<h3>About Roblox</h3>
Roblox operates an online video game platform with 80 million daily active users that lets young gamers create, develop, and monetize games (or "experiences") for other players.

TOST

Toast shares are trading lower after Goldman Sachs cut its price target on the stock from $45 to $40.

This week, Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and Threads, announced significant changes to its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42851889/meta-ditches-fact-checking-for-community-notes-zuckerberg-says-opportunity-to-restore-free-expression">content moderation policies</a>, shifting toward a "community notes" model where users flag questionable content instead of relying on third-party fact-checkers.
&#8220;So, we're going to continue to focus these systems on tackling illegal and high-severity violations, like terrorism, child sexual exploitation, drugs, fraud and scams,&#8221; said CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/07/is-zuckerberg-kneeling-to-trump-00196991">has implied </a>that he&#8217;s keen to work with President-elect Donald Trump, after having banned him<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/02/30848473/trumps-back-on-facebook-and-instagram-for-real" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> from his platforms.</a>
"Too much harmless content gets censored, too many people find themselves wrongly locked up in ‘Facebook jail,' and we are often too slow to respond when they do," said Zuckerberg, referring to the automated systems that scan for policy violations but can make mistakes. "We want to fix that and return to that fundamental commitment to free expression. Today, we're making some changes to stay true to that ideal."
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Why Then Is Cannabis Still In Facebook Jail?</h1>
For those in the cannabis community, whether medical marijuana patients or industry advocates and news outlets, the announcement seems to leave their concerns unaddressed. 
Despite these changes, Meta continues to block searches for terms like "marijuana" and "cannabis." Searches for organizations such as the "Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission," "Marijuana Policy Project," or "Marijuana Moment," the cannabis outlet that <a href="https://www.marijuanamoment.net/despite-sweeping-updates-to-facebook-policies-in-favor-of-free-expression-restrictions-on-marijuana-related-accounts-remain/">pointed out</a> these contradictions, yield no results. Instead users find the following notification: "If you see the sale of drugs, please report it." 
This approach persists even as many states have legalized marijuana, hamstringing businesses, advocates and content creators who have had their accounts suspended or restricted. 
Meta's statement regarding illegal activities essentially suggests there has been no shift in its stance on cannabis, which it apparently has filed under its list of "high severity violations, like terrorism, drugs, fraud, and scams."
Meta did not respond to Benzinga's request for clarification on whether or how the new policies would impact its treatment of cannabis-related content. For now, the cannabis community remains sidelined, despite the company's rhetoric about embracing free expression and reducing censorship.

<h2>All You Need to Know About Roblox</h2>
Roblox operates an online video game platform with 80 million daily active users that lets young gamers create, develop, and monetize games (or "experiences") for other players. The firm offers its developers a hybrid of a game engine, publishing platform, online hosting and services, marketplace with payment processing, and social network. The platform is a closed garden that Roblox controls, earning $3.5 billion in bookings in 2023 through in-game purchases and advertising while benefiting from outsourced game development. Unlike traditional video game publishers, Roblox is more focused on the creation of new tools and monetization techniques for its developers than creating new games or franchises.
<h3>Understanding the Numbers: Roblox's Finances</h3>
Market Capitalization Highlights: Above the industry average, the company's market capitalization signifies a significant scale, indicating strong confidence and market prominence.
Positive Revenue Trend: Examining Roblox's financials over 3 months reveals a positive narrative. The company achieved a noteworthy revenue growth rate of 28.84% as of 30 September, 2024, showcasing a substantial increase in top-line earnings. In comparison to its industry peers, the company stands out with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Communication Services sector.
Net Margin: Roblox's net margin is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in maintaining strong profitability. With a net margin of -26.04%, the company may face hurdles in effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): Roblox's ROE lags behind industry averages, suggesting challenges in maximizing returns on equity capital. With an ROE of -153.7%, the company may face hurdles in achieving optimal financial performance.
Return on Assets (ROA): Roblox's ROA is below industry averages, indicating potential challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of -3.64%, the company may face hurdles in achieving optimal financial returns.
Debt Management: Roblox's debt-to-equity ratio stands notably higher than the industry average, reaching 9.26. This indicates a heavier reliance on borrowed funds, raising concerns about financial leverage.
<h2>Analyst Ratings: What Are They?</h2>
Analyst ratings serve as essential indicators of stock performance, provided by experts in banking and financial systems. These specialists diligently analyze company financial statements, participate in conference calls, and engage with insiders to generate quarterly ratings for individual stocks.
In addition to their assessments, some analysts extend their insights by offering predictions for key metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates. This supplementary information provides further guidance for traders. It is crucial to recognize that, despite their specialization, analysts are human and can only provide forecasts based on their beliefs.
