Why Unity Software's Stock Is Trading Lower Today

Unity Software U shares were trading lower Friday, potentially in sympathy with Activision Blizzard ATVI after it fell on third-quarter results.

Activision uses Unity's engine in some of its products. Overall market price action could also be weighing the stock down.
