I honestly don’t get the valuation gap on $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ anymore.
Look at the numbers: 3-year revenue CAGR estimates are at 20.7%, higher than $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ at 13.9%, $Microsoft(MSFT)$ at 17.2%, and $Alphabet(GOOG)$ at 19.1%. Yet META is trading at just around 18x forward earnings, the lowest multiple among the hyperscalers.
And unlike its peers, Meta is already showing real ROI from its AI capex within its core ads business, through higher conversion rates and stronger engagement. That’s the part the market keeps underpricing.
If Meta ends up with excess compute capacity, it can monetize it directly into demand at strong margins. That optionality alone is being ignored.
At some point, this discount stops making sense. A few months from now, people will probably look back and call $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ the obvious trade.
