WAL STREET JOURNAL - Tinder faces slowing growth and investor skepticism. Despite boasting 47M monthly active users, Tinder struggles with its hookup reputation and fake accounts. Match's recent analyst meeting unveiled a $1.5B buyback, its first dividend, and a forecasted revenue decline for Tinder in 2025 - below market expectations - causing a 6% share price drop. To address challenges, Tinder plans improvements, including biometric verification, AI for better matches, and new features like "double-dating." While these updates are promising, they'll take time to yield results. Wall Street remains cautious, awaiting proof of execution.
