$Meta Platforms (FB.US)$ $Uber Technologies (UBER.US)$ $Lyft Inc (LYFT.US)$ Practically speaking, FAANG companies remain consistent performers among the S&P 500. In the context of IoT, this is probably because FAANG companies utilize networks to secure their relevance in the market. Facebook (who’s betting on VR/AR) is an obvious example, and Google/Alphabet is dominant in the field.
In that context, a good option might be to find companies that can utilize IoT via networking, too. This is why LYFT and UBER became popular then, and I think they’re still good options nowadays with their pushes into driverless vehicles

Relative valuation: How to compare a stock's worth with its peers?
Stock valuation methods
There are 2 methods for analysts to give enterprises valuations: absolute valuation and relative valuation. How to value listed companies in different industries?
Absolute Valuation
Dividend Discount Model (DDM)
The dividend discount model(DDM) calculates the "true" value of a firm based on the dividends the company pays its shareholders.
DDM is a very effective way of valuing matured blue chip companies in well-developed industries. These companies have to pay a dividend, and the dividend is stable and predictable.
Discounted Cash Flow Model (DCF)
If the company doesn't pay a dividend or its dividend pattern is irregular, then the company should use the discounted cash flow (DCF) model.
DCF is a calculation designed to evaluate a company's current value by projecting its future free cash flows, operating costs, revenues, and growth.
But these values are easier to accurately predict with larger, more firmly established companies that have steady growth histories on which to base these projections, such as utilities, banking, and energy sectors like oil and gas.
