$200 Club on Sale: Which Stock Deserves a Buy Now?
$NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ plunged sharply, as employment data and renewed AI hype added fuel to a pullback triggered by the ongoing government shutdown.
White House advisor David Sacks stated that he would not support OpenAI’s request for government funding, adding that “the U.S. has at least five major tech giants — if one collapses, it’s not a big deal.”
He also noted that Stargate has already provided OpenAI and Oracle with massive orders and funding, implying that further support might be excessive.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman once said:
“A lot of people are going to lose a lot of money. We don’t know who — but many others will make a lot too.”
In the AI era, which company will emerge as the ultimate winner?
Among “$200 Club”, which stock’s drop now looks like a buying opportunity?
$Alphabet(GOOG)$ AI Strategy: Integration Across the Entire Value Chain
Google recently announced it will roll out its seventh-generation TPU, codenamed Ironwood, in the coming weeks. Google remains the only AI giant that possesses a full-stack capability — Model (Gemini) + Compute (Google Cloud) + Chip (TPU).
This vertical integration gives Google maximum flexibility and cost control, creating a formidable moat that’s difficult for competitors to breach.
When ChatGPT first appeared, the market worried that Google’s core search business might be disrupted — and that AI search could cost up to 5x more than traditional search, severely eroding profits.
But two years later, sentiment has shifted. Google’s AI-powered search (AI Overviews) has actually boosted user retention, and its gross margin impact has been minimal — only dipping from 90% to roughly 86%.
$Apple(AAPL)$ — Betting on “Embodied Intelligence” as the Next Growth Engine
Morgan Stanley believes that embodied intelligence could become Apple’s next major growth driver. If Apple captures just a neutral 9% market share by 2040, its humanoid robotics segment could generate $133 billion in annual revenue, and up to $300 billion in a bullish scenario — potentially adding as much as $65 per share to its stock price.
Apple is rapidly advancing its robotics product development, supply chain, and team structure, positioning robots as the next big narrative after the iPhone.
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ — Building Its AI Muscle with “Rainier” Supercomputer
Amazon signed a $38 billion cloud service deal with OpenAI, marking a major vote of confidence in its cloud business — especially after past setbacks like service outages and market share losses.
Amazon has made significant progress in its AI push. Its “Rainier” supercomputer, powered by nearly 500,000 Trainium2 chips, has officially gone online.
Analysts estimate this growing demand could add billions in incremental revenue by 2026. Following its strong earnings report, Amazon’s stock jumped over 12%.
Discussion
Among $200 club, who has the best shot at hitting $300 by year-end — Google, Amazon, or Apple?
Has the market overreacted to recent tech stock corrections, or are these the first cracks of an AI valuation bubble?
Who is the best buy now?

Why Google leads?
Gemini + Google Cloud + TPU chip = unmatched vertical integration.
TPU Ironwood is a leap in efficiency & scalability, giving Google cost control & architectural flexibility.
Unlike Apple which is consumer first or Amazon which is retail/cloud hybrid, Google's AI stack is purpose built for scale & monetisation.
This integration reduces dependency on 3rd party chips. It also enables faster iteration and deployment across its products - Search, Ads and Workspace.
This creates a moat that is both technical and economic.
Amazon has upside but lacks chip level control while Apple's AI story is still emerging, more tied to device upgrades and ecosystem stickiness.
Google is the most compelling buy among the 3 especially for AI exposure with infrastructure depth.

Among the $200 Club, I favor $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ . Its full-stack AI ecosystem — Gemini, Cloud, and TPU — gives it unmatched control and efficiency. Despite initial fears, AI-powered search hasn’t hurt margins, showing strong adaptability. Google is executing steadily while maintaining strong profitability and innovation speed.
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ is also attractive after its OpenAI cloud deal and new Rainier supercomputer launch, while Apple’s $Apple(AAPL)$ robotics story is still early. My bet for the next $300 stock? Definitely Google — it has both near-term momentum and long-term AI leadership.
@Tiger_comments @TigerStars
Alphabet (GOOG) is a solid long-term investment with strong AI and cloud growth potential, but faces short-term risks from competition and regulation
Amazon (AMZN) stands out with its AWS dominance and AI focus, offering upside in AWS and advertising, though retail and logistics pressures add volatility
Apple (AAPL) is stable with strong services growth, making it the safest bet, but lacks the rapid upside potential driven by hardware reliance and has a lower likelihood of hitting $300 without new innovations
The recent correction in tech stocks likely reflects an overreaction to AI hype, though macroeconomic factors like rising rates also create uncertainty
Ultimately, each stock has its strengths depending on personal investment horizon and risk tolerance

Has the market overreacted to recent tech stock corrections, or are these the first cracks of an AI valuation bubble?: I would really like yo think this was a temporary blip and that things would improve sooner rather than later. But considering huge shorts are at play on the majority AI players, we could expect some pain in the short run. And the 🐍 & 🪜 game would be stable all through Trump's tenure.
Who is the best buy now?: Given the present situation. amongst the three, Alphabet seems good to me.
科技回调看起来更像是早期的纪律,而不是崩溃。泡沫还没有破裂——只是在几个月的兴奋之后的多次压缩。这是一个“证明你的利润”阶段。
现在买百思买?亚马逊仍然在风险回报方面表现最好。GOOG紧随其后。AAPL是镇流器,而不是马力。
Yes, likely both market overreaction and the first cracks of an AI valuation bubble.
Best buy would be google - good growth and strong profitability
Check them in the history - “community distribution“
It has a larger variety of assets on hand to come up with a drastically better AI driven product (rather than some frail, copyright infringing LLM)
The full-stack production is a good example, looking at Apple making efficient chips that run their iphone software. Google should learn to optimise efficiency, cashing in on the tech aspect and the sustainability aspect.
以上次收盘价278.83美元计算,谷歌仅需7.6%即可达到300美元大关。
苹果 $苹果(AAPL)$ 自上次收于268.47美元以来,还需要11.7%才能达到300美元。
亚马逊 $亚马逊(AMZN)$
还需要22.7%才能达到300美元,收盘价为244.41美元。
在动荡的市场中,它青睐现金充裕、有实际盈利的公司。谷歌的广告业务仍然占据主导地位。
护城河重型球员与防守技术。谷歌的全栈垂直整合很难被击败。
这就是为什么谷歌不仅是最接近300美元大关的公司,而且最有可能在年底前率先达到300美元大关。

Some say we are in a bubble. Others say we are in an AI revolution. I say we are in a pause before the climb. A moment of reflection before the next ascent.
Tech stocks pulled back but not collapsed - a recalibration, not a rout.
AI leaders like $Alphabet(GOOG)$ $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Microsoft(MSFT)$ still show strong fundamentals & demand.
Bond yields peaked, inflation is cooling & rate cuts are on the horizon.
I believe that this is a golden opportunity to go bargain hunting. The most undervalued of the Magnificent 7 is $Amazon.com(AMZN)$. It delivered an amazing Q3 25 results with AWS growth accelerating & advertising revenue surging.
Amazon is the quiet compounder. Slow and Steady Wins the Race

白宮顧問David Sacks表示,他不會支持OpenAI的政府資助請求,並補充說“美國至少有五家主要科技巨頭——如果其中一家倒閉,也沒什麼大不了的。”
整体来看,我认为这波调整更多是情绪修正而非泡沫破裂。AI的浪潮不会停,只是赢家的名单,正在被市场重新洗牌。
2. i think good opportunity to buy tech stock has monopoly the sub sector
3. semiconductor stock because everything dont run whitout semiconductor, include cryptocurrency is dont run
