Citi Lifts AMD Target on Meta Muse Adoption, but Cash Flow Concerns Linger for Meta

Citi has raised its price target for AMD, projecting a 25% upside, citing strong demand for its chips driven by Meta’s new Muse AI agent. While Meta’s stock has surged 27% in the past month on the back of Muse’s rapid adoption, analysts note that the app has not yet generated reported revenue. Meta’s advertising business remains the primary funder for its massive AI infrastructure spending, with free cash flow dropping to just $784 million in Q2 2026.

Meta, United Airlines, and Nvidia Lead Premarket Volatility Amid AI Subscription Controversy

CNBC reports that Meta Platforms, United Airlines, and Nvidia are among the stocks experiencing the most significant price movements in premarket trading on September 28, 2026. The report highlights these three companies as the primary drivers of early market activity, though it does not specify the direction or magnitude of the moves. This follows recent developments where Meta’s stock reached record highs near a $2 trillion valuation, driven by the launch of Gen 3 Ray-Ban smart glasses and anticipation for the Project Phoenix mixed-reality headset. However, Meta’s recent release of the Muse AI agent, which automates subscription cancellations, has sparked controversy among e-commerce and insurance platforms that have blocked its access, raising privacy concerns despite Meta’s emphasis on new security features.

Institutional Investors Reclaim Market Leadership Amid Rising Yields and AI Focus

Institutional investors have resumed driving U.S. stock market gains, offsetting a retreat by retail traders. While rising Treasury yields have pressured broad market indices, large investors are selectively buying artificial intelligence (AI) stocks, particularly Meta Platforms, which surged 13% following the launch of its Muse AI agent. This divergence highlights a shift toward selective risk-taking by big money despite macroeconomic volatility.

Goldman Sachs Warning Triggers $9 Billion Wealth Drop for Zuckerberg as Meta Stock Reverses

Mark Zuckerberg lost approximately $8.9 billion in a single day as Meta shares fell roughly 4%, reversing a recent surge. The decline followed a Goldman Sachs report questioning whether AI companies can generate sufficient revenue to justify massive capital spending. Zuckerberg’s net worth dropped to $257.5 billion, moving him from fourth to sixth on the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires list. This loss was the largest single-day drop among billionaires, far exceeding the $1.6 billion decline of Larry Ellison. The reversal occurred after Meta shares had risen 36% in September following the launch of its AI assistant, Muse.

Meta's Muse AI Agent Dominates App Charts, Driving Stock to Record Highs

Meta Platforms' stock surged to record highs, nearing a $2 trillion valuation, driven by the rapid adoption of its new Muse AI agent. The app, launched on September 8, has accumulated over 2.5 million downloads in 13 days, surpassing competitors like ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. This success validates the market for consumer AI agents, prompting Wells Fargo to raise its price target to $796. However, the rollout has sparked friction with e-commerce platforms; Amazon blocked Muse for security reasons, while Shopify partnered with it. The momentum coincides with Meta Connect 2026, where new hardware like Gen 3 Ray-Ban glasses and the Project Phoenix headset are expected to further boost investor confidence.

S&P 500 Holds Near Records as AI Boom Offsets Bond Rout and Oil Spike

U.S. equities posted weekly gains despite a bond market rout and oil prices exceeding $100, driven by a resurgence in mega-cap AI stocks. The S&P 500 rose 1.2% for the week to 7,741.83, while the Nasdaq gained 2.1% to 27,068.72. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 0.3% to 51,828.59. This resilience occurred despite the 10-year Treasury yield hitting its highest level since June 2007 and the 30-year yield reaching a peak not seen since 2004. The Federal Reserve’s recent rate hike and hawkish signals from officials like Michael Barr and Anna Paulson have increased the probability of a further October hike to 64%. Meanwhile, oil prices fell on Friday after reports of potential U.S.-Iran diplomatic progress regarding the Strait of Hormuz, easing inflation fears slightly.

Muse Could Make Meta a Major Consumer AI Hit, Analysts Say

Meta's Muse AI assistant is topping the US App Store’s free charts, with JPMorgan predicting Muse could become the most widely used consumer AI app since ChatGPT and could start showing AI returns beyond Meta’s ads. Bank of America also flags Muse’s strong early reception as a positive signal for Meta’s AI strategy. Evercore’s Mark Mahaney notes monetization paths (ads, subscriptions, revenue share) and estimates that even 1% of Meta’s 3.6 billion users paying $20/month could yield about $8B in revenue; JPMorgan maintains an Overweight rating with a $820 target, while BofA keeps a Buy rating with an $810 target.

Analysts like Evercore ISI’s Mark Mahaney say Muse could unlock a major new revenue stream for Meta—driving engagement and monetization across ads, subscriptions, and transaction revenue as the company leans into enterprise AI opportunities.
