Meta owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger — a family of apps used by billions, monetized almost entirely through advertising powered by AI-driven targeting and recommendations.
The key tension is between the highly profitable advertising core and large, speculative spending on the Reality Labs metaverse and AI infrastructure.

| Peter Lynch | Growth vs. price (PEG) | Does ad growth justify the multiple net of metaverse losses? |
| Howard Marks | Capital discipline | Is heavy AI and Reality Labs spending disciplined or a value drain? |
| Benjamin Graham | Margin of safety | What protection do I have if ad cyclicality or regulation hits? |
