Meta’s share price moved lower earlier today after reports suggested the company is preparing another major shake-up inside its artificial intelligence division. The stock briefly dipped even though it later traded around $669.39, about 1.19% higher than yesterday’s close.
Meta Stock News Today
Early trading saw heavy selling as investors reacted to claims that Meta is planning its fourth reorganisation of its AI operations in the last six months. Such frequent changes have created doubts about whether Meta has a clear and stable long-term AI strategy — a segment that has significantly boosted its share performance this year.
Despite Meta posting strong financial numbers over recent quarters, today’s update triggered uncertainty, pushing the stock lower before recovering slightly during the day.
key moment here for $META. If meta closes and consolidates below its 200 day that's a clear sell. If like last time it jumped above its 200 day and consolidates there, then it's time to buy back in. Pivotal moment here. pic.twitter.com/ZHEwBIdnuL

Why Meta Stock Is Down
The latest drop is mainly linked to worries about Meta’s internal AI restructuring. Analysts say repeated reshuffles could signal internal challenges or shifting priorities, which makes investors cautious.
There is also some nervousness ahead of Meta’s next earnings announcement, where the company may reveal how its AI investments and organisational changes are impacting future growth. Weak economic signals, such as soft employment data, are also weighing on overall market sentiment.
Metaverse Segment and Future Plans
Meta continues to highlight the Metaverse as part of its long-term vision, but the company is now redirecting more resources toward AI and smart glasses development. This shift has drawn mixed reactions from investors — some believe AI-focused products will be more profitable, while others worry that reducing the Metaverse budget could slow progress in a key future business area.
