Meta (META) reported second quarter results that beat analyst estimates for both revenue and profit. ROTH MKM Managing Director Rohit Kulkarni joins Market Domination Overtime to analyze the earnings report.

Kulkarni notes that while the lead-up to Meta's earnings was "controversial" due to other "Magnificent Seven" companies' reports, Meta actually surprised investors positively. He highlights a bullish signal: the "year-on-year comps [comparison] is pretty tough for Meta for Q3, and their guidance implies 20% growth on top of very tough comps [comparisons]." Kulkarni rates this report "3.5 out of 5 stars."

Regarding Meta's ad business, Kulkarni highlights its success. He observes, "This company is putting the right ad in front of the right person at the right time," with AI enhancing this efficiency and giving them significant pricing power. Kulkarni adds, "AI is doing the magic that people wanted AI to do, and I think Meta is already there."
