehicle manufacturers. In fact, SaverOne is already closely working with major truck OEM Iveco in Europe and hopes launch a product with them next year. In the coming years, that may potentially become a bigger part of SaverOne’s business as new regulations in Europe set in. Starting in July 2024, the EU Regulatory Committee on Driver Distraction will require OEMs to integrate solutions into vehicle systems that prevent driver distractions. By July 2026, all new vehicles sold in the EU will have to have a solution integrated into their systems. Similar regulation may make its way to the U.S. and other countries presenting a big addressable market for SaverOne. Cell phones have enhanced our lives, but they also have their downside, demanding our attention and distracting us on the roads. Distracted driver accidents cost the world hundreds of billions of dollars annually and cause untold heartache. By preventing distractions and avoiding obstacles, over the coming years, SaverOne’s advanced safety systems have the potential to play a key role in the solution.
