It was an incredibly busy stretch for earnings announcements, especially in the technology sector. With this in mind, Maddy and Ryan decided to take a special approach to reviewing the latest reports from the market’s tech giants.

Results were mixed across the board, but overall, the foundations of these businesses remain strong. But which one FAANG stock stood out to Maddy and Ryan? Make sure to listen to the show to hear more!
