Meta is the largest social media company in the world, boasting close to 4 billion monthly active users worldwide. The firm's "Family of Apps," its core business, consists of Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp. End users can leverage these applications for a variety of different purposes, from keeping in touch with friends to following celebrities and running digital businesses for free. Meta packages customer data, gleaned from its application ecosystem and sells ads to digital advertisers. While the firm has been investing heavily in its Reality Labs business, it remains a very small part of Meta's overall sales.

A Gallup survey reveals 71% of Americans oppose building AI data centers in their local areas, citing concerns about electricity use, water consumption, pollution, and noise. The opposition is stronger than resistance to nuclear power plants (53%). This backlash comes as Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft accelerate AI infrastructure spending, with data center construction surging 228% since ChatGPT's launch. Goldman Sachs projects global data center electricity demand could rise 220% by 2030, intensifying the tension between AI expansion and environmental concerns.

Nvidia is scheduled to report Q1 fiscal 2027 earnings on May 20, with prediction markets showing a 90% probability of beating expectations. While hyperscalers are accelerating AI infrastructure spending and memory stocks are surging, the author cautions against making ill-timed large bets before earnings, recommending dollar-cost averaging instead since the stock is already trading near all-time highs.

Meta Platforms is presented as an undervalued investment opportunity despite strong 30%+ revenue growth. The article argues that while the market is concerned about Meta's high capital expenditures on AI and Reality Labs, the company's AI improvements to its advertising business are already delivering results. With a forward P/E ratio of less than 19 compared to the S&P 500's 21.9, Meta trades cheaper than the broader market despite superior growth. The author suggests Meta's upcoming AI superintelligence and smart glasses products could unlock additional value not yet priced into the stock.

While Nvidia continues strong growth with 73% year-over-year revenue increase and guidance for 75% growth, the article argues its premium valuation (P/E of 46) leaves little room for error. Major customers like Google, Meta, and OpenAI are developing custom AI chips through Broadcom, reducing dependence on Nvidia. Amazon's custom chip business is highlighted as a better investment opportunity, growing at triple-digit pace with a $50 billion potential annual run rate, while trading at a more reasonable 32x earnings multiple.

CoreWeave's stock fell over 10% in May after the company issued lighter-than-expected Q2 guidance and announced higher capital expenditures, despite revenue more than doubling year-over-year. While the company has a strong $100 billion backlog and partnerships with Meta, Nvidia, and Anthropic, concerns about rising losses, heavy debt, and margin pressure are weighing on investor sentiment. The article suggests high-risk investors may find value in the dip, while conservative investors should wait on the sidelines.

AMD and Intel are both benefiting from the AI supercycle, but AMD emerges as the more dependable 10-year investment. AMD posted accelerating revenue growth of 38% YoY with data center revenue up 57%, strong customer commitments, and robust free cash flow. Intel shows turnaround signs with a 22% data center growth, but its foundry business is unprofitable and still needs to prove its manufacturing strategy can work at scale. AMD's growth is visible today while Intel's valuation already prices in future success.

Commodity prices, particularly industrial and precious metals, have reached record highs driven by AI data center buildouts and electrification trends rather than energy disruptions. Copper, silver, and lithium are surging due to unprecedented demand from AI infrastructure, with supply constrained by geopolitical factors and structural underinvestment. This could create broader inflationary pressures across manufacturing and construction sectors.

Berkshire Hathaway has accumulated a record $380.2 billion cash position while remaining a net seller of stocks for 14 consecutive quarters. Under new CEO Greg Abel, the company is positioning itself to capitalize on AI infrastructure buildout through data centers, but on strict terms requiring hyperscalers like Meta, Google, and Microsoft to bear full costs of new generation and transmission infrastructure rather than socializing expenses across ordinary utility customers.

Brazil-based Investidor Profissional Gestao de Recursos initiated an $11.34 million position in MercadoLibre by purchasing 5,881 shares in Q1 2026, despite the stock declining 37% over the past year. The fund's investment appears to be a contrarian bet that the selloff reflects investor impatience rather than business deterioration, as MercadoLibre continues strong growth with 49% revenue increase and 50% payment volume surge, while intentionally sacrificing margins to expand market share across Latin America's e-commerce and fintech sectors.

The article recommends three stocks as buying opportunities despite recent market rallies: Nvidia, positioned to benefit from continued AI infrastructure investment with potential 50% upside; Micron Technology, thriving from memory chip shortages with explosive revenue growth; and Meta Platforms, trading cheaply at 19x forward earnings with strong ad business growth driven by AI improvements.
