DOES GOOGLE NOT GETTING THE SAME ‘PASS’ AS AMAZON MAKE IT A BETTER INVESTMENT? $AMZN $GOOG $GOOGL $FB $AAPL $NFLX $SPY $QQQ $DJIA
Alphabet reported excellent earnings, but the stock has been hit because the company projected higher expenses.

Investors love Amazon when it says it is going to spend more money, but they don’t feel the same way about Alphabet’s spending. Interestingly, Netflix NFLX gets a reaction somewhat similar to Amazon, but Facebook FB and Apple AAPL get a reaction somewhat similar to Alphabet.
Does this different treatment make Alphabet a better investment than Amazon? Let’s examine the issue with the help of a chart.
