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.

COMMENT

He's concerned about the trend of earnings and what is the trend of fair market value. If you stay in the company and it continues to rise, it tends to rise since the company is growing at 16%.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Future growth as a long-term hold, despite regulatory risk? It has been volatile and under regulatory microscope, which won't change. But they've had some good quarters and impressive user growth. They still need to monetize Instagram and Whatsapp, which will amount to more revenues. He expects FB to turn more to the payments space. With shares around $200, buy this when FB stumbles under Congresional pressure, not at current levels--the positivity has been priced in. He prefers other tech stocks.

DON'T BUY

Only two ways to play online ads are Google and Facebook. He chose Google instead. FB has a good operating model. Breaking up a big company is difficult, so the anti-trust threats are overblown. Facebook has to change behaviour, but it already has started. An attractive valuation, but there are better ways to invest. He understands why somebody would like this.

TOP PICK

It is growing faster than GOOG-Q and the stock is trading at a valuation lower. They are growing three times faster than the S&P 500 but you are only paying a 20% premium. (Analysts’ price target is $234.21)

COMMENT

She does not own Facebook and is not inclined to. She favours Alphabet instead. She expects regulatory scrutiny to remain for Facebook for some time to come.

STRONG BUY

When they IPOd they had zero revenues in mobile ads. Now, they own that. They face no competition from another app (that they don't own). He's not even on Facebook, but he owns it. They know how to make money. It is one of THE stocks to own in big-cap tech (like MSFT).

PARTIAL BUY

We have not had a correction in this for a year. This is a good on a pull back. His model price is 182.22 or 8% lower than it is now. It will go higher if it goes up in a US melt-up. Buy a little bit here.

BUY

He owns it for growth investors. It's not expensive vs. its growth. A terrific company, though facing political pressure and taxation problem from France. The CEO is a polarizing figure, but he'll hold onto it.

DON'T BUY

Twitter makes money through advertising. He would prefer Google or Facebook. The risk is that Twitter could be hurt if Donald Trump is not re-elected.

TOP PICK

Very impressed with the use of Facebook in Asia. Flat for a couple of years due to political noise. 27X PE for a company that is growing 20%+ is pretty cheap. Thinks the stock will continue to move higher and higher. (Analysts’ price target is $235.00)

BUY

Used to own it but he took profits. It’s essentially in a duopoly for digital advertising. There are aspects that they haven’t fully monetized so they could continue to raise earnings. Long term outlook is good, but there are regulatory headwinds.

COMMENT

Has been marking time for a year. People often forget about Instagram. He's not sure that he's all that interested in it.

TOP PICK

Secular growth story. Great long-term hold, despite current issues. Advertisers will continue to pay more. 20 consecutive quarters of positive earnings surprises. PEG ratio of only 1.1. Not expensive. Favourite FANG stock. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $235.00)

BUY

Their business model looks resilient and they dominate their space. Earnings for next year of $9 per share compare to $6.50 this year. Regulatory issues are an overhang, but their relative price performance compared to the market continues to improve. He bought the stock.

TOP PICK

It is going to be growing its revenues over 20% next year. The multiple is only 21 times next year's earnings. (Analysts’ price target is $235.00)
