That's if they are not ambitious. Might also be trying to become the new Google, or at least put the O in MANFANGO.

Lol I did always wonder how Netflix qualified for FAANG but little ol' Microsoft didn't.

FAANG was coined by Jim Cramer, a stock pundit. It was the five biggest tech earners that year. Microsoft was flat which is why it wasn't there, while Netflix was the single biggest gainer in the S&P500 that year.

It has nothing to do with tech, salary, talent, or anything like it. It's purely based on stock growth in 2012/2013.

Jesus, can we find a phrase like "tech giants", rather than changing the acronym according to the stock market?

I typically use "F100" or "F500" to refer to the space of all large corporations. This feels to me like a happy blend between explicit naming and including everyone with an LLC.

I think the difference there is that FAANG+ refers explicitly to tech companies, rather than things like Exxon or whatnot.
