FANTA or FANTAsy (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Tesla and Alphabet)

“FANTA” or “FANTAsy” stocks are the technology companies of Facebook, Amazon, Netflix Tesla and Alphabet. “Try NAFTA (Netflix Amazon Facebook Tesla Alphabet) or FANTA” was cited on Twitter on November 16, 2015. “FANTA = Facebook + Amazon + Netflix + Tesla + Alphabet” was cited on Twitter on December 29, 2015. “FANTAsy stocks (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Tesla, and Alphabet)” was coined by the financial blog Zero Hedge on January 4, 2015.
 
“FANG” is a similar acronym that stands for Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google. “FAANG” stands for Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google. “MAGS” stands for Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Salesforce. “NOSH” stands for Nike, O’Reilly, Starbucks and Home Depot.
 
“MAGA” (Microsoft, Apple, Google and Amazon) is similar to the “MAGA” slogan popularized by Donald Trump in his 2016 presidential campaign, “Make America Great Again.”

FANTAsy Stocks Are Flailing In Pre-Market
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/04/2016 09:15 -0500
It appears the FANTAsy stocks (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Tesla, and Alphabet) are suffering this morning as investors choose not to rush to the safety of triple-digit P/E ratios amid the market’s collapse. Tesla is tumbling on burning-car concerns and Netflix is dropping after another downgrade. The rest are all ugly as it seems faith in FANTAsy is failing…
