Meta Platforms (META) Stock Rebounds as Big Tech Rallies, But WhatsApp Ban Threat and AI Spending Keep Risks High
Meta shares closed at $647.95 on November 28, up 2.3%, capping a 9% weekly gain and lifting market value to about $1.6 trillion. The rally comes as investors weigh heavy AI spending, a $15.9 billion tax hit that slashed Q3 net income by 83%, and new regulatory threats to WhatsApp in Russia and Italy. The stock remains well below its 52-week high near $796. Technical models now rate META a short-term “sell candidate.”
