For Alphabet, the biggest concern is the health of the U.S. economy in the coming quarters. With a multitude of economic datapoints pointing to slower growth or a potential recession, the company's advertising-driven operating segments could see a sales slowdown.

Based on data from GlobalStats, you'd have to go back to March 2015 to find the last time Google didn't account for at least 90% of worldwide monthly search share. There's no question Google is the go-to for advertisers seeking to reach a broad audience or target their marketing campaign. Translation: Alphabet's Google possesses exceptionally strong pricing power during long-winded periods of economic expansion.</p><p>While Google serves as a steady cash-flow foundation for Alphabet, it's the company's ancillary operating segments that are far more exciting for long-term investors. For instance, Google Cloud has generated an operating profit in each of the past two quarters after years of losses. Traditionally, cloud services generate considerably higher margins than advertising. If Google Cloud continues to grow by a double-digit pace, which seems feasible given that enterprise cloud spending is still in its early innings, this segment could become Alphabet's leading cash-flow driver within a couple of years.</p><p>Don't overlook YouTube, either. The introduction of Shorts (short-form videos often lasting less than 60 seconds) has ballooned viewership and created new advertising opportunities. YouTube trails only Facebook as the world's most-visited social site.</p><p>Lastly, Alphabet's valuation is historically cheap, which makes its stock ripe for the picking. As of the closing bell on Oct. 3, 2023, shares of Alphabet could be purchased for just below 20 times forward-year earnings and roughly 14 times forward-year cash flow. Over the past five years, Alphabet has averaged a valuation of 25 times forward-year earnings and 18 times forward-year cash flow.</p><h2 id=\"id_693376457\">The FAANG stock to avoid like the plague in October: Apple</h2><p>However, not all of the FAANG stocks are positioned to be winners in the coming quarters. The FAANG stock I'd suggest avoiding like the plague in October is none other than the United States' largest publicly traded company by market cap, Apple.</p><p>To be perfectly clear, I'm not saying Apple is a bad company. It's a dominant force, domestically, in smartphones, and CEO Tim Cook is overseeing the very successful transformation of Apple into a platforms company. Focusing on a variety of subscription services should minimize the sales lumpiness often associated with major physical product replacement cycles, as well as lift Apple's operating margin over the long run.</p><p>It should also be noted that Apple has an exceptionally loyal customer base and well-recognized brand. The trustworthiness of the Apple brand and its management team is one of the core reasons why billionaire investor Warren Buffett has nearly 47% of <strong>Berkshire Hathaway</strong>'s $337 billion investment portfolio tied up in Apple stock.</p><p>But it's not all peaches and cream for the world's top tech company.</p><p>For instance, iPhone 14 failed to wow consumers or investors. Modest initial sales caused Apple to rethink its plan to boost production last year. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2023 (Apple's fiscal year ends in late September), iPhone sales are down almost $6.1 billion, relative to the comparable period in fiscal 2022. </p><p>It's a similar story for the remainder of the company's physical products. Mac sales have been hit hardest (down 24%), while iPad (down 1%) and wearable, home, and accessories (down 3%) sales are modestly lower through nine months.</p><p>Apple also looks to be somewhat dropping the ball when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). In June, the company unveiled its augmented reality device known as the Vision Pro. Apple was expected to deliver 1 million units of this practically $3,500 headset in 2024. However, a report from <em>Financial Times</em>, based on internal sources, now suggests Apple is targeting just 400,000 headsets next year. </p><p>But perhaps most damning of all is Apple's valuation. For more than a half-decade leading up to the end of fiscal 2018, shares of Apple could be purchased for roughly 10 to 15 times forward earnings. What made the company so attractive is that it consistently grew sales by a double-digit percentage.</p><p>As of this very moment, Apple isn't a growth company. Even though its services segment is expanding, revenue declines from all of its physical products are expected to result in a low-single-digit drop in both the company's sales and profits in fiscal 2023. Despite this decline, investors are paying 26 times forward earnings. That's very close to the upper end of Apple's valuation range over the past decade, and all the more reason to avoid Apple like the plague in October.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>1 FAANG Stock That's a No-Brainer Buy in October and 1 to Avoid Like the Plague</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n1 FAANG Stock That's a No-Brainer Buy in October and 1 to Avoid Like the Plague\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-10-10 08:00 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/10/09/1-faang-stock-no-brainer-buy-in-october-1-to-avoid/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Short-term unpredictability is one of the few guarantees Wall Street brings to the table.

