Facebook is now Meta, so the acronyms have to change.
So MAANG. Add in Oracle at the end and you've got yourself a MAANGO!
Oh cmon, MANGA is so much better
Or maybe we just need a new company beginning with an F?
I vote for Foot Locker
All Foot Locker has to do is start selling exclusive NFTs with their shoes, and they'll be considered an innovative blockchain company in no time.
Fugazzi MAMMA
Google is Alphabet tho, so its MAAMA or MAMAA.
MAMAA is by far my favorite, it sounds like a child crying out to mom. Mamaa! (also easy to add another m or a if ever needed - mammaaaaaa!)
Pop Netflix back in there from the FAANG, and you have MAMANA
It's MAAAM!
Or TAAAMM. Companies with hug TAMs.

Meta
And actually Google is now Alphabet, so it would be one of:

AAAMM

MAMAA

AMAMA

etc

Meta?
N is for Netflix. Microsoft is hardly relevant.
Yeah the 2.25T company is less relevant than a movie and TV studio that is worth 1/12th as much. /s
Haha... that was a good one, you ALMOST got me there :-)
2 trillion dollar company hardly relevant
By this "logic" FAANG should contain Saudi Aramco and probably Tesla: https://companiesmarketcap.com/

Instead, the name was always related to high growth + high salaries + innovative technonogy + interesting companies to be working for.
