Momentum appears ready to take shares of Facebook higher, Stephen Weiss of Short Hills Capital said Monday.
"This is a momentum market," he said. "You take a look at Tesla. You take a look at Netflix. You take a look at Green Mountain Coffee. If you've got momentum, you're going to go a lot higher. That's all the market cares about. That's why I bought it."
On CNBC's "Fast Money," Weiss said that he wasn't trading the stock for now.

"You can own it, carte blanche, into the next quarter," he said. "I think it's a good company. My concern was always valuation."
The Street CIO Stephanie Link cited a data point for Facebook's gains.
"But the ComScore data is why the stock is rallying," she said, noting that it was the "incremental new news" that sent shares higher.

Rosecliff Capital's Mike Murphy said that he had sold Facebook puts last week.
"I have a tough time jumping in up at these levels," he added.
