HSBC has upgraded Meta Platforms to a Buy rating, reflecting confidence in its new cloud computing strategy. Meta is negotiating a potential $10 billion deal to lease its computing infrastructure to AI research lab Anthropic, addressing the global hardware shortage for AI training. This move is part of Meta's broader plan to monetize excess cloud capacity, supported by a $145 billion investment in data centers this year. Meta's stock has risen 18% in July, outperforming the market, with strong technical indicators backing the upgrade.
