Investor keeps buying Meta shares despite market fears over heavy AI and Reality Labs spending.

An investor remains confident in Meta despite the market punishing the company for heavy spending on AI infrastructure and Reality Labs, which caused a $784 million free cash flow in Q2 2026. Meta's ad business continues to grow strongly, with Q2 revenue up 27.96% year-over-year and 3.6 billion daily active users across its platforms. The company maintains high profitability metrics and a strong balance sheet, supporting its long-term investment thesis. The main risk is the increasing capital expenditure, but the investor believes Meta's ad engine funds this growth and that CEO Mark Zuckerberg's controlling stake aligns spending with outcomes.

Meta Platforms holds a market cap of $1.70 trillion and trades at $708.20 per share on Pluang as of September 21, 2026, 22:12 WIB. The stock saw a strong 1-day gain of 6.46%, supported by a daily trading volume of over 27.5 million shares. With a dividend yield of 0.32% and an enterprise value slightly above market cap at $1.72 trillion, Meta remains a major player in the media sector with significant investor interest and liquidity.
