Meta Platforms, Inc. (META), in its most recent earnings call, communicated significant gains during the year 2023 that suggest a profitable future trajectory. Central to this success are their broad spectrum of products and services, which include innovative offerings like Threads, Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, Quest 3, AI Studio, and Meta AI assistant. Utilizing smart glasses to interact with AI demonstrates the corporation's progressive perspective on technology. Moreover, Meta Platforms has noted a widespread, rising demand for privacy-oriented messaging platforms, as evident by the substantial increase in WhatsApp usage within the U.S and high user engagement levels on Meta-owned applications. Looking internally, Meta Platforms has solidified its growth strategy emphasizing AI, metaverse development, and further augmenting its Apps and Ads businesses. An expansion plan for the Meta AI assistant's abilities, a larger AI infrastructure, and facilitation of AI production with AI Studio are all part of this strategic roadmap. One key focus area moving forward involves steadfast dedication towards research and development in AI and Reality Labs. The escalated stock repurchase authorizations and predictions of regular dividends underscore Meta Platforms' enduring pledge to optimize shareholder value. To summarize, a look at the recent earnings call puts Meta Platforms, Inc. in a position of financial robustness with a consistent dedication towards AI innovation and broadening of its product and service offerings. Their current approach not only reflects the evolving consumer trends, including the preference for secure messaging platforms but also outlines a clear future expansion and investment plan. As per the CEO's remarks in the earnings call, the company intends to operate in a leaner manner going forward to enable better and quicker execution, reinforcing this value as a lasting component of their operational ethos.

Nesse episódio trouxemos pessoas que trabalham em uma FAANG ou BigTech pra contar pra gente a sua experiência. O termo FAANG prove das cinco maiores bigtechs atuais: Meta (FB), Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Netflix (NFLX), Alphabet (GOOG). Participantes: Fernando Cezar, Alexandre Duarte (@realaiexandre), Hugo Marques (@hugaomarques), Lucas Schmoeller (linkedin.com/in/lschmoeller).

They go over how now is a great opportunity to buy high growth names including Amazon (AMZN), Meta (FB), and Alphabet (GOOGL). Finally, they mention the best positioned tech stocks. Tune in to find out more.

We kick off this episode by tackling a topic that's been trending lately -- the “Everything Bubble.” So… what does that even mean?Well, it requires a look back to 2008. When the financial world was on the verge of ruin, the U.S. Federal Reserve pumped enormous amounts of stimulus into the economy. Those policies were meant to be a temporary medicine for the great financial crisis, but they stuck around as the economy struggled to get its groove back. And in 2020, when COVID-19 struck, the pattern repeated -- the Fed pumped tons of stimulus into the economy without taking any out. We call it “market heroin.”And all that excess liquidity the economy's enjoyed for so long has contributed to this “everything bubble.” It's why housing prices have soared, why stock valuations have ballooned, why start-ups have raised enormous amounts of capital for cheap. And if the Fed is forced to pop this bubble, the economy will be in the worst shape it's been in our lifetimes.The key to making the most of the market washout is finding those fundamentally great -- yet demolished -- stocks among the wreckage. And one of our favorites is still SoFi (SOFI). The stock got clobbered in sympathy with Upstart's poor guidance and subsequent nosedive. Yes, they're both fintech companies with exposure to lending, but they are so profoundly different that this selloff in SOFI stock is ludicrous. We saw this same irrationality in the last go-round of social media earnings. Meta (FB) had an awful print, and then all social media stock tanked. Snap (SNAP) dropped around 40% and then -- after reporting fantastic numbers -- jumped 50%. The behavior of the markets right now doesn't make sense. Put on your blinders and ignore the noise. Invest in what you have a high degree of confidence in and hold for the long term.The more conviction you have, the more you'll be rewarded.

