TradingKey – In the first half of 2026, stock prices of tech giants such as Nvidia, Google, and Apple all hit record highs, but Meta ( META) not only fell short of this, but also showed overall weakness, plummeting over 14% cumulatively during the period and underperforming the three major U.S. stock indices. It ranked second from the bottom among the Magnificent Seven, trailing only Microsoft (which fell over 20%). So, will Meta continue its decline in the second half of the year, or will it stage a turnaround to surge to new highs and even challenge the $1,000 mark?
