What about GOOG? Google and Youtube are two of the best businesses to ever exist. Google is in my eyes by far the best product to ever exist. They have a natural monopoly on information. Think about that for a while... Also, Chromebooks are eating up marketshare from both AAPL (which price way to highly, and have gotten way too greedy) and MSFT. ChromeOS units/users (not sure which) now make up a larger part than MacOS (!). Android has ~85 % market share. And the fact that they use open source for it is appealing. Google still appears to be less evil than their competitors, in my eyes. P.S. The company should be broken up, by the way, I think. (For antitrust reasons.) No reason for Alphabet to be mightier than it needs to be. There's no real benefit to the citizens of the two being combined in one corporate entity – only to GOOG. (Same with FB – Facebook & Instagram etc should be split up too.)) Might even release extra shareholder value, too!

I admit I am a bit mystified that fb keeps making lower lows, and i do not own the stock. if it breaks under $300 the next low is around $265. given how fickle investors are right now for whatever reason. I think I will wait a couple of days. the cost of renovations being what they are now. i dont see housing prices coming down anytime soon. the safest place to be in this market may be home builders. that have lots of land to build on .
