Meta Platforms shares fell 5% in early trading on Thursday, as investors balanced fast-growing AI agent adoption against surging infrastructure costs. The pullback follows a 5% gain for the stock over the year through Wednesday's close. If the losses hold, the social media giant is set to shed $85 billion in market value.
