After Q1 Earnings, I Would Rather Invest In Meta Than Alphabet
Published: May 01, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
I think Meta Platforms, Inc.'s advertising business is more innovative than Alphabet's, leveraging diverse ad formats across evolving platforms, while Alphabet relies heavily on its Search monopoly (55% of revenue).
