Alphabet's Stock Is a Must Buy Before July 22
Yahoo Finance ·
Alphabet ( GOOG 2.17% ) ( GOOGL 2.05% ) has a major event coming up: its second-quarter earnings report. This is one of the few times investors get each year to peek under the hood of a business, and with Alphabet delivering strong results in Q1 2026, investors want to see if it can back them up in the second quarter. I think the stock is a must-buy before the company reports earnings, as there are some things that could cause the stock to skyrocket. The biggest thing I'll be watching is Alphabet's cloud computing growth . Cloud computing is becoming a huge part of Alphabet's business, with Google Cloud emerging as one of the top platforms to build and run artificial intelligence (AI) models on. Last quarter, revenue soared 63% to $20 billion. That blew expectations out of the water, and I'm confident Alphabet will do it again this quarter. Alphabet is spending hundreds of billions on data center construction to meet demand. However, it still doesn't have enough to fulfill it all. Another reason Google Cloud will experience growth is the sales of its custom TPUs. These custom chips offer competitive advantages over GPUs in some applications, and Alphabet is starting to sell them to select clients. This is an entirely new part of its business that emerged last quarter, and it could grow to become an even larger part over the next few years. A booming cloud computing revenue growth rate will confirm the AI build-out thesis and convey an all-is-well message to investors. On the flip side, if cloud growth is slow, it could sound an alarm among investors.
AI 시장 분석
Alphabet is set to report its Q2 earnings on July 22, with the growth of Google Cloud, which reached $20 billion in revenue last quarter, being the key highlight. Increased data center investment and rising sales of custom TPUs, driven by surging demand for AI models, are expected to bolster performance. Investors should view these results as an opportunity to reaffirm Alphabet's AI infrastructure competitiveness and evaluate future stock price momentum.
상승 영향
- AI — Explosive demand for building AI models on Google Cloud has led to 63% revenue growth. Data center expansion and proprietary TPU sales strengthen its competitive edge in the AI infrastructure market, serving as key drivers for stock price appreciation.
- Semiconductors — Alphabet's internally developed TPUs are emerging as a viable alternative to GPUs, establishing a new revenue stream. The expansion of custom chip sales contributes to diversifying profitability and securing a technological advantage in the semiconductor space.
DYAX 전담 분석
Alphabet's growth trajectory remains heavily tied to its cloud computing expansion. With AI integration becoming central to enterprise operations, Google Cloud is positioned as a primary beneficiary. Furthermore, the strategic shift toward custom silicon is reducing reliance on external providers and improving margins within the infrastructure segment.
