Brian White’s rating is based on Meta Platforms’ strong financial performance and promising growth prospects. The company reported a significant revenue increase of 26% in the third quarter of 2025, surpassing both Brian’s and the market’s expectations. This growth was driven by robust advertising revenue and impressive sales from Reality Labs, indicating a healthy expansion in Meta’s core business areas.
Despite the challenges posed by regulatory scrutiny and a challenging macroeconomic environment, Brian White believes that Meta is well-positioned to capitalize on digital advertising trends and AI innovations. The company’s strategic investments in AI, including the establishment of Meta Superintelligence Labs, highlight its commitment to future growth. Although substantial spending is anticipated in 2026, the potential for increased monetization of AI efforts and the expansion of its platform supports the Buy rating.

In another report released today, Wells Fargo also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $802.00 price target.

Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 280 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.