Coinbase Global (COIN) reported first-quarter revenue that missed analyst estimates, while its overall trading volumes fell 44% from the fourth quarter. Revenue for the first quarter was $1.17 billion, compared with analysts' average estimate of $1.5 billion, according to FactSet. Coinbase also reported a quarterly net loss of $430 million, compared with a profit of $840 million in the fourth quarter. Trading volume was $309 billion in the first quarter, missing estimates for $331.2 billion and down from $547 billion in the fourth quarter. Monthly transacting users (MTUs) were 9.2 million, compared with 11.4 million in the fourth quarter and analyst estimates of 9.9 million. Instagram's non-fungible token (NFT) pilot is the first play in a creator monetization strategy that's still taking shape. Shortly after unveiling its “Digital Collectibles” product Monday, the Meta (FB)-owned social media platform signaled its interest in turning NFTs into a revenue stream for the creators catering to the platform's billion-plus user base. Figuring out how to leverage that base is to be determined. At launch, Instagram's NFT pilot will merely allow a handful of creators to share their digital art on the platform – no sales, trading or fees involved. Gucci has rolled out the crypto payment mechanism at its flagship stores in the U.S., including Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles, Wooster Street in New York and in Las Vegas, with plans to expand the service to its directly operated North America stores in the near future. Various digital assets will be accepted including bitcoin, bitcoin cash, ether, wrapped bitcoin, dogecoin, shiba inu and certain kinds of stablecoins.

The Fed also confirmed a May commencement for the runoff process to begin, while noting that all options reviewed features a more rapid pace of the prior 2017-2019 runoff, as expected. The language on rates was also hawkish - many would have preferred a 50bps move in March, but the Ukrainian crisis saw a 25bps move instead. Meanwhile, looking ahead, many participants noted that one or more 50bps increases in the target range could be appropriate at future meetings, particularly if inflation pressures remain elevated or intensified.Click here for the detailed release.US TRADEUS stocks closed with losses across the board, with more pronounced downside in the Nasdaq as mega-cap tech stocks sold off.SPX -0.98% at 4,480, NDX -2.17% at 14,498, DJIA -0.42% at 34,496, R2K -1.30% at 2,016.Click here for a detailed summary.NOTABLE US HEADLINESSEC is investigating how Amazon (AMZN) disclosed business practices and the Cos. use of third-party sellers' data is a focus of regulator's probe, according to WSJ citing sources.GEOPOLITICSRUSSIA-UKRAINENEGOTIATIONS/TALKSUkraine Foreign Minister Kuleba said at the Thursday meeting with NATO and G7 counterparts he will discuss the need to supply all necessary weapons to Ukraine, via Reuters.DEFENCE/MILITARYSenior US Defense Official said Russian forces near Kyiv have completed their withdrawal from the area but US has indications Russian troops are being refit and resupplied in Belarus, and the killings in Bucha appear to be deliberate and premeditated, according to Reuters.Russia's Defence Ministry said a Ukrainian fuel storage base was destroyed by Russian missiles in the Kharkiv region, according to Ria.UK military officials are said to be mulling plans to send armoured vehicles to Ukraine, according to The TimesUS is reportedly sharing intelligence with foreign banks to boost defences against cyberattacks, according to FT sources.ENERGY/ECONOMIC SANCTIONSUS President Biden said the US is going to keep raising economic costs on Russian President Putin, via Reuters.UK Foreign Secretary Truss said the G7 is working to crack down on more Russian banks; working on a timetable to eliminate Russian energy imports, via Telegraph.Russian Ambassador to the US says US sanctions on Russian banks are a direct blow to the Russian population, according to Interfax.US Senate set up Thursday 10:00EDT/15:00BST to vote to sync up with the House and revoke normal trade relations with Russia, according to Fox's Pergram.OTHERUS Treasury Secretary Yellen said she is concerned about Chinese lending around the world, it is often predatory and causes unsustainable debt, according to Reuters.US Secretary of State Blinken said he is not very optimistic about the possibility of reaching an agreement with Iran despite efforts, via Al Jazeera.Saudi Arabia has urged Yemen's new presidential council to start negotiations with Houthis, according to state news agency.CENTRAL BANKSECB's Nagel said savers may soon enjoy higher interest rates, according to a transcript of Ard interview.BoJ Board Member Noguchi said Japan's economy will likely continue to recover as pandemic and supply constraints ease; most important thing is for the BoJ to patiently sustain current monetary easing, via Reuters.IMF report noted that the BoJ "expressed concern" over IMF's recommendation to target short yields under YCC.

