On April 30, Meta will launch stablecoin payments for creators through Stripe, planning to settle using Circle's USDC on the Solana and Polygon blockchains. This marks a significant step for a major tech company in integrating cryptocurrency into the mainstream creator economy. The feature will initially pilot with creators in Colombia and the Philippines, who will need to convert USDC to local currency through local exchanges, as Meta does not provide direct fiat currency exchange services. Meta previously abandoned the Libra project in 2022 due to regulatory hurdles, and this collaboration leverages existing stablecoin infrastructure to reduce compliance risks and enhance cross-border payment efficiency.

According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, Meta released its Q1 financial report, showing revenue of $56.31 billion, a 33% year-on-year increase, surpassing Wall Street's expectation of $55.45 billion. Adjusted earnings per share were $7.31, higher than the expected $6.79. The reported profit includes a one-time tax benefit of $8.03 billion, resulting from new rules simplifying the corporate alternative minimum tax introduced by the U.S. Treasury in February, which partially offsets the $15.93 billion tax incurred last year due to the tax reduction legislation. Both revenue and profit exceeded expectations, but the stock price fell about 7% after hours, primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures. Meta raised its full-year capital expenditure guidance from $115 to $135 billion to $125 to $145 billion, which is $10 billion higher than previously estimated. The actual capital expenditure for 2025 is projected to be $72.2 billion, nearly doubling within a year. CFO Susan Li stated that the increase is due to rising component costs and the demand for new data center construction, adding in a conference call that "so far, we have been underestimating computing power demand." User data also weighed on the stock price. The daily active users of its applications reached 3.56 billion, a 4% year-on-year increase, but below analysts' expectations of 3.62 billion, and a decline from the previous quarter. Meta attributed this to internet outages in Iran and restrictions on WhatsApp access in Russia. Advertising remains the core growth engine, with advertising revenue of $55.02 billion, accounting for over 98% of total revenue. The number of ad impressions increased by 19% year-on-year, and the average price per ad rose by 12%. CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated in the conference call that Muse Spark is "the biggest milestone of the year," a model launched by Meta's superintelligent lab led by Alexandr Wang. Following its release, Meta AI saw a double-digit growth in user session volume. Zuckerberg also mentioned that Meta "does not oppose" creating programming tools, but that "this is not our main focus." Meta also disclosed plans to lay off about 10% of its workforce, affecting approximately 8,000 employees, and to eliminate 6,000 open positions. CFO Li stated that the layoffs will help the company "act faster" and offset infrastructure investments. As of the end of March, the total number of employees was 77,986. The Q2 revenue guidance is set at $58 to $61 billion, roughly in line with analysts' expectations.

On April 30, Iranian Islamic Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf stated on the X platform, 'Three days have passed, and there has been no oil well explosion. We can extend the live broadcast to 30 days and conduct it here. This is the kind of garbage advice that the U.S. government often receives from people like Bessent, who advocate for blockade theories and have pushed oil prices above $120. The next target: $140. The issue is not the theory, but the mindset.'

On April 30, a report from CICC stated that theoretically, the Federal Reserve should and needs to cut rates about twice, which is one reason why we are more optimistic about rate cuts than the market. As long as oil prices do not remain above $100 until the end of the year, and high base effects lead to a decline in inflation, it could provide room for the Fed to cut rates. However, in practice, cooperation from oil prices and Trump is necessary. The high oil prices resulting from the stalemate in the Iran situation, along with Powell's concerns about ongoing investigations leading to divisions within the Fed, are not issues that Walsh can resolve independently once he takes over in June. The key lies with Trump; if a quick compromise is reached and the investigation into Powell is completely ended, the prospects for rate cuts will gradually open up.
