With a market cap of $16.8 billion, the company empowers millions of entrepreneurs and small businesses worldwide by offering tools and services to establish and grow their online presence.

GDDY stock has traded consistently below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages since mid-June, underscoring its bearish trend.
GoDaddy’s stock prices soared more than 5% in a single trading session following the release of its impressive Q3 results on Oct. 30. The company has observed a notable growth in ARR and average revenue per user; this has helped its total revenues for the quarter to grow 10.3% year-over-year to $1.3 billion, beating the Street’s expectations by 2.8%.