This is the Audio-version only of GerdTalks Episode 3, live-streamed on Youtube, LinkedIn, Twitch and many other platforms (not on Facebook:). More details: https://www.futuristgerd.com/gerdtalks3 Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/HNUUNKMQzTc Facebook / META has become toxic and needs to be purged. In this video I present my case against FB/Meta and explore the future of social media. AI-fuelled, data-driven and automated 'media' has become extremely powerful and omni-present in our lives. Digital feudalism is the new normal, and the surveillance economy is pervasive. Facebook/Meta is the prime example of what goes wrong when algorithms, an obsession with monetisation and a general lack of respect for human principles and ethics run the show. Meta/FB's increasing power and enormous technological prowess have resulted in rampant manipulation, fast-spreading misinformation, a boom in fake news, reality distortions and half-truths, and generally have amplified a feeling of despondency and loneliness among many of it's users (particularly on Instagram). On top of this FB/Meta represents the most perfect surveillance machine ever invented - and we've all been sucked into accepting this as 'normal'. And now, meta-master Zuck wants us to follow him into his glorious Metaverse, where we can be anyone, anywhere, anytime, and literally live in his perfect simulations. Who needs that messy real-life when you can have a perfect virtual life, anyway? I have a hunch that the Metaverse might turn out to be everything we've ever wanted, but will offer little of what we really NEED. In this video, I contemplate the implications and consequences of the concept that the Metaverse is the next edition of social media (and indeed the Internet)... only 100x as troublesome. In this video I also address the overall challenges of social media such as the many side-effects of AI-based content automation, and the aberrations resulting from what I call 'digital obesity' and excessive FOMO. I have come to the conclusion that too many social media companies - and particularly FB/Meta - have become a lot like 'Big Oil' - the externalities of their activities are not their concern; let someone else worry about them! I believe that we are facing a new threat of 'digital pollution' on top of the environmental pollution we have already caused - and that this has even more potential to damage our societies.

Ben is flying solo for the next 3 days as Tom and Andrew are on the road.

Andrew Horowitz, founder of Horowitz & Company, host of The Disciplined Investor podcast, and fan-favorite guest, starts the show with a New Year's resolution that's going well… [0:30] Usually, Andrew's a laid-back guy… but the Fed has him fired up. He shares the only solution to higher inflation—if the Fed doesn't screw it up. [3:05] Next, we discuss the huge moves in Meta (FB) and Amazon (AMZN)... and what they say about the current market environment. [11:00] Another thing that's got Andrew fired up: SPACs. He breaks down how these companies use gimmicks to drive up prices… and calls out one popular hedge fund manager for screwing over individual investors. [16:10] As always, Andrew shares some of his favorite stock ideas—including one company poised to benefit from the massive metaverse trend. [20:40] To wrap the interview, Andrew shares what's catching his attention outside the U.S… why diversification is critical, especially in today's markets… and what to watch out for if the U.S. dollar starts rising. [26:25] Super Bowl weekend is almost here, which means it's time for my yearly tradition: breaking down the matchup to pick a winner. I've been doing this for years, and my system has an 80% win rate. I share some interesting stats on this year's teams—the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals… and which one I believe will be this year's champion. [30:40] Finally, as you probably know, our security is now trading on the (Alternative Trading Platform) under the ticker CURZ. [47:55] Enjoyed this episode?

