What's Going On With Tech Giant Meta's Stock Today?
Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:META) shares are trading lower on Thursday. The technology giant is poised to receive its first EU antitrust fine for linking its classified advertisements service, Marketplace, with its Facebook social network, Reuters writes in its exclusive report.
據路透社獨家報道，納斯達克（NASDAQ：META）股價週四下跌。該科技巨頭將首次收到來自歐盟的反壟斷罰款，原因是其將其分類廣告服務Marketplace與其Facebook社交網絡相連。
This decision from the European Commission comes more than 18 months after Meta was accused of unfairly bundling the two services together.
歐洲委員會的這項決定是在Meta被指控不公平捆綁這兩個服務18個月後做出的。
The EU competition authority claims Meta misused its dominance by imposing unfair trading conditions on rival online classified ad services that use Facebook or Instagram.
歐盟競爭機構聲稱，Meta濫用其優勢，對使用Facebook或Instagram的競爭對手在線分類廣告服務強加不公平的交易條件。
Meta could face a fine of up to $13.4 billion, representing 10% of its 2023 global revenue, although EU fines are typically much lower.
Meta可能面臨高達134億美元的罰款，相當於其2023年全球營業收入的10%，儘管歐盟罰款通常要低得多。
The European Commission is expected to issue its decision in September or October before EU antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager leaves office in November.
預計歐盟委員會將在9月或10月發佈決定，此前歐盟反競爭事務主管Margrethe Vestager在11月離職。

Meta spokesperson Matt Pollard told Reuters, "The claims made by the European Commission are without foundation. We continue to work constructively with regulatory authorities to demonstrate that our product innovation is pro-consumer and pro-competitive."
Meta發言人馬特·波拉德告訴路透社：“歐盟委員會的指控毫無根據。我們繼續與監管機構進行建設性合作，以證明我們的產品創新是對消費者和競爭有利的。”
Last year, Meta attempted to resolve the EU investigation by restricting the use of competitors' advertising data for Facebook Marketplace, but the EU enforcer rejected this offer. However, the U.K. competition regulator accepted a similar proposal.
去年，Meta試圖通過限制競爭對手的廣告數據在Facebook Marketplace上的使用來解決歐盟的調查，但歐盟執法者拒絕了這一提議。然而，英國競爭監管機構接受了類似的提議。
Earlier this month, the European Commission charged Meta with failing to comply with new tech regulations due to its recently introduced pay-or-consent advertising model launched in November.
本月早些時候，歐盟委員會指控Meta未能遵守由其於11月推出的“付費或同意”廣告模式的新技術規定。

Meta股價在過去12個月中上漲了56%以上。投資者可以通過通訊服務etf-vanguard（VOX）和通訊服務選擇板塊SPDR基金（NYSE：XLC）獲得該股票的投資。
