Remember when it was a very big deal that Apple& #39;s market cap hit $1 trillion? That was 2018. Now:
Apple $2.2 trillion
Microsoft: $1.9 trillion
Amazon: $1.8 trillion
Alphabet: $1.6 trillion
Facebook: $940 billion

Words failed me to explain the BANANAS status of the Big Five.
Tech giants aren& #39;t making bonkers dollars in spite of the pandemic. They have grown stronger *because* of the pandemic.
It’s both logical and slightly nuts. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/29/technology/big-tech-pandemic-economy.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/2...

One bonkers stat out of many possible bonkers stats:
In less than a week, the Big Five generate more sales than McDonald& #39;s does in a year. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/29/technology/big-tech-pandemic-economy.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/2...

Amazon& #39;s market cap grew BY ALMOST A FACEBOOK ($860 billion) just since the beginning of 2020.
Also, may I just note that I got the words "Bonkers Dollars" into a headline.
In The New York Times.
Thank you.

I look forward to U.S. senators discussing Facebook& #39;s 43% operating margins as the next congressional grilling.
Another wild thing is that the tech giants aren& #39;t just capitalizing on pandemic-altered habits. They& #39;re leaning into the pandemic.
They& #39;re cutting expenses where it matters less and spending big to extend their advantage. Like @KYWeise said: https://twitter.com/KYWeise/status/1387878107709726722">https://twitter.com/KYWeise/s...

I cannot explain how wild all these numbers are. There is a pandemic. The U.S. economy contracted last year.
It was no sure thing that big tech companies would do fine. {NARRATOR& #39;s VOICE: THEY DID VERY FINE.}

A year ago, I really didn& #39;t think Big Tech would do awesome IN A PANDEMIC.
