In the fourth quarter of 2018, Facebook had $ 16.9 billion in revenue and a net profit of $ 6.9 billion, up 61 percent from the same period last year. In the fourth quarter of the past year, 1.52 billion people used Facebook at least once a day and 2.32 billion people used it at least once a month (9 percent more than a year ago). They were positive, beyond the positive forecasts that had been made in the previous days. All this despite a complicated year, in which the company has had several problems, mainly related to the way it manages its users' data.
