Only? No. They've done better than most but all major stocks are up. We are in a mega stock boom at the moment.

Most of it is because of americans. Even if h1b visa was shut down, none of the FAANG are going to suffer.

That's my point. Isn't it evil to take "talented people" from part of the world that needs them the most?
> America’s roots is in immigration.
Our roots aren't in immigration. Our roots are in invasion and conquest. I know this is a touchy subject but we aren't a nation of immigrants. This country wasn't created by immigrants. We have exploited immigrants for sure, but I just disagree with the false notion that our roots are in immigration.
The founding fathers were highly anti-immigrant and quite xenophobic. And ever since the founding there have been series of anti-immigration laws. I'd gladly provide sources if you are curious.
