I think that stock market right now is HEAVILY manipulated and current stock prices aren't even near accurate. And when i say manipulated, I don't mean something evil and secretive, I am referring to current FED and zero interest rate policy. That doesn't mean that what you are saying issn't true, I also believe that Google and Facebook will emerge from this crisis in good shape. BUT they are likely to lose a shitload of advertisers and businesses are shutting down and fighting for survival.

It's not manipulated, simply the anticipated inflation due to zero interest rates and QE has already happened. It has been confined to the top of the financial pyramid only in the form of the asset bubble however.

Eventually the inflation will leak to the Main Street, and that event will correct the asset prices by pricing them against the inflated goods in inflated dollars.

Have you not been watching the stock market for the past three weeks?
