Market Sentiment Analysis
Equity futures are lower this morning following yesterday’s rally, sparked by comments from US President Trump that the US and Iran engaged in productive talks over the weekend.

Oil prices resumed their advance, and uncertainty remains, with volatility expected to remain elevated this week. Today’s PMI data and GameStop earnings are also expected today.
Meta Platforms Fundamental Analysis

So, why am I bullish on META following its 21%+ correction?
I remain bullish on Meta Platforms due to its leadership in digital advertising, driven by AI-driven targeting improvements, higher conversion rates, and higher price-per-click. It helps META fund its superintelligence ambitions and metaverse development, while open-source advancements in Llama reasoning models further boost its competitive edge. Workforce optimization via AI and a 20%+ workforce reduction to offset rising CAPEX is another bullish catalyst.
