G for google and A for Amazon

• randomdata 4y ago
  Google is spelt with an A (Alphabet), although perhaps this is meant to be ticker symbols (GOOG)? If that's the case, then why MANGA and not MATAG? Netflix is only the 34th largest tech company by market cap. It doesn't fit alongside the others.

    Working at Google is more prestigious than some other Alphabet division. Netflix was, at least in the early days, famous for high salaries and being a tech-centric company, setting it apart from eg. Hulu. These acronyms are employment -centric, not to do with market cap

      > These acronyms are employment -centric When it comes to employment, Facebook is usually regarded as being up there with Google. Well ahead of Amazon, that is for sure. Nobody considers Amazon as being a desirable place to work, even in engineering. Why didn't Facebook make the MANGA cut? Facebook/Meta is not among the top five largest companies, though, so it stands to reason why it doesn't make the cut from that perspective. > not to do with market cap Thing is, MANGA actually works for market cap if you go back a year or two when it first started appearing. Netflix has just fallen big time in the interim. Tesla has taken its place. It seems quite apparent that it, like FAANG before it, is old and outdated. Heralding from a time when it fit the times, but, like FAANG, no longer does. After all, MANGA itself replaced FAANG to recognize the changing environment, and the environment has changed again.