With volatility picking up in recent weeks, one FAANG stock stands out as a no-brainer buy in October, while another is worth avoiding like the plague.</p><h2 id=\"id_3824429572\">The FAANG stock that's a no-brainer buy in October: Alphabet</h2><p>Out of the five time-tested FAANG stocks, it's Alphabet, the parent of Google, streaming platform YouTube, and autonomous vehicle company Waymo, among others, which is a no-brainer buy in October.</p><p>Every single publicly traded company, no matter how much of a stellar buy it might appear, contends with potential headwinds. For Alphabet, the biggest concern is the health of the U.S. economy in the coming quarters. With a multitude of economic datapoints pointing to slower growth or a potential recession, the company's advertising-driven operating segments could see a sales slowdown. Advertisers are often quick to pare back their spending at the first signs of trouble.</p><p>Additionally, faster-growing businesses might choose to lower their cloud-based spending until the economic climate is more certain. This would likely slow the growth rate for Google Cloud.</p><p>Despite these very near-term challenges, there's nothing to suggest that Alphabet's long-term growth trajectory has been altered.</p><p>As noted, we're talking about a veritable monopoly in internet search. Based on data from GlobalStats, you'd have to go back to March 2015 to find the last time Google didn't account for at least 90% of worldwide monthly search share. There's no question Google is the go-to for advertisers seeking to reach a broad audience or target their marketing campaign. Translation: Alphabet's Google possesses exceptionally strong pricing power during long-winded periods of economic expansion.</p><p>While Google serves as a steady cash-flow foundation for Alphabet, it's the company's ancillary operating segments that are far more exciting for long-term investors. For instance, Google Cloud has generated an operating profit in each of the past two quarters after years of losses. Traditionally, cloud services generate considerably higher margins than advertising. If Google Cloud continues to grow by a double-digit pace, which seems feasible given that enterprise cloud spending is still in its early innings, this segment could become Alphabet's leading cash-flow driver within a couple of years.</p><p>Don't overlook YouTube, either. The introduction of Shorts (short-form videos often lasting less than 60 seconds) has ballooned viewership and created new advertising opportunities. YouTube trails only Facebook as the world's most-visited social site.</p><p>Lastly, Alphabet's valuation is historically cheap, which makes its stock ripe for the picking. As of the closing bell on Oct. 3, 2023, shares of Alphabet could be purchased for just below 20 times forward-year earnings and roughly 14 times forward-year cash flow. Over the past five years, Alphabet has averaged a valuation of 25 times forward-year earnings and 18 times forward-year cash flow.</p><h2 id=\"id_693376457\">The FAANG stock to avoid like the plague in October: Apple</h2><p>However, not all of the FAANG stocks are positioned to be winners in the coming quarters. The FAANG stock I'd suggest avoiding like the plague in October is none other than the United States' largest publicly traded company by market cap, Apple.</p><p>To be perfectly clear, I'm not saying Apple is a bad company. It's a dominant force, domestically, in smartphones, and CEO Tim Cook is overseeing the very successful transformation of Apple into a platforms company. Focusing on a variety of subscription services should minimize the sales lumpiness often associated with major physical product replacement cycles, as well as lift Apple's operating margin over the long run.</p><p>It should also be noted that Apple has an exceptionally loyal customer base and well-recognized brand. The trustworthiness of the Apple brand and its management team is one of the core reasons why billionaire investor Warren Buffett has nearly 47% of <strong>Berkshire Hathaway</strong>'s $337 billion investment portfolio tied up in Apple stock.</p><p>But it's not all peaches and cream for the world's top tech company.</p><p>For instance, iPhone 14 failed to wow consumers or investors. Modest initial sales caused Apple to rethink its plan to boost production last year. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2023 (Apple's fiscal year ends in late September), iPhone sales are down almost $6.1 billion, relative to the comparable period in fiscal 2022. </p><p>It's a similar story for the remainder of the company's physical products. Mac sales have been hit hardest (down 24%), while iPad (down 1%) and wearable, home, and accessories (down 3%) sales are modestly lower through nine months.</p><p>Apple also looks to be somewhat dropping the ball when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). In June, the company unveiled its augmented reality device known as the Vision Pro. Apple was expected to deliver 1 million units of this practically $3,500 headset in 2024. However, a report from <em>Financial Times</em>, based on internal sources, now suggests Apple is targeting just 400,000 headsets next year. </p><p>But perhaps most damning of all is Apple's valuation. For more than a half-decade leading up to the end of fiscal 2018, shares of Apple could be purchased for roughly 10 to 15 times forward earnings. What made the company so attractive is that it consistently grew sales by a double-digit percentage.</p><p>As of this very moment, Apple isn't a growth company. Even though its services segment is expanding, revenue declines from all of its physical products are expected to result in a low-single-digit drop in both the company's sales and profits in fiscal 2023. Despite this decline, investors are paying 26 times forward earnings. That's very close to the upper end of Apple's valuation range over the past decade, and all the more reason to avoid Apple like the plague in October.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>1 FAANG Stock That's a No-Brainer Buy in October and 1 to Avoid Like the Plague</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n1 FAANG Stock That's a No-Brainer Buy in October and 1 to Avoid Like the Plague\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-10-10 08:00 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/10/09/1-faang-stock-no-brainer-buy-in-october-1-to-avoid/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Short-term unpredictability is one of the few guarantees Wall Street brings to the table.

