Meta Platforms (META) shares plunged 17% in March 2026—the worst monthly drop since October 2022—closing at $536.38 on March 30, driven by a landmark social media addiction lawsuit loss with Google and fresh regulatory scrutiny over youth safety rules in Australia and elsewhere, fueling oversold conditions. Robust fundamentals underpin trader resilience, including 30% profit margins, $81 billion in cash, and trailing EPS of $23.49, with AI investments and ad revenue growth offsetting metaverse drags. Consensus eyes Q1 earnings on April 29 (EPS estimate $6.61, revenue $53.5-56.5 billion) as the pivotal catalyst, alongside analyst price targets averaging $850-$860, potentially lifting the stock within its $480-$796 52-week range.
