Meta Platforms, Inc. (META-Q) has shown strong performance in its recent earnings report, beating estimates with earnings per share (EPS) of $8.88 and revenue of $59.89 billion. However, the stock faced volatility, experiencing a significant drop of 11.33% following an announcement by CEO Mark Zuckerberg regarding increased capital expenditures aimed at enhancing AI infrastructure. Despite initially surging by 10% after the favorable earnings report, shares have been trailing downward, confusing investors. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, forecasting lower earnings and revenues in the upcoming quarter while social media mentions have seen a substantial increase of 319% in the past 24 hours, pointing to heightened interest in the stock.

DON'T BUY

Issues of privacy and hate mail. Online advertising is a continuing trend, but she's chosen Alphabet instead. FB has to keep spending money to deal with these regulatory issues. You want a very strong balance sheet. Alphabet has net cash, so they have more cash than debt and can fund their own growth.

BUY

They've gone from 0 to 80% of their revenue coming from from mobile ads. Whatsapp and Instagram have also done very well. FB will weather the storm from Washington and other governments. Their cash flow is so strong. They have so many users across the globe. Trades at a reasonably low multiple in the $20s. FB is part of the safe tech blue-chip trade. Will continue to do fine.

TOP PICK

One of his favourite tech/communication companies. Largest online social network in the world. Subscriber rate continues to astound. Expected revenue 77B in 2020. Advertisers and marketers love it. Paying 33x forward earnings for 23% long term expected growth rate. Buy on the dips. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $249.27)

DON'T BUY

She does not own FB -- holding GOOG instead. FB has done well, but the biggest risk is regulatory related. They will need to spend more on putting privacy procedures in place. This is why they hold GOOG.

BUY

He thinks it is one of the greatest businesses he has ever seen. They are finally monetizing WatsApp. He does not think you have missed it. It is still reasonably valued and has a long runway ahead of it.

TOP PICK

What they're doing in shopping interesting while their ad business will grow a lot in the coming year. It's trading at 20x earnings, growing at 30%, while the market stands at 20x, growing at 2-3%. Incredible value. They have a relationship with Shopify. (Analysts’ price target is $240.30)

BUY

Ultimately there are several structure themes being accelerated by this crisis and several that are being decelerated by it. FB-Q is in the former. They have an opportunity to take whatsapp and monetize it. Between their platforms they have about 3 billion users.

TOP PICK

It's battled privacy issues in recent years, but not lately because of the virus. Now, we are spending more time online to socialize, so FB is poised to do well. They're growing cash flow and revenue around 21%. They trade at just over 20x PE. Still a cheap stock, and growing fast. (Analysts’ price target is $237.74)

BUY

He likes it. The issue is that a lot of their revenue comes from advertising. They saw a flattening out of that decrease in advertizing. He thinks it will come back on others of their digital platforms. He thinks some of their platforms are not fully monetized. We may have to give up some civil liberties to have a normal life here.

TOP PICK

He bought in recently. Earnings a few weeks ago actually showed a 2% revenue beat. They really are best in class in return on investment. He sees a near term floor of $200 -- a good level to buy. His target is $300. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $235.82)

TOP PICK

They reported earnings last week that were tremendous. Internet advertizing is weak but will probably have growth for the year. It knows what people want. The goal is to be a super app and to monetize payments. (Analysts’ price target is $235.59)

COMMENT

He does not own FB. He prefers GOOG, which has a stronger financial position and has a better advertising revenue model. Online advertising cuts will impact both of these companies, however. He thinks GOOG will remain profitable going forward.

WATCH

It was in good shape before this crisis. There is no point in businesses advertizing when they are closed, so revenues from advertizing could go down but people will spend more time on Facebook when locked down so exposure should go up. Watch the valuations and how they move into the election due to allegations of false news on their platform.

COMMENT

He's still concerned about getting Facebook's earnings in a month when that is released. Likely then, he will bring down his hedge and get more invested in this and other big tech companies.

WATCH

FB-Q is certainly a buy if it got back to $135.
