Zuck Misses Big: Facebook Reports First Ever Drop in Revenue
Breitbart ^ | 07.29.2022 | Lucas Nolan

Posted on 07/29/2022 10:24:36 AM PDT by Macky Cracklins

Facebook has reported its first-ever revenue miss and continued poor earnings, with forecasts expecting a second straight quarter of declining sales. The social media Masters of the Universe missed analysts’ estimates for both revenue and earnings.

CNBC reports that Facebook (now known as Meta) recently reported a worse-than-expected drop in revenue, missed on earnings, and gave a weak forecast for the future. Further poor performance could see a second consecutive decline in year-over-year sales. Facebook shares fell by 5.65 percent in intraday trading on Thursday.

Just employ the Biden Administration tactics and say Facebook has had an increase in revenue. Redefine what a drop in revenue means. LOL

Who is on fake book other than people like me that are obligated to because their 80 year old mother uses it. Interesting enough, I never post memes or political things just random drunken misadventures in random countries or the desert yet my “political leaning” is stated as extreme conservative or some such…how would they gather that? I am even registered independent.

I hope it’s the first of many revenue drops. FB is just about the worst thing that ever happened to the American culture.

It’s bad enough that stupid people outnumber smart people, but then FB tips the scale even farther by reinforcing groupthink and censoring independent thought.

What's interesting is they are losing their base.

2009 was college students only, now it's only old folks. These people are probably not interested in metaverse, augmented reality, virtual reality. I read somewhere fb is going to change the interface again, which will drive more of its base away, and likely not attract new users, younger users.

I was watching the pimps on CNBC a little bit at lunch. They are simply cheerleaders for Wall Street and the Biden Administration. It was so sickening that I had to turn them off. They lack all critical thinking skills. Company after company are missing top and bottom line revenues. When Meta and Alphabet miss, what does that tell you? How do they make their money? Who are their customers? Why are there customers spending less? What is the economic impact of lower spending? What does all that mean?

To CNBC it means everything is great and people should buy now. Only morons follow the commission pimps on CNBC.

Their users are not customers. Their users (and users' data) are the product.

Their biggest customers are advertisers.

When the economy sucks, ad revenues fall.

Isn’t that good? Haven’t we been told this is fine?

You are more qualified than any talking head on CNBC. It’s ad revenues from businesses of all sizes. If they are not spending money on ads, then they are doing something else, and it ain’t growing.

Might be more accurate to state that last quarter was Facebook’s last ever rise in revenue. :)
