A rebound in megacap technology stocks that helped snap four weeks of declines for the Nasdaq 100 Stock Index had one notable exception this week: Facebook Inc.

A 0.3% gain for the social media giant on Friday wasn’t enough to reverse losses the stock suffered earlier in the week amid intense scrutiny of its products and a global outage. Facebook shares ended the week down nearly 4%, marking the fourth-straight week of declines, the longest such stretch since the height of the Covid-19 crisis in March 2020.
