Every two weeks, we host a Stock Battle on our X page between two competing companies. Which one is the favorite among our followers? And find out which one we think has the stronger fundamentals.
And the winner is...Airbnb with 73% of the votes!
Airbnb and Booking Holdings are two of the biggest names in online travel. As people started traveling more again in 2022 and 2023, both companies saw a big increase in bookings, especially for international trips. Even though they’re in the same business, the two companies are very different.
Both use websites and apps to help people book places to stay. They don’t own hotels or homes themselves, they just connect travelers with places to stay and take a small fee for each booking. They are well-known around the world and have benefited from changes like more people working remotely, using digital tools, and choosing new types of travel.
