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.
据路透社独家报道，纳斯达克（NASDAQ：META）股价周四下跌。该科技巨头将首次收到来自欧盟的反垄断罚款，原因是其将其分类广告服务Marketplace与其Facebook社交网络相连。
This decision from the European Commission comes more than 18 months after Meta was accused of unfairly bundling the two services together.
欧洲委员会的这项决定是在Meta被指控不公平捆绑这两个服务18个月后做出的。
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.
欧盟竞争机构声称，Meta滥用其优势，对使用Facebook或Instagram的竞争对手在线分类广告服务强加不公平的交易条件。
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可能面临高达134亿美元的罚款，相当于其2023年全球营业收入的10%，尽管欧盟罚款通常要低得多。
The European Commission is expected to issue its decision in September or October before EU antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager leaves office in November.
预计欧盟委员会将在9月或10月发布决定，此前欧盟反竞争事务主管Margrethe Vestager在11月离职。

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发言人马特·波拉德告诉路透社：“欧盟委员会的指控毫无根据。我们继续与监管机构进行建设性合作，以证明我们的产品创新是对消费者和竞争有利的。”
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试图通过限制竞争对手的广告数据在Facebook Marketplace上的使用来解决欧盟的调查，但欧盟执法者拒绝了这一提议。然而，英国竞争监管机构接受了类似的提议。
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.
本月早些时候，欧盟委员会指控Meta未能遵守由其于11月推出的“付费或同意”广告模式的新技术规定。
Meta stock has gained more than 56% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Vanguard Communication Services ETF (VOX) and Communication Services Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:XLC).
Meta股价在过去12个月中上涨了56%以上。投资者可以通过通讯服务etf-vanguard（VOX）和通讯服务选择板块SPDR基金（NYSE：XLC）获得该股票的投资。
