How do Facebook and Microsoft compare?

I just wish I had shares in both companies but nice to see Apple knocked off the top for a bit.

I'd be wary of apple. I do think they are starting to stagnate. Not to say they will stay this way. But investors are getting nervous
Look at go pro. A more severe case of limited product range.

more importantly - are those free .xyz domains that peiople signed up for on here a while ago now going to be worth something thanks to alpahbet (abc.xyz) popularising them?

No.

All it will do is reduce the number of people who reply "dot what?" when you read out your .xyz domain.

The market seems hung up on the iPhone despite the fact that Apple's non-iPhone revenue is equivalent to Microsoft's total revenue. The market also doesn't care about Apple's mountain of cash.

I'm going to stick with my APPL shares for a bit longer. I don't see it growing at the same crazy rate as before but the iPhone 7 should have a positive effect on the price.
