Another day, another record for META, the stock that can’t go down. RSI at 84. Let’s have a look at what might have started the rally.

How it started
How it started…the insane 20-day run basically started when Zuck took a peek…Seems like Miss Market respects a man who looks where he wants. Zuck is now both 20 years younger and 20 billion dollars richer than Jeff. So…maybe baby…
Or is it a Trump trade…?
It hasn’t had a down day since before the inauguration. Best ROI donation ever….
“Meta has donated $1 million to Donald Trump’s inaugural fund in the latest sign CEO Mark Zuckerberg is trying to repair his relationship with the president-elect”
….or this….?
Was the Joe Rogan interview the catalyst? When Zuck branded his new “molly dealer from Chechnya” look…
Or maybe this…?
Front-kick firing fighter king. This was absolutely savage.
“I’ve decided to raise the bar on performance management and move out low performers faster,” (Zuck, Jan 14th).
350% later
Maybe it was this…..? META is up 350% since Zuck posted this picture. Deal with it.
Most magnificent ever
The 20 days is the longest winning streak in history for any Magnificent 7 stock, and one of the greatest runs in history.

The only one
Returns so far in 2025 for the Mag 7 and the respective constituents, as well as for the S&P 500 and the S&P 500 (excluding Mag 7). Only META is ahead of the index this year at +25%.

It can get even better
“Only” +20.5% during these 20 days. The stock has had plenty of 20-day stretches better than that.

Stepping into the buyback octagon
In 2018, Meta returned ~$5 billion to shareholders yearly via share repurchases. Over the past 12 months, Meta has returned $48 billion via share repurchases and $4 billion via dividends, totalling $52 billion.

It’s Meta’s world….
….and we’re all just living in it. Sure, you’ve got YouTube, Twitter, Snapchat, and a handful of other social/social-adjacent platforms still competing with notable userbases, but TikTok stood next to YouTube as the biggest driver of engagement + cultural influence.

It’s a long game
“Over the long term, we continue to see META mgmt as focused less on the forward 6-12 months (while not losing sight of the need to consistently execute) and more on long-term opportunities (artificial intelligence & Reality Labs)….We continue to see META as well-positioned against several long-term secular growth themes” (Goldman)