We have a few fun topics to kick off the show: Daniel highlights the PGA tour in Scottsdale, Arizona this week… And I'm boasting a new look after a haircut didn't go as planned. [0:30] As COVID cases trend lower, states like California and New York have begun to lift mask mandates and related restrictions. I highlight one group of stocks set to soar as everyone cheers the end of COVID. [2:40] After reporting weak earnings last week, Meta (FB) gave back a year's worth of gains… in two trading sessions. Daniel, who's been bullish on this name through COVID, shares his takeaway, both from a fundamental and an emotional perspective… And I highlight what I'd need to see to add to my own position. [11:48] Cannabis grower Canopy Growth (CGC) caught my attention with its earnings. I share why I'm intrigued by this space… and why I'd look to trade cannabis stocks vs. holding them long-term. [20:05] Finally, I answer some of your questions on our security, which officially began trading on the (Alternative Trading System) under the ticker CURZ. [28:45] Enjoyed this episode?

In this episode of Virtually Live, Shannon Rivkin covers: Gold, Magellan (MFG), Santos (STO), Woodside (WPL), and Meta (FB) 

Over the weekend, I attended my daughter's gymnastic competition... and found out (once again) why the saying “happy wife, happy life” is accurate. [0:30] It's a huge week here at Curzio Research. Yesterday, our security began trading on the tZERO ATS (Advanced Trading System). I share why investors should dig into the security token space… and how it's disrupting Wall Street's old ways of raising capital. [4:30] The opportunity in security tokens reminds me of several other revolutionary trends—from fracking to the Internet of Things (IoT)... And it benefits both issuers and investors. [7:35] Moving on, the Fed's coming rate hikes aren't priced into the markets. I highlight why the Fed won't be able to control inflation… [17:35] But as inflation moves higher, one left-for-dead sector is booming: traditional energy. I break down why the push to green energy is backfiring… and how to gain exposure to this space. [20:50] The volatility we're seeing right now is no joke… Some of the biggest stocks, from Meta (FB) to Amazon (AMZN), are moving 20% in a day—and moves like these are likely our “new normal.” [25:50] So, as we all adjust, I want to thank you, my listeners. We try very hard to help individual investors here at Curzio Research, and I genuinely appreciate all your support and feedback. [31:30]

