Anmuth even mentioned in his note regarding Apple’s recent ad tracking rules and how it may affect Facebook. He said:
“FB’s ad platform consisting of more than 10M advertisers is extremely resilient & although some marketers may want to shift spend away or reduce bid levels at certain times, we believe there are plenty of others who are eager to capture that inventory.”
The tech giants stock has been hurt by the recent development involving the congressional hearing and the impact their platform is having on teenagers. Despite the ongoing development the analyst does not believe there to be much downside from this news cycle. The note said:
“FB has managed through multiple periods of negativity in the past & shares are down 13% from their recent highs (vs. -3% for the SPX). Additionally, FB continues to call for a set of more standard rules for the internet from Congress, though we do not expect that near-term.”
