From Nasdaq:

Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) saw a 1% stock increase after being included in Bank of America’s list of top stock picks for March. The social media company was the sole social media representative among 20 selected companies, solidifying its role as a go-to investment choice with strong growth potential.

While Meta’s sites experienced minor outages, the overall operation returned to normal, avoiding widespread disruptions seen the previous day. This came as a relief to users and shareholders, with hopes that such incidents will be rare moving forward.
