$Alphabet-C (GOOG.US)$ $Alphabet-A (GOOGL.US)$ is up 67% ytd. $Apple (AAPL.US)$ is up 32.4% ytd. $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$ is up 52.5%.
The key is buying tech stock not some random garbage with a database calling itself tech.

The SEC's oversight of tech companies is limited. While platforms rely on "free" products to capture more users, resulting in network effects that enable them to monetize across all products and services, financial regulators have focused primarily on specific financial disclosures. This has allowed big tech companies to mask market forces, boost margins, and extend the dominance of their platforms in unfair ways.