There's no question Google is the go-to for advertisers seeking to reach a broad audience or target their marketing campaign. Translation: Alphabet's Google possesses exceptionally strong pricing power during long-winded periods of economic expansion.While Google serves as a steady cash-flow foundation for Alphabet, it's the company's ancillary operating segments that are far more exciting for long-term investors. For instance, Google Cloud has generated an operating profit in each of the past two quarters after years of losses. Traditionally, cloud services generate considerably higher margins than advertising. If Google Cloud continues to grow by a double-digit pace, which seems feasible given that enterprise cloud spending is still in its early innings, this segment could become Alphabet's leading cash-flow driver within a couple of years.Don't overlook YouTube, either. The introduction of Shorts (short-form videos often lasting less than 60 seconds) has ballooned viewership and created new advertising opportunities. YouTube trails only Facebook as the world's most-visited social site.Lastly, Alphabet's valuation is historically cheap, which makes its stock ripe for the picking. As of the closing bell on Oct. 3, 2023, shares of Alphabet could be purchased for just below 20 times forward-year earnings and roughly 14 times forward-year cash flow. Over the past five years, Alphabet has averaged a valuation of 25 times forward-year earnings and 18 times forward-year cash flow.The FAANG stock to avoid like the plague in October: AppleHowever, not all of the FAANG stocks are positioned to be winners in the coming quarters. The FAANG stock I'd suggest avoiding like the plague in October is none other than the United States' largest publicly traded company by market cap, Apple.To be perfectly clear, I'm not saying Apple is a bad company. It's a dominant force, domestically, in smartphones, and CEO Tim Cook is overseeing the very successful transformation of Apple into a platforms company. Focusing on a variety of subscription services should minimize the sales lumpiness often associated with major physical product replacement cycles, as well as lift Apple's operating margin over the long run.It should also be noted that Apple has an exceptionally loyal customer base and well-recognized brand. The trustworthiness of the Apple brand and its management team is one of the core reasons why billionaire investor Warren Buffett has nearly 47% of Berkshire Hathaway's $337 billion investment portfolio tied up in Apple stock.But it's not all peaches and cream for the world's top tech company.For instance, iPhone 14 failed to wow consumers or investors. Modest initial sales caused Apple to rethink its plan to boost production last year. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2023 (Apple's fiscal year ends in late September), iPhone sales are down almost $6.1 billion, relative to the comparable period in fiscal 2022. It's a similar story for the remainder of the company's physical products. Mac sales have been hit hardest (down 24%), while iPad (down 1%) and wearable, home, and accessories (down 3%) sales are modestly lower through nine months.Apple also looks to be somewhat dropping the ball when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). In June, the company unveiled its augmented reality device known as the Vision Pro. Apple was expected to deliver 1 million units of this practically $3,500 headset in 2024. However, a report from Financial Times, based on internal sources, now suggests Apple is targeting just 400,000 headsets next year. But perhaps most damning of all is Apple's valuation. For more than a half-decade leading up to the end of fiscal 2018, shares of Apple could be purchased for roughly 10 to 15 times forward earnings. What made the company so attractive is that it consistently grew sales by a double-digit percentage.As of this very moment, Apple isn't a growth company. Even though its services segment is expanding, revenue declines from all of its physical products are expected to result in a low-single-digit drop in both the company's sales and profits in fiscal 2023. Despite this decline, investors are paying 26 times forward earnings. That's very close to the upper end of Apple's valuation range over the past decade, and all the more reason to avoid Apple like the plague in October.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":99,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9960070902,"gmtCreate":1668038439606,"gmtModify":1676538001385,"author":{"id":"3577750033641589","authorId":"3577750033641589","name":"Teokt","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577750033641589","authorIdStr":"3577750033641589"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share your opinion about this news…","listText":"Share your opinion about this news…","text":"Share your opinion about this news…","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9960070902","repostId":"1130353366","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1130353366","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1668037183,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1130353366?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-10 07:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"After-Hours Movers: Rivian, Unity, Beyond Meat, Bumble, Coupang and More","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1130353366","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Rivian – Shares of the electric vehicle maker gained 7.2% after the company reported a smaller per-s","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Rivian</b> – Shares of the electric vehicle maker gained 7.2% after the company reported a smaller per-share loss than expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.
