The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 104.05 points (0.22%) to 47,955.0, according to closing dashboard data. The Nasdaq Composite gained 72.99 points (0.31%) to 23,578.1, while the S&amp;P 500 added 13.28 points (0.19%) to finish at 6,870.40. Small-caps once again lagged, with the Russell 2000 slipping 1.07 points (0.42%) to 251.00.In commodities, crude oil reversed early weakness to close at $60.06, up 0.65%, while gold fell 0.17% to $4,235.90. Bitcoin extended its pullback, dropping 2.94% to $89,459.60. The CBOE Volatility Index slid 2.41% to 15.40, reflecting a modest easing in market anxiety.<h3>Oracle Earnings Preview</h3><h3></h3><h3></h3>Ahead of Oracle’s earnings next week, CFRA equity analyst Angelo Zino told AInvest that investors should focus less on quarterly figures and more on the company’s message around debt financing, customer concentration, and long-term infrastructure commitments.“There’s been so much noise… it’s going to be more about the narrative that the company sells here,” Zino said, noting CFRA expects top-line growth of about 16%, with guidance calling for 17% to 18% and revenue exceeding 20% by fiscal year-end. A major issue for investors is Oracle’s massive bookings pipeline. “They’re going to announce about 500-plus billion in bookings here this quarter. About 300 billion or so of that is tied to OpenAI,” Zino said, highlighting questions about customer concentration and sustainability. The analyst described the bookings trajectory as a “hockey-stick type of inflection,” with the most pronounced ramp occurring beyond fiscal 2027. &quot;If the storyline changes to one where Google is a winner and OpenAI is a loser… that is a risk to Oracle, and Oracle is going to need to find a way to fill that potentially unused, untapped capacity,” Zino said. <h3>Powell’s Future and Expected Rate Cut</h3><video src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yUiJbRIdsus" poster="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Fed Flying Blind_89efcf861764969048300.jpg" data="{&quot;videoUrl&quot;:&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/yUiJbRIdsus&quot;,&quot;coverUrl&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Fed Flying Blind_89efcf861764969048300.jpg&quot;}"></video>The week on Wall Street is also focused on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting (December 9-10). The Federal Reserve will release an updated Summary of Economic Projections, and Chair Jay Powell will hold a press conference on Wednesday afternoon. Investors expect a 25-basis-point interest rate cut but will analyze how the Fed addresses recent softer labor data. Simultaneously, speculation has intensified that Kevin Hassett could replace Powell as Fed Chair, with a potential announcement by President Trump coinciding with the press conference, which would significantly impact the bond market and future rate path.<h3>Netflix–Warner Bros. Deal Reshapes Media Market</h3><h3></h3><h3></h3>Media stocks remained in focus as investors continued reacting to Netflix’s planned acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery’s studio assets, valued at an enterprise value of $82.7 billion. The companies said the tie-up would combine Warner Bros.’ iconic franchises with Netflix’s global streaming platform. “Our mission has always been to entertain the world… Together, we can give audiences more of what they love and help define the next century of storytelling,” Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said in the announcement. Co-CEO Greg Peters emphasized long-term benefits, saying the deal would “improve our offering and accelerate our business for decades to come… creating more value for shareholders.” Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav called the combined entity “two of the greatest storytelling companies in the world.” <h3>Meta Expands Real-Time News Content Through Major Media Partnerships</h3><h3></h3><h3></h3>Meta also drew attention after announcing new partnerships aimed at expanding real-time news availability across Meta AI products. The company is integrating content from CNN, Fox News, Fox Sports, Le Monde Group, People Inc., USA TODAY Network, The Daily Caller, and The Washington Examiner.“Meta AI will now offer a broader range of real-time content… from global, breaking news to entertainment, lifestyle stories, and more,” the company said, adding that it aims to make Meta AI “more responsive, accurate, and balanced.” With investors preparing for next week’s pivotal FOMC meeting, markets appear increasingly sensitive to shifts in monetary expectations, corporate leverage narratives, and the pace of technology-sector disruption. The combination of an approaching rate decision, a closely watched earnings call from Oracle, and major strategic moves from Netflix and Meta sets the stage for a consequential stretch for Wall Street.

