Here is what Polen Capital said:

“The leading contributors during the quarter were Microsoft, Adobe, and Facebook. We typically cite only the top three but want to highlight that these companies, as well as Tencent and Alphabet (our fourth and fifth leading contributors), are each benefiting from consumers spending more time at home. We have written extensively about Microsoft, Adobe and Tencent in prior commentaries. Each continues to see strong demand for their platforms. In the case of Alphabet, YouTube and Google Cloud Platform, now driving more than 50% of the company’s total sales growth, are seeing an increase in demand.”
