Google Glass Metaverse Big Fat FAIL!

Companies / Google Dec 16, 2021 - 04:41 PM GMT

I am really disappointed with Google given that they were ahead of the curve some 8 years ago with Google Glass, but then effectively put it it all onto the back burner with nothing much heard of since 2019. So it looks like Google could have blown it as they were really on the cusps of producing something that could have been huge but after 5 years of trying to make it work it appears the technology was just not good enough at the time and it looks like they gave up, maybe they are still quietly working on Google Glass in the depths of Google Labs to one day make a big reveal?

Trying to find signs of life reveals that Google bought a Canadian AR glasses startup NORTH in mid 2020, so we may finally see a working version of Google Glass during 2022 to give competition to Apple and Facebook who are also working on AR headsets.

In terms of the stock price, my buying level is at $2625 and I actually sold 2/5ths of my Google holding on Monday 22nd November which now means Intel is my largest holdings. Why did I sell? We'll It's a one trick pony, adsense. So far I am not seeing the other investments paying off big time, though youtube continues to grow share of earnings. Though many creators are hedging their bets / livelihoods by also posting their content elsewhere as youtube is increasingly becoming averse to posting any controversial material on their platform such as anything negative about the covid vaccinations that immediately results content removal, warnings and threats of channel deletion. I expect this trend to continue for youtube to be continually watered down so as to avoid attracting regulatory interest.

if Google fell to it's buying level of $2625 I would buy that which I just sold, and if it fell to $2100 I would buy a lot more! Presently looks like correcting down towards it's buying level. It's PE at 28 is not overly expensive in historic terms i.e. tends to range between 36 and 23.

The bottom line is Google is primary so I expect it to come roaring back into AIR with a new version of Google Glass.