Discovery Inc. in a cash-and-stock deal valuing the storied studio at an enterprise value of approximately $82.7 billion, according to a Dec. 5, 2025 <a href="https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-to-acquire-warner-bros" target='__blank'>press release</a> issued by Netflix and WBD. The transaction—one of the largest entertainment mergers on record—would unite Netflix’s dominant global streaming platform with Warner Bros.’ century-old film and television library, including franchises such as Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and the DC Universe.Under the terms disclosed, WBD shareholders will receive $23.25 in cash and $4.50 in Netflix stock per share, subject to a collar tied to Netflix’s 15-day volume-weighted average price before closing. The transaction implies an equity value of about $72 billion for WBD. Completion is expected 12 to 18 months after regulatory reviews and shareholder approval, and following WBD’s planned separation of its Global Networks division into a new company, Discovery Global, anticipated in the third quarter of 2026.<visualization data='{&quot;components&quot;:[{&quot;show_type&quot;:&quot;jgyStandardChartSdk&quot;,&quot;config&quot;:{&quot;parameter&quot;:{&quot;xAttribute&quot;:&quot;date&quot;,&quot;yAttribute&quot;:&quot;close&quot;},&quot;name&quot;:&quot;line&quot;,&quot;showDataZoom&quot;:true},&quot;title_config&quot;:{&quot;config&quot;:{&quot;display&quot;:true},&quot;data&quot;:{&quot;h1&quot;:&quot;NFLX Closing Price – Last 12 Months&quot;}},&quot;data&quot;:{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;remote-url&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/backtest/agent/session/quant/1803394321/51f5557722260ac9809f5f2e2d9aa0c7/nflx_price_20251205083731_654ffa3a.json&quot;},&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;e8c45304505fcbac&quot;}],&quot;page&quot;:{&quot;layout&quot;:{&quot;layout_data&quot;:&quot;[{\&quot;showType\&quot;:\&quot;jgyStandardChartSdk\&quot;,\&quot;uuid\&quot;:\&quot;e8c45304505fcbac\&quot;}]&quot;},&quot;render_for&quot;:&quot;aigc&quot;,&quot;tracking_info&quot;:{}}}' dataurl='undefined'></visualization>If consummated, the merger would mark a dramatic consolidation in the media landscape. The companies said the move would blend Netflix’s global distribution scale and “best-in-class streaming service” with Warner Bros.’ deep catalog and production infrastructure.“Our mission has always been to entertain the world,” Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said in the release. “By combining Warner Bros.’ incredible library of shows and movies—from timeless classics like Casablanca and Citizen Kane to modern favorites like Harry Potter and Friends—with our culture-defining titles like Stranger Things, KPop Demon Hunters and Squid Game, we&#39;ll be able to do that even better.”Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters said the acquisition “will improve our offering and accelerate our business for decades to come,” adding that Warner Bros. “continues to do so with phenomenal creative executives and production capabilities.” Peters also highlighted the deal’s financial rationale, stating that Netflix expects to “realize at least $2–3 billion of cost savings per year by the third year and expects the transaction to be accretive to GAAP earnings per share by year two.”Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav framed the merger as an extension of the studio’s legacy. “For more than a century, Warner Bros. has thrilled audiences, captured the world’s attention, and shaped our culture,” he said. “By coming together with Netflix, we will ensure people everywhere will continue to enjoy the world’s most resonant stories for generations to come.”The companies emphasized the merger’s benefits for consumers, creatives, and shareholders. Netflix said maintaining Warner Bros.’ current operations—including theatrical releases—would expand content choices for subscribers and drive engagement. The combined entity expects increased production capacity in the U.S. and broader opportunities for talent to work with “beloved intellectual property.”The deal introduces a significant structural shift for WBD. Its Global Networks unit—which includes CNN, TNT Sports, Discovery’s European free-to-air channels, and digital platforms like Discovery+ and Bleacher Report—will be spun out as Discovery Global, a separate publicly traded firm not included in the Netflix transaction.Advisers on the deal include Moelis &amp; Company for Netflix and Allen &amp; Company, J.P. Morgan, and Evercore for WBD. Netflix’s legal counsel is Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &amp; Flom LLP, while WBD is represented by Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen &amp; Katz and Debevoise &amp; Plimpton LLP.

