Question

A November 2021 article in The Motley Fool jokingly suggested a version of this term that evokes a song by Italian composer Piero Umiliani associated with the Muppets. This term is sometimes followed by the term “MULA”, spelled M-U-L-A. In October 2021, a name change led to a spate of tweets and articles suggesting an alternative version of this term, which were sometimes accompanied by pictures of Is the Order A Rabbit? and Sailor Moon. Mad Money host (*) Jim Cramer coined the first incarnation of this term in 2013, which had a double meaning of suggesting the potential to “take a bite (-5[1])out of” the bear market. A fifth letter was added to this term (-5[1])in 2017 (10[1])after a good earnings (10[1])report from Apple. For (10[1])10 points, name any popular variant of this abbreviation that usually refers to five large tech companies. ■END■ (10[2])
