Why is the market cap of Twitter so low (not even 10% of fb)?


Twitters ads never generated as much as facebooks, and FB offered as services on 3rd party websites.


Facebook has two social media applications, one chat product, Oculus etc. They are more diversified than Twitter.

Also, the simple reason is profit. Unlike Twitter, FB makes very high profits on 25x revenue of Twitter


It is not actually generating much of net income. Or even losses money.
