Gloria daily close for session Oct 27, 2026. Market cap and trailing P/E use this close with the SEC share total and trailing diluted earnings, each dated next to its figure. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin show their own fiscal period and link the 10-K. Current context may postdate this article.

Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 28, 2026, 4:51 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Quoted token and share units can have different rights, multipliers and dividend treatment. This is not an executable premium or arbitrage signal.
Meta is making its move onto the desktop. The company’s Manus desktop app, born from its December 2025 acquisition of the AI agent startup Manus, launched in mid-March 2026 for both macOS and Windows, bringing a feature called “My Computer” that lets users manage files and automate tasks directly on their devices.
The timing is no accident. OpenAI announced plans around the same period for its own unified macOS desktop “super app” combining ChatGPT, Codex, and the Atlas browser into a single interface.
The core selling point of the Manus desktop app is its “My Computer” feature, which facilitates local file organization and app automation without routing everything through cloud services.
Meta acquired Manus in December 2025, and the desktop app arrived roughly three months later. The app works on macOS and Windows, giving it broader reach than OpenAI’s initial desktop efforts, which have historically leaned macOS-first.

OpenAI’s competing vision would merge three distinct products, ChatGPT for conversation, Codex for code, and Atlas for browsing, into a single macOS application. User feedback on OpenAI’s rollout has been mixed.
Meta AI has been accessible via web and mobile platforms for some time, with substantial updates to its desktop capabilities beginning around April 2025. The Manus acquisition accelerated what appears to have been an existing roadmap to move beyond browser-based interactions.
Why local AI matters
The distinction between cloud-dependent and locally-capable AI tools has real implications for adoption. Enterprise users have been cautious about sending sensitive documents and workflows through third-party servers. A tool that can automate file management and application tasks without that data ever leaving the machine removes one of the biggest objections IT departments raise.
