By all means sell Google and buy Exxon. Check back with us in 10 years about how that went.

> Exxon's better reflect the value of the underlying assets.

That's like valuing a car based on the price of the steel it contains instead of where it can take you.

I am actually going to try to track this (and I don't mean that in a bad way). I am honestly curious about this over the next 10 years.


You don't really have to track it. Just set a google calendar event for 10 years from now, and look back at the stock history then.

If somehow google services go away and you don't get that event reminder, the question may be moot by then... not really, but an interesting thought anyways.

Note that the expected growth of Google relative to Exxon is already priced into their market caps.
