Meta 正在德克薩斯州建設一個 15 億美元的數據中心
Meta is investing $1.5 billion in a new data center in Texas, following its earlier announcement of a $50 billion project in Louisiana. The company plans to allocate up to $72 billion this year for capital projects, primarily focused on AI. CEO Mark Zuckerberg emphasizes the importance of AI technology for the future. Wall Street analysts have a Strong Buy consensus on META stock, with an average price target of $878.64, indicating a potential upside of 22.5%.
Earlier this year, the company announced a huge data center in Louisiana called "Hyperion," which former President Donald Trump said could cost up to $50 billion. Notably, Meta raised $29 billion for that project from Pacific Investment Management and Blue Owl Capital. The company is also working on other gigawatt-sized sites, including one in Ohio named "Prometheus."
Unsurprisingly, CEO Mark Zuckerberg believes that AI assistants will become "one of the most important and valuable services" ever created. Therefore, Meta plans to spend up to $72 billion this year on capital projects, much of it for AI. While some experts worry that companies may be building too much, Zuckerberg told Bloomberg in 2024 that it's better to risk overspending than miss out on what he sees as the most important technology for the next 10 to 15 years.
Is Meta a Buy, Sell, or Hold?