The market showed signs of strength yesterday, but we’ll keep taking it one day at a time. The biggest story in markets yesterday was Jerome Powell and the Fed:Fed Chairman Jerome Powell: 1. "We will use our tools to get inflation back" 2. "If we have to raise rates more, we will" 3. "We probably remain in an era of very low interest rates" 4. 'It's a long road to normal' monetary policy All these statements contradict each other. Which is the point. Rate hikes have priced in to markets over the last month or so… So let’s move on to where we can make some money!EM is the best opportunity of 2022It looks to us like the tech market is nearing a short term low.Via Bloomberg/Sundial Research. 40% of stocks on the Nasdaq are down 50%+ from their 52 week high. More interesting in the context of the Nasdaq still near ATHs, which hasn’t happened before.The only other time this many stocks were down so much with the Nasdaq near a high was late 1999. The generals do generally get shot last. The generals are much cheaper, are arguably under-earning, have higher ROICs and are growing faster vs. 1999/2000 - many of them are basically just levered royalties on global GDP. SAAS: The superb QDS team at MS showing that their Crowded Longs (CRWD) and Expensive Tech (EVSA) baskets are 85% of the way through their typical downside move during a "rate shock" vs. indices only 40-50% of the way through. Software now approaching 2019 trough valuations.Combined with extremely light positioning in tech/growth by funds (nearing 5-10 year lows), the set up looks increasingly attractive.The issue growth stocks have is they are too expensive relative to the underlying growth, so there is no buyer. The only analysis that matters is how much do they need to grow over what time or how low do they need to go before they are attractive.RM Thesis: Growth is not broken. Far from it. This is a very healthy reset in QLCF (quality lacking cash flow™️) that will only last as long as big scary inflation headline #s do. When the scary headlines go away, multiples will expand and capital will flow back to the companies that define our future rather than the paint our past. Any 10 year rate below 4% is not going to suck a lot of $capital away from equity so money from everyone is still going to be looking for a home in the market. I don’t think we see multiples snap back - that party is over for now. However, I’m not paradigm shift where ‘value’ is king for years. Pain should end for best in class SMIDs before yr end but The cohort of “best in class” is always at best 20% of what people think actually belongs💸Reformed Millennials - Post of The Week21 Ideas from 2021 from David Parrel.Our favorites are highlighted.1. The Mind Creates Reality: The American Psychological Association once invited William James to give a talk on the first 50 years of psychology research.He simply said: “People by and large become what they think of themselves.”Then, he left.2. Make One Person Responsible: If you want to get something done, it’s tempting to put a huge number of people in charge. But often, when too many people are in charge, nobody accepts responsibility.This saying is illustrative: “A dog with two owners dies of hunger.”3. Kanye West, on Genius: "If you guys want these crazy ideas, these crazy stages, this crazy music, this crazy way of thinking, there’s a chance it might come from a crazy person.”4. The Knife Theory of Hiring: When you first start a company, you need Swiss Army Knife people who can do a little bit of everything. Once your company gets big, you need a bunch of kitchen knife people who do one thing very, very well.5. Sayre’s Law: In a dispute, the level of emotions are inversely related to what’s at stake. That’s why unimportant events can inspire such passionate arguments. In parts of academia, they say: “The battles are so fierce because the problems are so trivial.”6. Braess’ Paradox: Adding capacity to a system can counterintuitively slow things down. Highways are the classic example. For years, road designers have observed that adding more roads to a network can actually increase congestion and slow the flow of traffic.7. Current vs. The Wind: Novice sailors focus on the wind. Experienced ones study the currents. Since the winds change every day, the knowledge is ephemeral. But currents are persistent and predictable, even if they’re hard to see. Focus on the currents in life.8. Akrasia: In theory, we know how to behave. But in practice, we don’t always do it. The Ancient Greeks called this phenomenon “akrasia,” which translates to “weakness of will.” It describes our tragic proclivity to act against our best interests, even when we know what to do.9. Paradox of Consensus: Under ancient Jewish law, if a suspect was unanimously found guilty, they were deemed innocent. Total agreement signaled a systematic flaw in the judicial process. Often, when everybody is thinking alike, nobody is thinking at all.10. The Paradox of Weirdness: The weird parts of ourselves are actually the thing that’s normal. People are actually weird. It’s how we’re born. What’s weird is the way social conditioning makes us seem more similar than we really are. - Tyler Cowan11. Make Uphill Decisions: If you’re split between two decisions and don’t know which one to choose, default to the one that’s more difficult in the short-term. - Naval Ravikant12. Nullius in Verba: This is Royal Society’s old motto. It translates to “take no one’s word for it.” Be curious. Figure things out for yourself. Move through the world with a posture of productive skepticism and when it comes to truth, do your own investigations.13. Otium: The Latin word for leisure. But not the lazy kind of leisure where you sit around and do nothing. It’s the Ancient Roman kind where you play sports, contemplate life, and consume great art. This is how I aspire to spend my weekends.14. Luxury Beliefs: People have always signaled status by buying expensive things. But now they do it by holding certain beliefs, which confer status on upper class people while inflicting costs on lower class ones. - Rob Henderson15. Pre-Headline vs. Post-Headline People: Pre-headline people know about things before they make it into the news. Post-headline people only know about things after they’re printed and become well-known. Pre-headline people have the edge in life. - Balaji16. Robustness Principle: A design guideline for software developers that applies to many things in life: “Be conservative in what you do, but liberal in what you accept from others.”17. Serving vs. Served: Self-sacrificial service is the great paradox of life. The more you give, with no expectation of reciprocity, the happier you will be. In a world of utility-maximizing selfishness, this is counterintuitive and counter cultural. - Brent Beshore18. Yuck and Yawn: If you want to start a profitable business, look for opportunities that are smelly (like trash collection) or ones that are boring (like niche materials). Avoid sexy industries like the ones prestige-thirsty MBA students tend to pursue. - AUM Energy19. The Story of Damocles: A man once got to be king for a day and sit on the king’s luxurious throne. From afar, the throne looked peaceful. But to his surprise, a sword hung above it. Immediately, Damocles learned that with great power comes great fear, anxiety, and danger.20. Planck’s Principle: Scientific knowledge doesn’t change because scientists change their mind. Rather, it changes as old scientists die, new ones are born, and a new generation of scientists gains influence.21. The Stupid Test: Peter Thiel once said: “As an investor, you want to find things that are so stupid that people are embarrassed to invest in them.“ Often, the best opportunities are the simplest. Unfortunately, people miss them because they think good ideas must be complex.Last Quarter App Downloads for Meta: $FB“Instagram had its BEST quarter for downloads since at least 2014, and Q4 2021 was the FIRST time Meta had the top app since Q4 2019.”Inspirational Thread:🌊 Canadian Companies To Peruse 🌊Headversity - Calgary based company raises $12.5m CAD Series A - Headversity is a workplace mental health and resilience platform helping workers through mental health issues. 🔮Best Links of The Week🔮Is $13b for Opensea crazy?

