The FAANG-nary In The Coal Mine
• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Adam TaggartTwo weeks ago, I issued a report to Peak Prosperity's premium subscribers, warning of an imminent downwards re-pricing of the FAANG stocks. I even made a rare recommendation for taking an active short position against them (one now up 18%).
That report proved quite timely. Over the past 10 days:
Netflix (NFLX) is down 10% after issuing disappointing subscriber growth and Q3 guidance
Facebook (FB) is down 20% after delivering lower user and revenue numbers than the Street was expecting
Amazon (AMZN) is flat despite posting blowout Q2 EPS yesterday, offset by a revenue miss
Google/Alphabet (GOOGL) only managed a meager 3% rise after reporting earnings & revenue beats that were tempered by rising costs and a record $5 billion EU anti-trust fine
This sudden weakness among key FAANG members is extremely significant. Much more so than most investors realize.
