META (Facebook)

seit Oktober 2021 kennen wir die neue Konzernstrategie, Zuckerberg hatte die neue Dachgesellschaft META vorgestellt. Angeblich soll Zuckerberg sich von Science-Fiction-Literatur wie "Ready Player One" inspiriert haben lassen.

in der realen Welt sieht es anders aus: die letzten beiden Quartale sinken die Profite und

Meta will weniger Mitarbeiter einstellen. Die anderen wollen Stellen abbauen oder haben einen Einstellungsstopp verkündet.

Der Spass scheint langsam anzufangen....

Meta’s advertising business has been badly battered by a change in privacy settings to Apple Inc.’s AAPL, +1.62% mobile operating system, limiting the amount of user data that can be collected by Facebook and Instagram. Consequently, Meta has posted two straight quarterly profit declines for the first time in a decade. Meta lost some $230 billion in market value — its worst one-day hit ever — after it posted desultory results in February.
