Bill Ackman reveals stake in Meta, says it has ‘deeply discounted valuation’

Pershing Square invested about $2 billion in Meta, viewing AI as a key growth driver, while exiting Hilton to concentrate on tech assets.

  • On Feb 11, Bill Ackman told clients his hedge fund bought Meta shares late last year, investing roughly 10% of its capital, about $2 billion.
  • Ackman had signalled interest in big tech months ago and previously invested in Amazon and Alphabet , while investors have worried that Meta's AI spending is high, weighing on the stock.
  • Since the inception of the Meta bet in November, Meta Platforms' share price rose 11% in 2025 and 3% in 2026 through Feb 9, while the broader stock slipped 7.4%.
  • The firm exited Hilton Worldwide Holdings to redeploy capital, reflecting Ackman's focus on a dozen concentrated bets and signaling a portfolio shift toward big tech.
  • In its presentation, the firm added 'We believe Meta's current share price underappreciates the company's long-term' and argued AI digital assistants and wearables can boost ads and recommendations.
