AppLovin Corp (NASDAQ:APP) is one of the most promising growth stocks to buy now. On June 9, Piper Sandler reiterated an Overweight rating on AppLovin Corp (NASDAQ:APP) and a $665 price target. The research firm remains optimistic despite growing concerns about Meta Platforms, which has the scale and first-party data to bypass ad tech platforms.

Piper Sandler insists the competitive pressure has always existed, but has never stopped AppLovin from growing at above-market rates.
