This summary was created by AI, based on 7 opinions in the last 12 months.

Meta Platforms, Inc. has shown significant performance in its recent earnings report, surpassing both earnings and revenue estimates, which fueled a substantial rise in social media mentions. Despite this initial surge, the stock experienced a notable decline following CEO Mark Zuckerberg's announcement of increased capital expenditures to support AI infrastructure. Analysts remain divided, with some expressing confidence in the company's long-term growth potential, especially related to advertising boosted by AI. Current evaluations suggest that the stock appears reasonably valued in comparison to competitors, with a favorable growth rate relative to its price-earnings ratio, indicating solid market positioning as it navigates the evolving social media landscape.

SELL

He got stopped out of Meta. In late 2024, he bought at $560, $610 and $620, added more in April 2025 at $510, and most of his position was called away last August at $730 (before it rose higher), then trimmed late December at $656, in January at $616 and was stopped yesterday at $550. He made money instead of holding and losing 5%.

BUY

Is already overweight this name, which is -20% this year. Their business set has gone from cap-lite to cap-heavy. The market is digesting this and waiting to see what will be monetized, which they are starting to. If you don't own, this is a great time to look at it.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 19/25, Down 8%)

She actually added to it. Seeing a reaction to headlines, not a change in the core business. Market's repricing risk, especially around regulations. Historically, has adapted every time there's a challenge.

Recent court judgement reflects standards that need to be set, no long-term impact on stock price.

Her price target is $860, upside potential of 57%. Ranks 9/10.

BUY
They must pay a $375 million for violating a New Mexico law about child exploitation.

It trades at 20x PE, and generates huge free cash flow. It's a catch-22: social media addiction drives these numbers but parents need to do a better job to keep their kids off social media, which also allows society to communicate freely.

BUY

Downside risk is likely $600, but is more likely to bounce. Today announced it will delay rolling out its AI. Is not surprised. Delays happens alot in tech. He owns a full position, but otherwise would add more now.

BUY

Keeps all the cloud storage for itself (though could be a potential funding source if that was opened up). Funding data centre buildout is through advertising. Market liked earnings last month. Lots more room to run on AI. Pulled back since then, a buying opportunity. 

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 17/25, Up 31%)

Drawdown due to spending on AI. Tons of cash, and the winners will be those who can afford to spend across all 9 innings. Core holding in his global growth fund.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 14/25, Up 10%)

Loves it. Disappointed up only 10%, had been up more. Part of the AI hysteria/panic going on. Makes no sense for one of the most dominant, profitable companies in the world run by one of the world's most innovative business people. Trading at less than 19x PE, less than market multiple but growing at 10x the market.

Spending a lot of $$, but can afford it. At risk if it doesn't make these investments.

DON'T BUY

Hard to be bearish on it over the longer term. Ubiquitous in people's lives. Nothing against it, but you have to pick your spots in the Mag 7 and he owns GOOG and MSFT.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Loves it. Big swings give her a chance to add. Beneficiary of AI on monetization (as opposed to infrastructure) through advertising. Last quarter, revenue grew ~24% YOY -- impressive. Tells her that AI investments already translating into real dollars. Revenue growth of 20% still expected this year.

Fundamental ranking of 9/10, analysts rate it Buy or Outperform and see 35% upside from here.

WEAK BUY

His preference in the digital ad space is GOOG, but he likes this name. Unique platform, generates a lot of value. Massive user base allows it to monetize quite well.

PARTIAL BUY

Loves it. Big differentiator is that they actually use data services and computational power for themselves. Good runway to analysts' price target. Definitely pick up 1/3 here, another ~$635, and again at $605.

(Analysts’ price target is $805.00)
BUY ON WEAKNESS

Is up only 1% the past year, but has the cheapest PE of the Mag 7 and is a cash-flow machine. A lot of the AI is not priced in, but are investing heavily in AI. They are sharp people. He bought this on a pullback.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 25/25, Up 9%)

Still one of the best ways to play AI, seeing the evidence in its revenues. Guiding to 30+% revenue growth next quarter. Curated ads via AI are working. Core business is doing so well. Reasonable valuation.
