Meta's heavy spending raises questions about how it will earn a return even if its core business improves. Quarterly free cash flow fell from $13.2 billion in March 2026 to $1.7 billion in June and negative $1.2 billion in September. x.com 

Meta looks unattractive because its fines, capital raises and AI capex make the math ugly. The stock could trade back to the $500s, while hyperscalers probably have to make those raises with equity down 15-25%. Muse looks like a fad and average users may not need AI agents, matching LogicalThesis's view. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Meta's core advertising business is significantly outgrowing its biggest competitors even before factoring in the newer businesses it is building. Q3 ad revenue rose 26% year over year, versus 10.6% at Alphabet and 10.9% at Amazon. Back at 19x forward earnings, Meta is the most undervalued Magnificent Seven stock. x.com  x.com 

Meta's spending to support Muse and its frontier models is likely to precede monetization, leaving the stock vulnerable to high initial 2027 expense and capex guidance. A beat-and-raise quarter is expected, but the stock could react poorly to that guidance after its recent strong performance. x.com 

Meta looks cooked short term after massive call selling at its bear-market resistance. Long-term institutional accumulation at this level is the largest ever, but the market is clearly not accepting it short term; any bounce would only be off retail support at the moving averages, with institutional resistance above. That everyone sees Meta as the easy buy at a discount to indices fresh off their largest two-month rally is itself bearish, making it one of the most vulnerable stocks. x.com  x.com  … Show more

Meta's AI infrastructure financing raises the risk that a long wait for revenue and profit will keep its shares volatile. It disclosed plans to raise up to $95 billion. @amitisinvesting warns that further dilution could keep the stock stuck even if the buildout eventually pays off. Meta's selloff is still a massive buying opportunity. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Magnificent Seven stocks face continued pressure as AI capex keeps eating their free cash flow with no sign of slowing, and the market is not rewarding the builders for now despite the returns. The recipients of that spending in power, grid, chips and materials, such as TSMC, GE Vernova, Micron and ASML, look better. Concern is greatest for Tesla and Meta, whose recent moves seem disconnected and whose AI showcase was embarrassing; Microsoft, Amazon, Apple and Alphabet are less concerning. x.com 

Meta's falling free cash flow should keep its shares in a downtrend toward the 200-week moving average, as Microsoft and Alibaba fell this year on their own FCF declines. Meta should soon reach a buy zone and bounce, as Microsoft has. x.com 

Meta's earnings beat removes the immediate earnings risk from its bullish setup, with the 688 area holding on a closing basis. Q3 revenue was $64.6 billion, up 26%, and EPS of $3.83 beat estimates; Q4 revenue guidance is $73-76 billion. Wave 4 may have ended near 681; a close above the 9- and 21-day averages near 715 would confirm that count, with 755, 773 and 796 as targets. x.com 

Semiconductor fundamentals have improved as SpaceX and Meta say spending will rise further, while rates have come down. Earlier caution rested on fears that megacaps could not sustain spending and rising rates would slow AI investment; neither worry has played out. Today's selling feels more like stops being hit and investors giving up. x.com  x.com