Proszę się opatulić i wziąć kubek z ciepłym napojem, bo wjeżdża dziś bardzo poruszający odcinek. Poruszający do tego stopnia, że to prowadząca ma łzy w oczach... chociaż podczas rozmowy niejednokrotnie da się też usłyszeć śmiech.  W historii mojej dzisiejszej rozmówczyni jest wiele szkół i rozdziałów edukacyjnych, ale dla mnie najważniejsze są te rozdziały, które składają się dziś na szkołę życia. A na ich stronach ludzie, którzy niejednokrotnie pomagali lub przeszkadzali na drodze Agi. Aga Alończyk. Powiedzieć, że zajmuje się ceramiką, to jak zwrócić uwagę wyłącznie na wisienkę na torcie, która owszem jest interesująca, ale nie bardziej niż cała historia powstawania tortu, aby tę wisienkę móc na nim położyć. Zaczęło się od tego, że Aga miała zostać pianistką, a dziś fortepian kojarzy się jej z opresją. Później chciała zostać kucharką. Jednak mimo wielkiej pasji do gotowania, kucharką nie została, bo, jak pisze, “nie dała sobie rady z presją ze strony rodziny”. Studiowała filologię romańską, ale nie wspomina tego czasu zbyt ciepło. Była nauczycielką, a po godzinach fryzjerką, co często, niestety, nie mieściło się w głowach rodziców jej uczniów. Przez dekadę pracowała w korpo. Dziś mieszka w Belgii i mówi: „Kiedyś musiałam mieć plan na wszystko i wszystko pod kontrolą. Teraz wszystko jest chaosem, nie wiem co dalej i nie muszę. Jest dobrze! A jak będzie źle to zrobię coś z tym, bo w końcu dotarło do mnie, że umiem.” I właśnie o tym "umieniu" rozmawiamy w Pracowni. Bierzemy na tapetę wymagania dotyczące bycia "najlepszą we wszystkim" i "wygrywanie złotych kalesonów". Mocujemy się z oceną społeczną, porównywaniem się z innymi i definiowaniem siebie przez pryzmat otaczających nas ludzi. Aga opowiada o spotkaniu z Sycylijką, która odkryła przed nią ceramikę, ucieczkach od szufladkowania i córce, która chce zostać sekretarką. I, z całym szacunkiem, ale nie masz pojęcia, jak ważną, według córki Agi, funkcję spełniają sekretarki.  Polecenia Agi do Kanonu Lektur Pracowni Dziewczyn: "Genialna przyjaciółka” - Elena Ferrante “Rozmowy z przyjaciółmi”, “Normalni ludzie” - Sally Rooney “Powrót z Bambuko” - Katarzyna Nosowska “Bezmatek” - Mira Marcinów “Co robić przed końcem świata”, “Ucieczka od bezradności” - Tomasz Stawiszyński “Bruksela.
