Digital ad budgets slowing in 2025, UBS finds

-- Growth in digital advertising budgets is set to slow in 2025, according to a UBS, signalling caution amid economic uncertainty and potential tariff impacts. Buyers expect a 5.5% increase in digital ad spending over the 12 months, a slowdown of nearly one percentage point from the prior year, UBS said. Facebook (NASDAQ:META) is the only major digital platform expected to see an acceleration in ad budget growth, with buyers planning to increase spending by 1.7% year-over-year. Instagram growth is set to slow, though it remains a top choice for social commerce and potential TikTok budget shifts. Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) is forecast to see a relatively modest slowdown in ad growth to 2.8%, while Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) faces steeper deceleration across both its Search and YouTube platforms. YouTube's ad budget growth is expected to fall to 4.1% from higher levels last year. Among other platforms, Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) and Snap are both expected to see slight declines in ad spending, while The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) is projected to maintain relatively stable growth in connected TV budgets. On the traditional media side, nearly 60% of buyers expect to cut TV spending over the next two years, though sports programming remains a bright spot. Disney's cable networks showed the strongest ad spend intentions, while FOX showed the most year-over-year improvement. CTV continues to gain traction, with Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), YouTube, and Amazon Prime leading in advertiser interest, even as overall enthusiasm dipped slightly from last year.

I've Been Using the Photoshop iPhone App for Months, and Now Android Users Can Too

Adobe wants to help all of its professional photographers and creators edit while on the go. The company announced this week that Android users will be able to download a beta version of the Photoshop mobile app through the Google Play store. You can download the app now for free. Photoshop has been around for 35 years, but it's only been this year that Adobe released a true Photoshop mobile app built for on-the-go editing. When I got an early preview of the iPhone Photoshop app in February, I was surprised by how different the app felt from my experience editing photos on my laptop. But after spending some time with the app since -- and learning my way around the menus -- it feels like a more natural extension of the original Photoshop we all know and occasionally get super frustrated with. Photoshop loyalists will be glad to learn that many of the original Photoshop features are packed into the mobile app. The Android app will have many of the same features now at launch, like layers, masking and its AI tool generative fill. Tap select, the new mobile-friendly select option, joins more familiar tools like the magic wand, spot healing and object select. You'll also get access to Adobe's stock library, which makes licensing and importing outside images easy. Adobe said in a statement that it plans to release more features in the future. Because so much visual content is filmed and edited on phones, Tuesday's release will make it easier for professionals who are already Photoshop power users. It also helps the company stay competitive with other services like Canva and even AI companies introducing image and video generation abilities. Adobe's no stranger to AI; the company has been all-in on AI for the past few years. Its Firefly family of AI models is powering a number of generative AI editing tools across Photoshop, Lightroom and Premiere Pro.

Why Is Everyone Talking About Coupang's Stock?

Coupang is obsessed with customer delight. The company has been growing rapidly in recent quarters. The e-commerce company plans to buy back $1 billion of its shares. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Coupang (NYSE: CPNG) may not be a well-known company in the U.S., but it has certainly captured the hearts of consumers in South Korea, growing over the years to become the top e-commerce company in its home market. Coupang's solid performance has captured the attention of sharp-eyed investors, which explains its respectable 25% increase in stock price in the last 12 months (as of this writing). This article will delve deeper into the company and explore why investors are excited about it. Amazon has arguably been the most successful e-commerce company over the last two decades, leading to numerous clones attempting to replicate its business model in their respective markets. Most either don't perform well or fail outright, except for a handful, such as in China and Coupang in South Korea. Inspired by Amazon's customer obsession, Coupang strives to please its customers continually. One way is to provide a wide selection of products to customers, delivered at breathtaking speeds via its extensive in-house warehouse and logistics infrastructure. For instance, consumers can order fresh groceries and millions of other general merchandise items by midnight and receive products by 7 a.m. the next morning. If customers are unhappy with the products, they can tap a button on the app and leave the item outside their door for pickup -- refunds will be processed immediately after pickup. But that's just one part of the story. Coupang's efforts to delight its users have expanded far beyond their roots into other areas, including food delivery, online streaming, and services such as free appliance and furniture installations. Customers are eligible for all these perks for free if they join the Wow membership program. Unsurprisingly, customers love this approach, which explains Coupang's leading market share of 25% in South Korea. Coupang's success in South Korea has also prompted the company to expand into new geographies, such as Taiwan, and new business segments via the acquisition of Farfetch. While these new business additions will take time to bear fruit, they will open up new growth avenues for the e-commerce company. Coupang is also delivering solid growth. For the year ended Dec. 31, revenue surged by 24% (or 29% on an currency-neutral basis) to $30.3 billion on the back of growth in its e-commerce business and the acquisition of Farfetch. Coupang's growth continued into 2025, with revenue growing at 11% (or 21% on an currency-neutral basis ) to $7.9 billion. Top-line growth is just one part of the story. Coupang has gradually improved its margins over time, with adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margins improving from 3.9% to 4.8% in the last five quarters. The tech company targets adjusted EBITDA margins to exceed 10% in the long run, suggesting that there is still considerable room for improvement. In short, while Coupang is already generating tens of billions in revenue, it is well-positioned to sustain its growth momentum, leveraging its world-class infrastructure, vast customer base, and customer-obsessed culture. Coupang's recent share buyback plan is a significant milestone for several reasons. One, it suggests that Coupang has evolved from a high-growth, loss-making company to one that's growing more sustainably and responsibly. To the extent that it can return excess cash to shareholders, such a move also signals the company's confidence in its future, suggesting that management may view the shares as undervalued compared to the company's prospects. Additionally, with ample cash on its balance sheet ($6.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, as of the time of writing), management's share buyback plan demonstrates its discipline in capital allocation, which complements its other investments in growth and innovation. It also suggests that management has a clear strategy for capital allocation, which is likely to enhance long-term shareholder value. Coupang is a rare example of a successful Amazon clone that has achieved excellent outcomes. While continuing to execute its expansion strategy, Coupang is also on track to return excess cash to shareholders through share buybacks. Investors seeking to diversify their stock holdings beyond the U.S. may want to keep this company under their radar. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks?
