Shares of Facebook, Inc. (NASDAQ: FB) are getting some rare Wall Street love this morning from non-other than famed Apple analyst Gene Munster at Piper Jaffray.
Like he was on Apple some 4000 percent ago, Munster is hot about Facebook now.
He said the stock offers the greatest discount to future potential growth compared to other large cap tech stocks and the outlook is bright longer-term.
Muster sees upcoming catalyst including a potential "want," and positive data on mobile sponsored stories.
He warns however that the upcoming November 15th lock-up expiration could be an overhang, although he doesn't see shares heavily impacted following the expiration.
He is maintaining his Overweight rating and $41 price target.
