# Meta Stock Near Record Highs: AI Investments & Ad Growth Fuel Q2 Earnings Expectations
In this episode, we analyze Meta Platforms as it trades near $700, maintaining proximity to its late-June record of $747.90. The stock has surged approximately 30% over three months, significantly outperforming the broader market. We explore how heightened trading volume reflects strong investor sentiment ahead of Q2 earnings, with options markets anticipating a 5% post-earnings move.
Discover why analysts are projecting Q2 revenue of up to $44.84 billion and EPS around $5.86—representing year-over-year growth of 15% and 12% respectively. We examine how Meta's aggressive AI investments, including its new superintelligence research group, are transforming its business outlook despite planned capital expenditures of $64-72 billion pressuring margins.
With nearly 90% of analysts rating Meta as a buy and price targets reaching as high as $850, we evaluate both the bullish case built on digital advertising dominance and AI leadership, alongside concerns about Reality Labs' expected $5 billion quarterly loss and regulatory headwinds. Join us for comprehensive insights into Meta's financial position before what could be another record-breaking earnings report.
