      Automative, telecommunications, financial services, machinery, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, home appliances, clean energy, nanomaterials, fashion ... They are better than US in these. You know European and US GDP are not that different, despite the huge debt ratio of the US?

    • I highly disagree with your European predictions. If there is something that is clear to me from reading international news is that Europe is a dying continent. The reason for Brexit is mainly because of that. Europe is becoming more polarized, with more and more countries turning away from the EU and its values. This is primarily due to the very left-wing socialistic policies of the EU and especially due to the immigration crisis since the Arab spring and which is now about to repeat itself again. Many of the EU countries are electing right-wing conservative governments to mitigate the failures of the EU. By the time these governments will be able to reverse all the policies, it might be too late. Even, if they succeed, it will take them many years to be able to get their feet back on the ground.

  • - FB as we currently know it will seize to exist. It will reincarnate as a set of new products that are more appealing to the younger generations.
    - AV will still be a faraway dream, but autonomous trucks will begin taking over.
    - Google will become the Microsoft of the Ballmer era. Suffering from deep stagnation and the inability to innovate.
    - Amazon will be hit by a huge anti-trust lawsuit that will bring it to its knees.
    - Startups who will not be able to pay the high salaries of the big players will die.
    - FAANG will stop being a thing on Blind and other tech websites.

      Sounds like you bombed FAANG interviews !!

    • Nope. Had a Google offer. But based on your comment it sounds to me that the only thing that keeps you going is one of the 'a' in the Faang. So let's be really clear. Apple is only Faang for stock related matters. As for brand/reputation purposes I'd not consider it in the same category as G and F. The same applies to Amazon.

  • 2030 - Apple will go broke.
    Tesla will be new Apple ( in terms of market cap)

    FB will die as they still won't have a working backup plan for when the world gets fed up with social.

      I don’t think the world will get fed up with Social. It’s a basic human need. Recent examples: IG, TikTok, Snap
