Microsoft Hits New Highs Again! Is Meta Next?

Microsoft has been on an impressive tear lately. After blowing past expectations in its Q1 earnings (which led to a 7.6% surge in a single day), the stock barely paused. No real pullbacks, just steady daily gains, the definition of “slow and steady wins the race.” Meta Platforms got a boost Monday as the tech giant announced plans to introduce paid advertising to WhatsApp, opening up a new revenue stream. It's proving AI monetization to the market. --------- With the stock only one step from its all time high, will Meta be the next to set new high? Will you jump on the wagon of Microsoft?

Not into META or MSFT lol. No money to invest lol. But if you ask me who has a longer runway and greater growth trajectory? My answer would be META. Possibilities are endless with META, whereas MSFT seems to be running into a brick wall. Kinda stagnating business I feel. @BABY SPACEROCK  @LULU ROCKET  @Bubble5728  @Surewin88  
Of all the Mag 7 stocks, I really love META because it is something I can't do without daily. I can't stop texting using WA, can't stop scrolling FB and Insta. META is love ❤️ 
META being the new kid in town? HELL YEAH! I can't do a day without talking to META AI when I'm bored. I consult META AI on my homework woes too. Love WA, insta and FB too. LOVE META TO THE MOON AND BACK. @SPACE ROCKET  @JiaDeName  @BABY SPACEROCK  
Not into Microsoft though I'm definitely a Microsoft fan compared to an Apple fan. Just not into using APPL products.
META is one of my favourite. Can't go a day without WA, FB and Insta. Buffet says to buy the stocks you can't do without, and META is one of them. @LULU ROCKET  @JiaDeName
