Gil Luria has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to Meta’s strong execution and strategic investments. The company delivered first‑quarter results that exceeded expectations on both revenue and earnings, driven by robust advertising performance, higher ad prices, and growing impressions across its platforms, with management also guiding for solid double‑digit revenue growth next quarter despite some deceleration.
At the same time, Meta is aggressively investing in AI and compute infrastructure, raising its capital expenditure outlook to support frontier model development, superintelligence initiatives, and a more efficient product‑creation engine. Luria views these elevated data center and technology investments, along with early traction from the Meta SuperIntelligence team’s Muse Spark model, as positioning the company for long‑term leadership in AI, justifying his Buy rating and $850 price target based on a premium earnings multiple.
In another report released today, Barclays also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $830.00 price target.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 219 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is positive on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders buying their shares of META in relation to earlier this year.
