2026-10-18 22:48:00
According to CoinMeta, Meta Platforms will announce its third-quarter financial report on October 21st, facing a test of $145 billion in artificial intelligence expenditures. Wall Street expects the company's revenue for the third quarter to be around $63.3 billion, and analysts are paying more attention to its advertising performance and the return on investment in AI. Options traders anticipate that Meta's stock price may fluctuate by 6% after the financial report is released, which is equivalent to a fluctuation of about $42 from the closing price of $709.33 on Friday. Meta's capital expenditures are expected to reach $130 billion to $145 billion in 2026, covering AI infrastructure and existing businesses. Although Meta achieved revenue of $60.8 billion in the second quarter, a year-on-year increase of 28%, investors are still concerned about whether it can offset the rising infrastructure and personnel costs through higher advertising revenue and operating profits.
