2. Google lin.(GOOG)
Google is the most popular search engine in the world, so it is still a good investment. I
spent $13683.62 to buy 23 shares of the stock in Google Lin. on 18-Jul-2011. During the next
few days same with Apple the shares are raising steadily, 26 July is the highest price and then the
price go down until 1 August to go up.
“Google Vulnerable: Google, the world’s largest Internet search company, aims to curb
abuses of the patent system. It’s calling on Congress and the Federal Trade Commission to
rein in lawsuits, and asking the Patent and Trademark Office to take closer looks at patents
being used in litigation.”(2011)
“Google Inc. (GOOG), facing a growing threat of intellectual-property lawsuits, acquired a
batch of patents this month from International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) to bolster
its portfolio.”(2011)
Google company has many problems arise, “The latest reports reveal that the Google has
started removing business accounts from its latest social networking platform, and the list
of removed companies include IBNLive, Ford and Mashable”.(2011) In my opinion Google
is a high risk company, their news mostly are negative news and the bad news will make
investors increasingly lost confidence in. Currently the world can use their search engine but
only China cannot use because they did not reach a consensus with China government. If they
can master the China market, maybe their share price will be higher.
