A New Mexico judge has imposed Meta Platforms, Inc.

Public Nuisance Ruling On August 6, […]

Gold recent rally is mostly due to five big buyers: four central banks and Tether, a company that deals in cryptocurrency. Tether is buying for the very reasons that central banks are—to diversify its holdings and hedge against inflation and significant dollar weakness, which Tether’s crypto stablecoin USDT is pegged to. In the first half, Tether bought more than 27 metric tons of gold—matching Kazakhstan.

Institutional investors pulled back slightly from key stock market segments such as semiconductors, AI infrastructure and megacap technology companies during the second quarter, with few big bets in either direction, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings show. A Reuters analysis of quarterly 13F filings from 6,371 pension funds, hedge funds, wealth managers and other institutional investors reveals a narrow gap between the number of investors increasing their positions and those reducing them, but in many cases the gap swung slightly negative. Nearly 44% of filers reviewed trimmed their holdings of the Magnificent Seven group of megacap tech firms such as Microsoft and Meta Platforms, while 42% initiated or expanded their holdings of this group.

Meta removed hundreds of thousands of suspected teen accounts, but regulators say platform compliance remains inadequate.

Reddit just scored S&P 500 membership, but the pop is already fading and the stock sits down 24% for the year. The path back to $200 depends on forces that index inclusion alone cannot deliver.
Data-center guarantees could matter if AI economics weaken.

Anthropic's investors are penciling in a $2 trillion October IPO that would shatter every record in stock market history, and the revenue growth backing that number is genuinely jaw-dropping. But one overlooked pattern in mega-cap listings suggests the opening bell could be the worst time to buy.

Should you give up on Meta Platforms?
The standards target projects seeking interconnection within ERCOT, while Meta’s 1-GW campus will be served by El Paso Electric. Existing tax incentives and road funding remain in effect.

Bill Ackman once torched $400 million exiting Netflix, then swore off the stock entirely. Now he's building a new position while his fund trails the market badly, and his reasoning this time sounds nothing like 2022.

Meta shares are under pressure amid fears about heavy AI spending. Roger McNamee, co-founder of Elevation Partners, recently said in a program on CNBC that Zuckerberg is trying to create an “illusion” that the company is positioned well in the AI race. He thinks the company is losing the race and criticized Zuckerberg’s latest manifesto […]

Meta's ad engine is humming and Alphabet's cloud is accelerating, yet both stocks trade at multiples that look almost suspiciously cheap for hyperscalers of this caliber. Something is keeping investors away, and figuring out what reveals a lot about where the real opportunity sits.

Meta is pouring an almost incomprehensible sum into a single Louisiana parish, and the ratio of dollars to permanent jobs raises a question every state chasing AI investment should be asking.

At the same time, market based multiples also point to the shares screening as undervalued, which is unusual when both methods line up on the same side. Meta Platforms has returned 110.5% over the past 3 years, which means the current valuation debate is happening after a strong...
