Should FAANG be replaced with a new acronym?

Amazon and Google are innovating but Apple, FB, and Netflix are not as great as they used to be. So who's in the new faang?

How about F-A-G?

They need to remove Apple and Netflix. Apple isn't very innovative and Netflix isn't even in Silicon Valley.

When you can get there with a $5 Uber ride you’re still in Silicon Valley

APPLUSSSZ, Stylized as A+Z AirBnB, Palantir, Pinterest, Lyft, Uber, Slack, Stripe, Zoom There’re are various permutations of this, with some companies added or removed, but I’ve seen a quite a few references to the “A+” companies or “A+Z companies”

So FANG represents tech growth stocks...I guess your version is for (mostly) tech loser stocks?

^^ actually I agree with you. The search for a new acronym is dumb. Most of these companies do not have growth stories at worst; have to prove their growth stories at best. Engineers forget but FANG is a finance thing not a tech thing. Netflix is barely a tech company. We don’t need a new acronym

You do realize that FANG is a finance acronym right? It describes the bell weathers for the tech industry (specifically growth stories). It’s still largely accurate
