Meta Shares Fall More Than 7% After Landmark Court Ruling

The move erased about $100 billion in market value after a court case found the company failed to adequately warn or protect young users.

Fact Check
The claim is directly supported by multiple financial news outlets reporting on the specific date (March 26, 2026). Yahoo Finance explicitly details a 7% drop in Meta's stock price and attributes it to a landmark jury verdict in Los Angeles concerning the protection of young users. The estimated $100 billion loss in market value is mathematically consistent with a 7% decline in Meta's projected market capitalization for 2026.