Its rebranding to Meta in 2021 reflected a pivot toward the &quot;metaverse,&quot; a virtual reality ecosystem envisioned as the future of social interaction, work, and commerce. The company&#39;s stock, traded under the ticker META on NASDAQ, has experienced dramatic fluctuations. Post-IPO, shares dipped below $20 amid mobile advertising concerns but rebounded strongly, surpassing $500 by 2024 amid AI advancements and ad revenue growth. As of late 2025, META&#39;s price hovers around $661, with year-to-date gains of about 13%, driven by resilient advertising business despite economic headwinds.

dataurl='undefined'></visualization>One of Meta&#39;s standout features is Facebook Marketplace, launched in 2016 as a free platform for users to buy and sell items locally. It integrates seamlessly with Facebook&#39;s social graph, allowing buyers to view sellers&#39; profiles for added trust, and supports categories like vehicles, housing, and electronics. Unlike traditional e-commerce sites, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/technology/facebook-launches-marketplace-for-local-buying-and-selling-idUSKCN1231A4/" target='__blank'>according to Reuters</a>, Marketplace emphasizes community-driven transactions, with features like location-based searches and messaging for negotiations. It has grown into a &quot;wild west&quot; of e-commerce, rivaling Craigslist by enabling quick, informal deals while incorporating delivery partnerships like DoorDash for convenience. In recent developments, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-04/meta-s-zuckerberg-plans-deep-cuts-for-metaverse-efforts" target='__blank'>Bloomberg reports that</a> Meta is scaling back its metaverse ambitions, which once consumed billions in investments. CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who rebranded the company around this vision in 2021, is now proposing cuts up to 30% in the metaverse group for 2026, potentially including layoffs. This shift redirects resources from virtual worlds like Horizon Worlds and Quest VR to AI glasses and wearables within the Reality Labs division, which has incurred over $70 billion in losses since 2021. Investors have welcomed the news, with shares rising 3-4% on reports, as it addresses concerns over resource drains and refocuses on profitable AI initiatives. Meta&#39;s evolution underscores its adaptability in a competitive tech landscape, balancing innovation with shareholder value. While the metaverse dream fades in priority, the core social and marketplace ecosystems remain robust, positioning the company for sustained growth.FAQHow can I start investing in Meta stock as a beginner?To buy META shares, open a brokerage account with platforms like Robinhood or Vanguard. Deposit funds, search for &quot;META,&quot; and place a market or limit order. Start small, perhaps with fractional shares, and track quarterly earnings on Reuters for informed decisions. ()What opportunities exist in Meta&#39;s stock during market rallies?Look for entry points after dips, like post-earnings corrections, using tools like TradingView charts to identify support levels. Positive news on AI or ad growth can spark rallies—set alerts on Bloomberg for updates. Diversify with ETFs holding META to capture broader tech gains.What risks should I watch for when trading on Facebook Marketplace?<a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/facebook-marketplace-the-wild-west-of-e-commerce-11565947821" target='__blank'>According to WSJ</a>, Scams are common; verify sellers via profiles and meet in public for in-person deals. () Avoid wiring money—use cash or protected payment methods. Platform policies ban certain items like firearms, so check guidelines to prevent account bans. How might Meta&#39;s shift from metaverse affect my investment?Reduced metaverse spending could lower losses and boost profitability, potentially lifting stock prices as seen in recent surges. However, if AI wearables underperform, volatility may increase—monitor WSJ for analyst insights. Balance with long-term holds if you believe in Meta&#39;s ad dominance.What&#39;s a simple way to use Facebook Marketplace for profit?List items with clear photos and competitive prices, using keywords for visibility. Flip free or low-cost finds from local groups, but factor in time and shipping risks. Aim for niches like electronics to build repeat buyers.
