I don't expect much change to come from the government pursuit of the big tech monopolies.

Antitrust suits can take most of decade to play out, as they did with Microsoft in the 90's and with Ma Bell in from 1974 to 1982 before it. I expect trying to tackle the Big Tech companies at once could take even longer.

Meanwhile, presidential administrations change, companies find ways around compliance, and life goes on.

That's not to say wins by the U.S. government in the courts won't have effects on the stock prices, but the chances of splitting up these behemoths gets more remote with every passing year, IMHO.
