In the following video, Motley Fool tech and telecom analyst Andrew Tonner breaks down what we saw come out of the earnings reports from Google (GOOG +0.33%) and Apple (AAPL 2.29%) this quarter. Google demonstrated that it was able to stably grow its cost-per-click figure and had a strong surge after earnings were released, whereas Apple didn't hit analysts' expectations and experienced a big sell-off today. Andrew tells us which of these stocks he would prefer to pick up at the moment at these prices.
