Meta Stock Soars with Record Gains and Zuckerberg Climbs Rich Lists

Facebook - Mark Zuckerberg - Meta

Discover the monumental surge in Meta's share price and Zuckerberg's rise to the fifth richest person in the world in this exhilarating summary of the latest India trending news.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, made headlines as its shares skyrocketed by 17% following the announcement of its first-ever cash dividend. Investors cheered as Meta tripled its profits in the fourth quarter, leading to a significant surge in market value.

The tech giant pleased shareholders with a $50 billion buyback plan and solid earnings, further boosting its stock by 20% in a single day. Meta's sharp rise contrasted with Apple and Tesla's struggles, as they witnessed a decline in their shares.

While Meta's stock market value soared by over $200 billion, Mark Zuckerberg ascended to the fifth position in the global rich list. The surge in Meta's share price added $140 billion to its market cap, reaching a staggering $1.17 trillion.

In a historic one-day jump, Meta Platforms increased its market value by $196 billion, setting a Wall Street record. This remarkable feat marked the largest one-time gain in market cap in history, illustrating the company's unparalleled success.
