5. Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:FB)

Time believes Meta deserves the credit for mainstreaming the metaverse concept. In March, the magazine said that after Meta’s huge pivot towards metaverse, major companies like Microsoft and Google also starting investing in metaverse startups. However, 2022 was a bad year for Meta. The stock lost over 60% of its value in the year. Time noted that Apple’s key changes in its advertising policies also dented Meta.

Despite the poor performance in 2022, Meta remains one of the most important companies in the world. Hedge funds also hold the company dear, as 177 funds had stakes in the Meta as of the end of the third quarter of last year.
