6 Stocks That Moved the Market in February

February was a huge month in the stock market, and investors can look back to identify key trends. Earnings season created some winners and losers, while geopolitical tensions and a growth stock sell-off drastically increased volatility. Here are some of the stocks that played the biggest roles in February's market.

Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: FB) dropped 32.8% in February, wiping out $300 billion in market capitalization. Most of the damage was inflicted in the days following the tech giant's fourth-quarter earnings report. Meta's earnings fell short of Wall Street's forecasts, but investors were even more troubled by the details.
