Alpha Score of 65 reflects moderate overall profile with weak momentum, strong value, strong quality, weak sentiment.
Alphabet shares fell 7.13% to $317.69 after the company raised capex guidance, overshadowing a quarter that beat revenue and profit estimates. Cloud revenue cleared $11 billion, up 17.4% from a year ago. Net margins hit 37.9%, and EPS grew 48.5% year over year. The selloff pushed the stock deeper into its 52-week range, now 21% off the February high of $402.62. The Alpha Score of 62 reflects a split profile: quality at 93.1 and value at 71 are strong, but momentum stands at 45.6 and sentiment at 36.6. The capex increase signals heavier spending on AI infrastructure, a pattern investors have punished across big tech this earnings season. Next week, the July Fed meeting and a slate of rival cloud earnings will test whether the selloff is a one-day reaction or the start of a broader rotation out of AI spenders.
GOOGL fell 1.38% to $347.15, tracking a broader S&P 500 dip as Brent crude topped $95 a barrel and traders trimmed risk ahead of Alphabet's Q2 earnings. The stock sits 13.8% off its 52-week high of $402.62, with the P/E at 26.35 — a premium that looks more defensible given 48.5% EPS growth and a 37.9% net margin. The Alpha Score of 71.2 is dragged by sentiment (48.8) and momentum (67.9), but quality (93.1) and value (71) hold up. Revenue growth of 17.4% keeps the top-line story intact. The next test is earnings: a miss on cloud or ad revenue would test the $330 support zone. Watch for forward guidance on AI capex and cloud margins.
Alphabet shares rose 1.5% to $351.99 on Tuesday, within 12% of the 52-week high set in February. A report highlighting Google's race with Reddit and Yelp to build AI-powered shopping recommendations added to the bullish narrative. The stock's Alpha Score of 70 masks a split: quality scores at 93.1, while sentiment sits at 49.1. Revenue growth of 17.4% and net margin of 37.9% support the quality reading. The next catalyst is the April 29 earnings report, where analysts expect first-quarter revenue of $89.5 billion.
Alphabet shares fell 4.44% to $354.46, sliding from near their 52-week high of $402.62. The move came after reports that Gemini 3.5 Pro is months behind schedule, with internal disagreements and coding quality issues slowing the release. The stock still trades at 27x earnings, with revenue up 17.4% and net margins at 37.9%. The quality sub-score of 93.1 remains strong, but the sentiment score at 48.6 reflects growing skepticism around AI product timelines. Momentum has cooled to 62.9 from higher levels earlier this year. Next week's focus: whether management addresses the Gemini timeline at any upcoming investor events. A clear roadmap could stabilize the stock near current levels. Another delay without explanation would test support around $340.
Alphabet shares rose 3.17% to $370.92, pushing the stock closer to its 52-week high of $402.62. The move followed news that Google Cloud will resell Parallel Web Systems' AI search to Gemini customers. The $2 billion startup, backed by Sequoia and Khosla, adds to Google's AI offerings. The stock trades at 27.14 times earnings, with EPS of $13.11. Revenue grew 17.4% year over year, while EPS jumped 48.5%. Net margin stands at 37.9%. The Alpha Score of 76 reflects momentum at 77.2, quality at 93.1, value at 70.5, and sentiment at 59.5. The stock has gained 113% from its 52-week low of $174.36 and sits 7.9% below its high. The next catalyst is likely the Q3 earnings report, where cloud revenue growth and AI deal contributions will be in focus.
Alphabet reported second-quarter revenue of $92.7 billion, up 14% from a year earlier, driven by a 32% jump in Google Cloud revenue to $12.4 billion. Google Services revenue rose 11% to $67.3 billion, with Search and YouTube advertising each growing 12%. Operating income climbed to $30.2 billion from $27.4 billion, and net income reached $25.6 billion, up from $23.6 billion. The company held $95.4 billion in cash and marketable securities at quarter-end. Alphabet also disclosed it faces ongoing antitrust investigations in the U.S. and abroad, including the DOJ's search distribution case and an EU probe into Google AdTech practices.
Alphabet filed an 8-K on July 22, 2026, announcing its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The company issued a press release and held a conference call the same day. CFO Anat Ashkenazi signed the filing. Alphabet noted it is using non-GAAP financial measures in both the release and the call, with reconciliations to GAAP figures included in the attached press release.
Alphabet Inc. held its annual meeting on June 5, 2026. Shareholders voted on 14 items. The amended and restated 2021 Stock Plan passed, adding 200 million shares of Class C capital stock to the reserve. All 10 director nominees were elected, including Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Sundar Pichai. Ernst & Young was ratified as the independent auditor for fiscal 2026. The advisory vote on executive compensation passed with roughly 9.99 billion votes in favor and 2.33 billion against. All nine shareholder-sponsored proposals failed. The proposals covered topics including enhanced climate goal disclosure, water usage tied to AI development, equal shareholder voting, viewpoint diversity risk, politicized content moderation, U.S. immigration policy impact, data privacy, AI board oversight, AI-generated misinformation reporting, and AI data usage oversight. None received majority support. The proposal on equal shareholder voting drew the largest yes vote among shareholder items, with about 3.85 billion for and 8.5 billion against. The lowest support went to a viewpoint diversity risk report, with just 19.2 million votes in favor.
Alphabet Inc. filed an 8-K on June 5, 2026, reporting the completion of a significant capital raise through the issuance of mandatory convertible preferred stock. On June 2, 2026, Alphabet entered into an underwriting agreement to sell 167.5 million Series A depositary shares and 167.5 million Series B depositary shares, each representing a 1/20th interest in a share of 6.25% Series A and Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively. The underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment options on June 3, 2026, purchasing an additional 25 million depositary shares of each series. The offerings closed on June 5, 2026. In connection with the pricing and the over-allotment exercise, Alphabet entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with the underwriters or their affiliates to reduce potential dilution upon conversion of the preferred stock. The cap price for the Series A capped calls is initially $532.6704 per share of Class A common stock, and for the Series B capped calls is initially $527.7974 per share of Class C capital stock. The preferred stock carries a 6.25% annual dividend rate on the $1,000 per share liquidation preference, payable quarterly starting August 15, 2026, through May 15, 2029. Unless earlier converted, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into between 2.2520 and 2.8160 shares of Class A common stock, and each share of Series B Preferred Stock will convert into between 2.2740 and 2.8420 shares of Class C capital stock, on or about May 15, 2029. The filing also notes that the certificates of designations for the preferred stock were filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on June 4, 2026, establishing the preferences, limitations, and relative rights of each series.
On June 5, 2026, Alphabet Inc. filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce the appointment of Marsida Saraci as its Principal Accounting Officer, effective immediately. Ms. Saraci, age 47, has been with Alphabet since April 2011, most recently serving as Vice President, Finance - Deputy Controller. Prior to joining Alphabet, she spent over eight years at KPMG. In connection with her appointment, she will receive two grants of restricted stock units (GSUs): one award of $280,000 vesting in 1/20th monthly increments beginning in July 2026, and a second award of $440,000 vesting in 1/32nd monthly increments beginning in July 2026. The number of GSUs for each award will be determined by dividing the award amount by the average closing price of Alphabet's Class C capital stock during June 2026. Vested GSUs entitle the grantee to receive one share of Class C capital stock per unit. The GSUs are subject to Alphabet's Amended and Restated 2021 Stock Plan and the applicable award agreement. This filing does not report any financial results, changes in guidance, or other material operational events.
