PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 06/18, Up 2%) Boasts 35 quarters in a row of 20% revenue growth. Online ads will continue to grow, and Google dominates search engines. The Cloud will continue to grow. They invest in hardware, software and healthcare. Perfect balance sheet. Has 20x earnings. One of the greatest companies on Earth.

TOP PICK

High quality. At current levels, it's now affordable, trading at 20x PE and growing at 16%. They play offence through YouTube, Cloud, Waymo and continue to monetize through improvements in search and product updates. (Analysts’ price target is $1346.82)

WAIT

Regulatory overhang? There are serious concerns with antitrust and privacy laws with this one and in his opinion they are only likely to intensify. Valuation and fundamental growth looks OK. It's got monopoly power. It's investing in all the right business lines. Really likes it long term. Reasonably priced, it's growing, it's in all the right niches, but doesn't recommend buying now, you want to wait until they make new highs.

HOLD

He has cut back on this position but it is still in a sweet spot in terms of the growth going forward. They have not monetized a lot of their asset such as android. There is money now coming out of this sector. There is money flow risk because it is over owned. Advertizing is generally a pretty cyclical thing. He'd like to see a couple of quarters of earnings. This is one of the last tech stocks he would continue to own. He would still have a position. It is a core name. Maybe not put your full position on.

BUY

Held support a couple of times last year. Wouldn't mind adding exposure here. Next support level is around $880. Longer term uptrend is intact. Longer term, info tech is an area he likes. Info tech should be one of the outperformers in the next 4-year cycle. It's been on sale the last 3 months.

BUY

It has been a long term holding and he is very positive. It trades 18 times next years earnings, which continue to grow at 20% per year. They still dominate the market. Some of their "other bets" will payoff soon. He would buy this as a long term holding.

BUY

Still buying it during this pullback. Their online advertising, which they dominate, is still growing and they hold a lot of cash so that can finance their growth without taking on a lot of debt. Their self-driving division will launch sometime in 2019 and has good potential. Google is growing their topline by 22% for a few years, which she believes they can sustain.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 06/17, Up 1%) Tech is over-owned and we'll see continued selling pressure, but he worries less about Google (and MSFT), because it's supported by earnings and growth, driven by the Cloud. Google is still a great story.

TOP PICK

#1 in internet search, and owns YouTube and Waymo (self-driving cars). It's pulled back to 23x earnings and still growing revenues in the high-teens %. So it's now cheap. (Analysts’ price target is $1348.97)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 21/18, Down 8%) They are a market disrupter and in 5-10 years, you won’t care what you paid for this. They have a number of different revenue streams. The current drop in stock value is a significant over reaction. Is trading at a forward multiple of 24X. This is one of the best, safest growth names. He would definitely hang on to this name.

TOP PICK

This is a buy and hold. They are a market disrupter. They are a global presence. They have had 33 straight quarters of 20% growth. The forward P/E is 24X which is very reasonable. Yield = 0% (Analysts’ price target is $1349.36)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 29/18, Down 13%) It is cheap for such a good quality company – trading at only 20 times earnings. They hold $107 billion in cash. Yield 0%

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 29/17, Up 17%) A wild ride with these FANG stocks this year. Sometimes they trade on momentum, but eventually value shines through. Google had 35 straight quarters of 20%+ revenue growth at 20x earnings--name another company like that. Hopefully they clean up their office politics. Their investments in self-driving could be huge as well as the connected home. Their Google search and YouTube are crushing it.

BUY

He's long owned it and it's a major holding. All the FANGs have been hit lately. Google's last report beat, but their revenues were light. It went down today because of the general sell-off and a possible UK digital tax is rearing its head. The markets are overreacting now. Google has 21x earnings for 2019, so it's still reasonable. Now, is a great entry point.

TOP PICK

Happy to still buy it. It's the largest online search company globally with an 80% share. Expects more secular growth in digital ads. They're also monetizing YouTube. Waymo could be a leader in self-driving cars in the future. (no dividend, Analysts' price target: $1,386.11)
