The total investment in Meta amounted to approximately $28.1 million, based on the closing price of $653.69. This move aligns with Meta’s recent launch of Muse, an AI agent designed to manage digital tasks autonomously. Despite internal tests revealing security and reliability issues, the AI agent is central to CEO **Mark Zuckerberg’s** vision for personal superintelligence. Meta’s stock has been on an upward trajectory, partly due to a recent settlement in a major lawsuit, which removed a short-term overhang on the stock. However, experts warn that litigation risks are not entirely resolved. **Read Also: Apple, Meta, AeroVironment, SUNation Energy and American Eagle Outfitters: Why These 5 Stocks Are on Investors' Radars Today** ## **The Alphabet Trade** In contrast, Ark Invest reduced its position in **Alphabet** by selling 72,803 Class A shares from **ARKK** and 11,589 Class A shares from **ARK Next Generation Internet ETF** (BATS:ARKW). The total value of shares sold was approximately $27.9 million, based on GOOGL closing price of $330.65. Alphabet’s stock has faced pressure due to investor concerns over AI spending and cloud growth. Despite these challenges, analysts maintain a positive outlook on Alphabet’s potential to benefit from AI-driven growth across its advertising and cloud segments. ## **Other Key Trades** - **Beam Therapeutics Inc.** (BEAM): **ARKG** bought 73,237 shares, and **ARKK** acquired 197,922 shares. - **CRISPR Therapeutics AG** (CRSP): **ARKG** purchased 10,761 shares, and **ARKK** added 36,352 shares. - **INTELLIA THERAPEUTICS, INC.** (NTLA): **ARKG** bought 15,925 shares, and **ARKK** acquired 188,281 shares. - **Tempus AI, Inc.** (TEM): ARKK sold 22,767 shares. **Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings** indicate Meta stock has a Momentum score in the 17th percentile and Growth score in the 78th percentile. **See More: Top Growth Stocks** *Photo Courtesy: PJ McDonnell on Shutterstock.com* ***Disclaimer*:** *This content was partially produced with the help of AI tools and was reviewed and published by Benzinga editors*. ### Related Stocks - [CRSP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CRSP.US.md) - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [NTLA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NTLA.US.md) - [META.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/META.US.md) - [TEM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TEM.US.md) - [BEAM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BEAM.US.md) - [GOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [FBL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBL.US.md) - [METU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/METU.US.md) - [GOOW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOW.US.md) - [METD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/METD.US.md) - [TEMT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TEMT.US.md) - [METW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/METW.US.md) - [GGLL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLL.US.md) - [GGLS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLS.US.md) - [GOOY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOY.US.md) - [GOU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOU.US.md) - [GOOX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOX.US.md) - [GOOP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOP.US.md) - [MAGX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MAGX.US.md) - [FBY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBY.US.md) - [FBYY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBYY.US.md) - [ARKK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKK.US.md) - [ARKW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKW.US.md) - [AAPL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPL.US.md) - [AVAV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AVAV.US.md) - [SUNE.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SUNE.US.md) - [AEO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AEO.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [20:12 ETFunction Now Connects to Meta's Muse, Allowing Members to Bring Their Personal Health Data to the New AI Agent](https://longbridge.com/en/news/298377828.md) - [Nicholas Company Inc.
