Facebook's Big Move

Updated

The following video is from Thursday's Investor Beat, in which host Chris Hill, and analysts Jason Moser and Matt Koppenheffer dissect the hardest-hitting investing stories of the day.

Shares of Facebook rose on Thursday. The social networking company reported that mobile revenue grew to 30% of the company's total advertising revenue. But Facebook wasn't the only big mover on Wall Street on Thursday. Shares of Yelp rose more than 25% after the reviews site posted a surge in first-quarter revenue. Could Yelp be a better play?
