She said the company’s profits were due in part to its digital advertising growth, Reels and cost-cutting measures. The stock hit a new 52-week high Thursday, trading at levels not seen since February 2022. Wells Fargo also upgraded the stock to overweight from equal weight. Meta is currently held in Cramer’s Charitable Trust Portfolio.
