Meta faces skepticism on AI spend as expenses surge 55% with unclear monetization path
Meta's core advertising grows 28% but expenses jumped 55% with limited clarity on new revenue lines from AI. Operating cash flow (~$200B) may not cover projected $230-260B capex next year, likely requiring capital raise or partnerships that overhang the stock.

Meta's AI spending exceeds core business funding capacity; capital raise likely
Meta's 2025 capex guidance of $230-260B exceeds ~$200B operating cash flow, creating a funding gap that likely requires equity raise or partnerships; advertising growth (mid-20% from AI) is strong but insufficient to cover AI investment pace.
