Pardon my ignorance but what was Cambridge Analytica doing if not using advanced analytics for Facebook targeting?
I don't think Facebook has a section where someone can talk about what stocks they might hold. So, if the HF was able to target specific people who owned P&G stocks then I think it was an efficient targeting, maybe not as much of scale of US elections but enough to turn the voting in their favor.
