Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 262

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) was mentioned as a potential rebound play after a sharp pullback. Jim Cramer acknowledged the risks tied to a possible recession and rising infrastructure costs but argued that much of the downside was already priced in, saying:

“Meta, 27 points, it’s up. Now, but then you look at it, you say, oh, wait a second. Meta was at 740, now it’s 540. Let’s keep buying Meta. And that’s what’s going on in people’s heads. Down too much from the high. [talking about advertising going down in case of a recession] So I would say at 500, that has the advertising going down. This is priced in. Costs of building; priced, because that cost comes down.”

Jim Cramer discussed Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) during a segment where he went over all of the Magnificent 7 stocks very recently. Here’s what he said:

“Meta Platforms looks like a relative winner from tariffs because they sell advertising so there’s little direct impact. Now that could change if Meta becomes the target of European tariff retaliation – always a possibility – or if the trade war throws our economy in a recession too, another real possibility.  But with Meta stock now down more than 30% from its highs two months ago I think many of these negatives including a potentially soft advertising market are already baked in. Plus, Meta is not getting enough credit for its AI growth opportunities. Stock sells for just under 20 times this year’s earnings estimate. It sells below the average stock? Not much of a discount to historical valuation but it’s one of the highest quality stories in the formerly Magnificent 7.”

META is a stock Jim Cramer recently discussed. While we acknowledge the potential of META as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame. There is an AI stock that went up since the beginning of 2025, while popular AI stocks lost around 25%. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than META but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about this cheapest AI stock.
