Facebooks stock went up by 4.2% after a federal court dismissed two lawsuits that was set to unwind Facebook’s Instagram and WhatsApp acquisitions. But after a federal judge stated that the FTC did not offer enough evidence that the company is a monopoly, the cases were thrown out.

The social media company is the fifth U.S. company to hit the milestone, joining Apple, Microsoft, Amazon and Google-parent company Alphabet.

Some of the most notable divisions of Facebook consist of the likes of Instagram, WhatsApp and Oculus.

The company’s market cap is sitting at $1.008 trillion according to Yahoo Finance, putting it over the mark for the first time in its history.
