Big tech stocks are dominating the market.
Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) continues to push to new highs this year. The social networking giant has cemented itself as an important market leader once again, blasting off its post-election lows to help power the market higher in 2017.
And it’s just getting started…
Facebook has already rewarded patient investors. Now we’re seeing plenty of room for this stock to run much higher over the next several months – and beyond.
Sure, Facebook has more than its fair share of detractors these days. The naysayers claim kids aren’t using the platform anymore. Its ads aren’t as effective as they could be. And the stock is just too damn expensive at current prices.
We think that’s a load of bunk.
There’s no way around it: Facebook is taking over the world. Here’s how:

With 85% of the sites users coming from outside the U.S. and Canada, Facebook has entered bidding war for the rights to broadcast cricket to their second largest market: India. With the craze we’re seeing by other top dogs for payTV (Google, AT&T, etc.) this move could be huge for Facebook.
Which leads us to our next point…
2. Facebook is never going to be a one-trick pony
Facebook has grabbed almost every eyeball on the Internet already – 72% of all internet users in the U.S. alone. And the site continues to keep users coming back day after day with engaging new applications.
Don’t think for one second that Facebook isn’t going to stop pumping out new updates for their user base…
The company just announced that it is adding food delivery services that will work directly and seamlessly through the Facebook mobile app. That means more and more of Facebook’s largest demographic will be adding a few daily visits to Facebook to get their fix.
Facebook isn’t just tackling mundane first-world problems like customized food delivery. It also has its hands in high-tech developments to help get its products in the hands of every person on the planet.
Even virtual reality has become a …read more
