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.

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.

COMMENT

Holding cash, now what? It is difficult not knowing what the investor's needs are. You really should partner with a professional. Consider taking a wider portfolio approach. Longer term, he likes FB and GOOG. A sector that will benefit over the next decade.

BUY

TFSA? The volatility across markets is extremely high right now. Over the next 12 months, he is liking the risk-return prospects now. The market could still go lower from here. Don't max out your investments now, begin in pieces. FB, GOOG and AAPL are good places to begin.

BUY

In times like this, look at areas that have been completely smashed. You also want to own the best companies in the world that have sold off with the market. Stock's still growing at a decent clip, 8%. Still a disruptor.

WAIT

Talked about launching Libra, an interesting form of cryptocurrency. Washington read them the riot act on it, so institutions that were interested backed away. A great business, benefiting from online advertising. He prefers Google. Had a pretty good run, so hold off on buying. Good, solid free cashflow and business.

TOP PICK

One of his favourite names in the FANG space. 90% of revenues from advertising. 32% growth rate in the last 5 years. Earnings also growing at 30%. 21 consecutive quarters of positive earnings. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $246.52)

COMMENT

$195 is the first line he'd like at--will FB stay above it? $170 is the next line. If this goes sideways at $195, then enter it. The other level is $160, so if it falls below that, then sell.

HOLD

He thinks now is the time to consider setting an upward target -- his is $248. You could buy it here. There expense growth has been exceeding their revenue growth, which was in line with expectations due to privacy requirements. As an election year, he expects some big advertising revenues. A hold for now.
