Meta Shares See $31 Million Spend Before AI Funding Jitters Arrive
Meta stock plunged 5.5% to $593 Friday after reports it may raise tens of billions via a stock sale to fund soaring AI infrastructure costs, despite delayed filings showing Waystone, Eaton, and Fidelis held $31.4 million in Meta at year-end; analysts’ average target is $840.60, but investors are wary of dilution and rising capex, as Meta lifts 2026 spending outlook to up to $145 billion.
