Does This News Make Meta Platforms Stock a Buy?
Several years ago, Facebook parent Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) changed its name, partly to reflect its newfound focus on its metaverse ambitions. Although the company is still working on that project, its initiatives in artificial intelligence (AI) garnered more headlines recently. Meta is looking to transform its business through AI, and recent news suggests it may take a significant step in that direction by the end of 2026. Let's examine these developments and determine whether they make Meta Platforms stock a buy. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Meta is looking to automate its ad business Meta Platforms makes most of its money from advertising to its massive user base. As of the end of the first quarter, Meta boasted 3.43 billion daily active users across its websites and apps, which include Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp. However, Meta's ad business could become even better if it could provide more value to advertisers by improving their ad creation and launch processes. It already started to do that with the use of AI-powered tools -- for instance, helping advertisers define their target audience using AI. While businesses typically need to conduct research to figure that out, AI is making the job faster, easier, and cheaper. However, Meta is looking to take the next steps. According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, it aims to automate the process with AI from start to finish. Businesses will be able to use the technology at every step of the way -- to create images, tweak them, generate appropriate text, define the target audience, and more. Meta Platforms aims to complete this by the end of next year. What does this mean for investors? One more reason to buy the stock If successful, Meta Platforms' new AI tools for ads could reduce advertising expenses for companies while they achieve similar (or perhaps even better) results. If that's the case, demand for Meta's AI-powered tools to post ads across its websites and apps would increase significantly, leading to even more impressive sales. To be clear, Meta's ad business would be a key growth driver anyway. The digital ad market is still growing, and the tech leader's deep ecosystem of users makes it a valuable target for business clients. However, these new initiatives would further enhance this already highly profitable offering. Meanwhile, Meta is also improving engagement thanks to AI. Its algorithms have helped increase the amount of time users spend on Facebook and Instagram, so the company is working on both sides of the commerce equation with AI. These efforts should pay off in the long run, especially considering it has other potential growth drivers. It has been ramping up commercial messaging on WhatsApp, as well as working on the metaverse. Now, Meta Platforms isn't without risk. U.S.-China trade tensions could impact its financial results. During the first quarter, it received less advertising revenue from Asia-based retailers after the Trump administration ended a loophole that allowed some imports from China to enter the U.S. tax-free. Still, despite this headwind, Meta Platforms' first-quarter results were excellent. Revenue increased by 16% year over year to $42.3 billion, while net earnings per share came in at $6.43, 37% higher than the year-ago period. There might be more uncertainty if the trade wars continue, but Meta Platforms is showing that it can perform reasonably well despite that. Some might also point to the company's valuation as a reason to avoid the stock. Meta's forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 27.4 as of this writing, much higher than the average of 19.1 for the communication services industry. But given the Facebook parent's excellent results and strong prospects, it seems worth a premium. In my view, Meta Platforms will more than justify its relatively steep valuation in five years or more, which still makes it a stock worth owning for a long time. Should you invest $1,000 in Meta Platforms right now? Before you buy stock in Meta Platforms, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Meta Platforms wasn't one of them.

The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be stockholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.

Musk says he regrets some X posts he made about Trump
Social Sharing Billionaire businessman Elon Musk said on Wednesday he regretted some of the posts he made last week about U.S. President Donald Trump as they had gone "too far." Trump said on Saturday his relationship with Musk was over after they exchanged insults on social media, with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO describing the president's sweeping tax and spending bill as a "disgusting abomination." Musk has since deleted some posts critical of Trump, including one signalling support for impeaching the president. He also deleted a post in which he claimed without evidence that the government wasn't releasing more information regarding what it knows about Jeffrey Epstein because of Trump's past association with the infamous alleged sex trafficker who died in jail in 2019. "I regret some of my posts about President Donald Trump last week. They went too far," Musk wrote in a post on his social media platform X on Wednesday, without saying which specific posts he was talking about. Tesla shares rose 2.3 per cent in pre-market trading. Don't support Democrats, Trump warns Declaring his relationship with Musk over during interviews last weekend, Trump said there would be "serious consequences" if the billionaire decided to fund U.S. Democrats running against Republicans who vote for the tax and spending bill. Trump also said he had no intention of repairing ties with Musk. On Monday, Trump said he would not have a problem if Musk called and that he had no plans to discontinue the Starlink satellite internet provided to the White House by Musk's SpaceX but might move his Tesla off-site. "We had a good relationship, and I just wish him well," Trump said. Musk responded with a heart emoji to a video on X showing Trump's remarks. WATCH l A timeline of the relationship, and the rupture: Will Donald Trump and Elon Musk destroy each other? | About That 13 hours ago Duration 15:38 How did two of the most powerful men on the planet — Donald Trump and Elon Musk — go from friends to foes embroiled in a public meltdown? Andrew Chang explains what drove a wedge between them and why it may be in their best interests to reconcile sooner rather than later. Images provided by Getty Images, The Canadian Press and Reuters. (Additional credits: 4:35 - MSNBC/YouTube; 4:37 - CNN/YouTube; 4:29 - CBS News/YouTube) In 2018, Musk declared in a Twitter post that he was "not a conservative" and that "humanitarian issues are extremely important to me." But his political views changed, and in 2024 he bankrolled a large part of Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, spending nearly $300 million US in last year's U.S. elections, taking credit for Republicans retaining a majority of seats in the House and retaking a majority in the Senate. Musk led downsizing, foreign aid cut efforts Trump then named him to head an effort to downsize the federal workforce and slash spending, despite Musk's apparent conflicts of interest leading several companies subject to government regulation. Musk individually or with his companies had faced inquiries into alleged securities violations, questions over the safety of Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) systems, potential animal welfare violations in Neuralink's brain-chip experiments and alleged hiring discrimination practices at SpaceX. Musk left the role late last month after criticizing Trump's marquee tax bill, calling it too expensive and a measure that would undermine his work at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk's DOGE, not a Congress-approved department, took dramatic steps to reshape and shrink the federal government. Agencies were dismantled, and thousands of federal workers were fired, dismissed or reassigned, leading to a spate of lawsuits challenging the moves. As a result of the moves, significant foreign humanitarian aid from the U.S. government was scaled back, leading to concerns from global health organizations. Musk characterized much of that funding as fraudulent, though Democrats charged that Musk statements on specific agency initiatives have largely only highlighted actions he disagrees with politically, such as measures to provide condoms to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. Musk's activities led to protests at many Tesla dealerships across North America, with vandalism reported in some instances. "Elon Musk's Legacy Is Disease, Starvation and Death," New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg wrote, citing the impacts around the world of cuts to the United States Agency for International Development, when Musk announced late last month he was returning to the private sector full-time. Democrats have expressed alarm at members of Musk's DOGE team, who were not confirmed by Congress, having access to sensitive governmental, personal and payment data related to the federal civil service.
