The $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ fell 1.42 per cent on Thursday and the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ declined 0.30 per cent. $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ closed down 4.25 per cent and fell about another 7 per cent after its results. Microsoft slipped just 0.16 per cent, while Meta gained 1.96 per cent. Companies making large AI investments were no longer trading as one group. Amazon reported third-quarter revenue of $201.9 billion, up 12 per cent, and earnings of $1.89 a share. AWS revenue grew 39 per cent to $46.0 billion, while operating income rose 55 per cent to $17.8 billion. The issue was cash generation: trailing 12-month free cash flow s

Alphabet just suffered its worst one-day percentage decline ever. Roughly 12.6% gone. About $500B of market value erased. And the contradiction inside the earnings report was extraordinary. Google Cloud revenue: +103% to $30.7B. Cloud backlog: $561B Yet Alphabet's free cash flow: NEGATIVE $9.1B. How can a company double its fastest-growing major business and simultaneously start burning cash? The obvious answer is: Alphabet is spending too much on AI. That is partly true. But I think it misses something much more interesting. Google is quietly changing what kind of company it is. And one clue buried inside the quarter explains why its cash-flow profile may never look exactly like old Google again. That clue is: TPU SYSTEMS. 🔵 OLD GOOGLE HAD A BEAUTIFUL BUSINESS MODEL For years, Alphabet's

Alphabet’s latest earnings report presents one of the biggest contradictions in the current AI investment cycle. Google Cloud revenue more than doubled, operating income increased substantially, and demand for AI infrastructure appears exceptionally strong. Yet investors sent the stock down 12.64% on Thursday. Why did such impressive cloud growth trigger such a negative market reaction? The answer lies in the difference between growing a business and generating cash from that growth. Alphabet is investing enormous amounts of money to strengthen its position in AI. It is building data centres, purchasing advanced chips, expanding computing capacity and developing AI products. These investments may create significant long-term opportunities, but the financial cost is becoming increasingly di

$Alphabet(GOOG)$  latest quarterly results highlight one of the biggest questions facing the technology sector: how much should investors tolerate today in exchange for potential AI growth tomorrow? For months, Big Tech companies have been competing to build larger data centres, secure advanced chips and expand their AI capabilities. The market initially rewarded this spending as evidence that these companies were positioning themselves for long-term growth. However, investors are becoming more selective. Strong revenue growth is no longer enough. They want to see whether AI investment can eventually translate into sustainable profits and free cash flow. Alphabet’s latest results demonstrate why this debate is becoming more important. Sh

The divergence we are seeing between Google (Alphabet) $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ $Alphabet(GOOG)$ and the broader semiconductor sector highlights a massive shift in how the market views the AI food chain. When chip stocks face "carnage" due to cyclical fears, capacity constraints, or valuation corrections, Google is increasingly viewed as a structural safe haven. Safe Haven or Core Moat? It is a mix of both, but the core moat is what enables the safe-haven status. Berkshire Hathaway’s massive $10 billion private placement anchoring an $80+ billion equity raise—spearheaded by new CEO Greg Abel—is the ultimate institutional stamp of approval. Why are they hiding out in Google while chipmakers bleed? Insulation fro

$Alphabet(GOOG)$  go buy Google, this one hor can confirm win one[Cool]  

Buy buy buy...investing for supermarket run next year

Thank you very much much appreciated

$GOOG$  google always wins up just little rest huh 

*Google Stays Strong Amid Chip Carnage: New AI Safe Haven?* While chip stocks like Micron fell on order-cut fears, Google/Alphabet stayed stable. Why? Google doesn’t just sell chips - it sells AI services: Search, Cloud, YouTube ads. *Example*: If NVIDIA drops 10% due to fear, Google might drop 2% because investors trust its AI profits are already flowing in. Buffett’s $10B bet on AI software over chip hardware shows this idea: buy the “picks and shovels users”, not just the “shovel makers”. Less risky in chip cycles, but still not “safe”. No stock is.

$Alphabet(GOOGL)$  now it's AI time and Google is bullish. Forward PE looks reasonable. Compare to$Apple(AAPL)$  it's more reasonable

Yes, I’d rotate some capital from crowded AI hardware into cloud/software, but not abandon chips completely. The cleanest setup is GOOG: it has cloud acceleration, AI deployment, Search monetisation, and still trades cheaper than the quality of its assets suggests. MSFT is the safer fortress, AMZN is the AWS recovery play, and ORCL is the higher-beta infrastructure bet. I’d buy GOOG on pullbacks first, then MSFT/AMZN, while keeping chip exposure smaller and more selective. #GOOG #GOOGL #MSFT #AMZN #AI #Cloud #GoogleCloud #TechStocks

*Alphabet Surges Against the Tide: Who’s Undervalued in Cloud?* ☁️ While most tech sold off, $GOOGL/Google Cloud popped. GCP growth beat expectations again and investors finally stopped treating it like “the 3rd place cloud”. So now everyone’s asking: if Alphabet is surging, who’s still undervalued in cloud? *1. $MSFT Azure* Microsoft Cloud isn’t sexy, but it prints cash. Azure + AI integration with Copilot is sticky with enterprises. Market sees it as “expensive but safe”. If GCP can rerate higher, Azure should too. Still trades cheaper than its growth vs AWS. *2. $AMZN AWS* AWS is the cash cow funding everything at Amazon. Growth slowed, but margins are expanding and AI inference workloads are coming back to AWS. Market’s punishing AMZN for retail, not cloud. At these levels you’re basic
