Meta Stock Is Having Its Best Month Since 2013. History Says Every 20% Month Has Led to Gains a Year Later.

Most of the social media giant's earlier 20% months came with hard numbers behind them. Does this one?

Meta Platforms (META) shares have experienced a remarkable 30% increase in September, bringing the stock price to approximately $750, on track for its largest monthly gain since July 2013. The rally has brought the stock within 5% of its all-time high of $790.00, set in August 2025. The surge is primarily attributed to the launch of Meta's AI-powered personal agent, Muse, which can assist users with tasks such as booking travel, filling out forms, and sending emails.

Since Meta's initial public offering in 2012, the stock has surged by at least 20% in a single month nine times, and shares were up 12 months later in all nine instances. However, it remains to be seen if this month's performance will follow the historical pattern.
