Investors in the largest online social media platform, have a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day as Facebook’s shares beat the expectations and showcased more profit than expected in its quarterly revenue growth.

Also, according to an analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown, login trends have been improving in parts of Europe that were otherwise showing no signs of activity.

Facebook’s shares rose an estimated 12 percent to $168.20 after the closing bell. We can assume that the Social Giant’s actions against the spread of fake news may just be gaining users trusts after all.
