I sure didn’t want what happened to occur, at least not during my vacation, of all things. But it did, and we have to deal with the fallout head-on because it came as such a surprise to many. Imagine for a moment there were five geese — Amazon , Alphabet , Microsoft , Meta Platforms , and Apple — and they were laying golden eggs like mad.
