Jeffrey Cole, a USC researcher, ranked four major tech giants—Meta, Apple, Alphabet, and Amazon—by their vulnerability to decline. He considers Meta the most at risk, citing legal troubles and declining free cash flow, while Amazon is seen as the strongest due to diversified growth and solid financials. The stock market appears to agree, with Meta's shares falling sharply and Amazon's remaining relatively stable. This ranking highlights ongoing challenges and competition these tech giants face in the evolving digital landscape.
