We recently published Jim Cramer Discusses These 12 Stocks & Says Trump’s Winning. Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed.
Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is the largest social media company in the world. Its shares have performed well in 2025 as they have gained 20% year-to-date. Cramer has discussed the stock several times in his morning show this year. He has attributed Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META)’s share price gains to the strong performance of the firm’s advertising business and cost-cutting initiatives. At the same time, the CNBC TV host has sharply criticized Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META)’s AI platform and gone as far as to suggest that the firm’s AI platform is among the worst offered by big tech and OpenAI. This time around, he commented on Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META)’s valuation:
“Meta still has a low multiple. Meta’s recreating and. . .remediating the entire advertising business. Along with Amazon and along with YouTube. And Meta’s the leader.”
Earlier, Cramer discussed Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META)’s share price performance in detail:
“How did . . .Meta manage to triumph, especially when all their stocks had hit some pretty hideous darn levels early in the quarter?
… Finally, there’s the toughest one to explain, Meta. This stock started the year at $630 and then got caught up in the rise and fall of everything growth, sinking from $740 in February down to $480 in April. A week later, and only a few points from the bottom, Meta reported a magnificent quarter. They crushed the estimates. On the conference call, we discovered you no longer needed to advertise anywhere else, save Amazon and Google. They didn’t mention that, but that’s me. Now, on that call, you realize that when you go with Meta, your ad will be shown only to the people who want to buy your product, no other medium… and that’s why the stock finished the first half at $738 yesterday. This machine really works… So, what did we discover?… Meta is a ridiculously cheap stock that should never have traded down to $480.”
While we acknowledge the potential of META as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an extremely cheap AI stock that is also a major beneficiary of Trump tariffs and onshoring, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
