Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) (CNBC)
Shares of Snap plunged as much as 5 percent to session lows on Thursday after Rihanna instructed her 60.9 million Instagram followers to delete the app. It’s the second time in a month an A-lister has done some serious damage to Snap’s market capitalization. Earlier this week, Snapchat users began to notice an ad featuring 30-year-old pop icon Rihanna and her former boyfriend, Chris Brown, for the game, “Would You Rather?” The ad, which asks users to choose between slapping Rihanna or punching Chris Brown, seems to reference — and make light of — the couple’s infamously abusive relationship.

Image Sensing Systems, Inc. shares climbed 32.6 percent to $4.178. Image Sensing reported Q4 earnings of $0.13 per share on revenue of $4.34 million. The company announced resignation of CFO Richard Ehrich.
