Better Than Truth Social? 3 Social Media Stocks to Buy Instead.

Social media stocks will continue to attract attention because of two critical factors: the 2024 election cycle and this year’s $251 billion market opportunity. I take every forecast with a pinch of salt — however, an estimated 7.30% annual growth rate in total revenue (CAGR 2022-2027) is anticipated, translating into a projected market volume of $190 billion by 2027. To take advantage of the market size, we will explore three social media stocks to buy trading below their 52-week highs with “buy” ratings. Let’s explore! Meta Platforms (META) Source: Chinnapong / Shutterstock.com Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META ) is up 37% in 2024, but analysts remain bullish. 43 analysts support a “Strong Buy” consensus rating, with 39 recommending a “Buy.” The stock’s price target averages approximately $531, which represents an almost 12% upside potential from its list price of around $475. Llama 3-powered Meta AI illustrates how ongoing innovation boosts the upside. Its flexibility allows the clever AI tool to serve users on Meta’s platforms like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, in English in over a dozen countries.

Why Microsoft Stock Is the Pick of the Magnificent Seven Litter

Over the past five years, Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA ) has outperformed the other six “Magnificent Seven” stocks combined, including Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT ) stock, one of this country’s most iconic tech companies. It’s hard to believe that Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has been the software company’s leader for over a decade, taking the job on Feb. 4, 2014 . MSFT stock outperformed three of the seven Mag 7 stocks over the past five years. According to Morningstar.com, Microsoft’s 10-year annualized total return through May 8 is 26.92% .

GOOG Stock Analysis: Unlocking the Future Potential of Alphabet in 2024

Bill Ackman, hedge fund manager, advocates owning a small group of stocks. He’s willing to ride these best ideas for years. One of those best ideas is Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG ). Pershing Square Capital Management owns 9.38 million Class C and 4.35 million Class A shares. Together, Pershing has nearly $2 billion in Alphabet stock. Ackman’s stake in Google’s parent company accounts for more than 18.5% of his firm’s $10.4 billion in assets reported in its Q4 2023 13-F. With the two share classes combined, Alphabet is Pershing’s second-highest holding by percentage, surpassed only by Restaurant Brands International (NYSE: QSR ) at just less than 19%. Except for Lowe’s Companies (NYSE: LOW ), each of Pershing’s seven holdings has a weighting of at least 11%. You could argue that Alphabet stock should be the hedge fund’s largest position. Here’s why. Free Cash Flow and Alphabet Stock Through Q1 2024, Alphabet’s trailing 12-month free cash flow was $69.11 billion , 21.7% of its $318.15 billion in revenue.
