Meta's $8.22 Billion Trading Volume Ranks Sixth as AI Supercluster Plans Unveiled

On July 15, 2025, Meta's trading volume reached $8.22 billion, ranking sixth in the day's stock market. Meta (META) fell by 1.46%.

Meta's CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, announced that the company's first AI data supercluster is expected to go online in 2026. This initiative is part of Meta's broader strategy to invest "hundreds of billions of dollars" in compute infrastructure to support its push toward artificial superintelligence. The company is building several multi-gigawatt data center clusters, including Prometheus in Ohio and Hyperion in Louisiana. Prometheus, set to come online in 2026, will be the first of these clusters and is designed for rapid deployment. Hyperion, targeting up to 5 gigawatts, is planned to be fully completed by 2030 and will initially reach up to 1.5 gigawatts of IT capacity by the end of 2027. These investments position Meta at the forefront of the race for large-scale AI infrastructure, with plans to spend $60–65 billion in AI-related capital expenditures this year, nearly double from 2024.

Zuckerberg emphasized the importance of building an elite team and investing heavily in compute infrastructure to achieve superintelligence. He noted that Meta is on track to be the first organization to bring a 1 gigawatt+ AI supercluster online, with multiple additional clusters in development. The company's aggressive spending on talent and infrastructure underscores its commitment to leading the field of artificial superintelligence, which aims to create AI systems with cognitive functions and thinking skills beyond human capabilities.
