When President Trump announced sweeping tariffs<\/a> this week, some of the biggest tech companies had obvious reasons for worry.<\/p>\n

Apple<\/a>, Dell, Oracle, Hewlett-Packard \u2014 which rely on hardware and global supply chains that are in the direct line of fire from tariffs \u2014 saw their shares go into free-fall<\/a>. But there was another big tech company whose stock took a pummeling even though its core business has little to do with hardware: Meta.<\/p>\n

Shares of the company, which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, fell $52 to $531.62 on Thursday and were down again on Friday. In total, Meta shed a whopping 9 percent of its market capitalization on Thursday.<\/p>\n
