GOOGL

dieharddubsfan

If Anthropic continues to capture the headlines in the AI space, Amazon's value will continue to rise as well. If you want to bet on AI frontier model developers, just put your money into AMZN, GOOGL, and MSFT.

The-Jolly-Joker

I cream when I think about GOOGL

mrg1957

I have a tiny Roth. I put it in GOOGL in 2012. I'm up 1377%.

InsanelyRetarded69

Instead of marking your words how about you look at the data so you realize you’re wrong. - GOOGL has a trailing earnings multiple of 31 with the forward earnings multiple posed to be two turns lower at 29, typical for bullish earnings signals. Comparing the trailing earnings multiple of GOOGL with that of the S&P500, which is currently 27.8, GOOGL is actually a fairly priced stock. Bozo.

Hollayo

I think you're forgetting one part on your analysis. GOOG & GOOGL have a history (at least 2 years) of price runs between 6% & 12% in the 2-3 weeks prior to earnings. We're currently in that timeframe now. It was also that timeframe in Feb when the 52 week high of 349 was hit. Then the revelation of how much capex was being used, people got scared, GOOGL dropped hard in late Feb into March (along with the additional macro shit going on). Now we have the climb again in Apr. Otherwise, completely agree in being bullish on GOOGL. Looking forward to my 310 leap calls to print in a few months.

Amiable_One

GOOGL? Never heard of it. Is this company successful and profitable with a good track record and business model? 🤷‍♀️

Ill-Warning-596

So you're saying it's worth despite AAPL and GOOGL seemingly performing better?

barrel4barrel

should’ve been loading the boat sub $380 tbh… as many others have said this is the GOOGL of last year, or like getting to buy META in the $80s after the metaverse shakeup. No brainer to mid $500s imo if you like holding shares for the long term

Coloradospruce33

META, GOOGL, and AMZN are all steppin' up to the mic next week, and the street is buzzin' like a ghetto blaster. Here is the lowdown on when they is droppin' their numbers and what the clever blokes is sayin', all for **April 29, 2026**:  The Earnings Schedule (Wednesday, April 29) * **META (Meta Platforms)**: Droppin' after the market shuts. The "Moderate Buy" consensus is strong, with analysts lookin' for about **$6.65–$6.66 EPS** on roughly **$55–$56 billion** in revenue. * **GOOGL (Alphabet)**: Also steppin' up on Wednesday. Word is they're aimin' for **$2.61–$2.63 EPS** and revenue around **$92–$107 billion**. * **AMZN (Amazon)**: Final part of the trinity on April 29. They is expected to report **$1.63–$1.69 EPS** with revenue forecasts floatin' around **$177–$178.5 billion**.  Booyakasha.

>Other than saying the AI build out is a "sure thing", no one is putting out concrete growth rates for this year or next as of now. Even if substantial adoption of AI is slower than expected, the future of every technology hinges on "high compute" power. Where do you think neo-clouds came from? They are all former crypto miners who saw less reward with each BTC halving and repurposed for AI. Also these neo-clouds have older GPU's, yet every hyperscaler and frontier AI model developer is buying up all their capacity. It sort of debunks the "finanical/but non-techie person" takes that the GPU's are only useful for 3 years and the depreciation model being used over a longer timeline is bogus. All of your quants and analytics use HPC, as does drug discovery as does prior mention of blockchain. In the past quarterly earnings report, MSFT guided I believe 16% top line growth for next quarter. Your hyperscalers use subscription based model, where you contract out long term service, but only pay when the service is delivered. So your MSFT/AMZN/ORCL/GOOGL have literally hundreds of billions of backlog, typically referred to as remaining performacne obligation (RPO) - everyone who works in anything related SaaS is familar with the concept. Substantial chunks of forward revenue are already booked - I guess whether top line "disappoints" is all relative.

Puts on GOOGL because their search engine doesn’t feature a special 4/20 design like it does for other notable days...

It's tied to the MRVL/GOOGL news. It's part of the supply chain.

OptionsProOfficial

Most people who sell puts long term end up focusing on big, liquid names they’d actually be happy to own on a dip (GOOGL, AMZN, MSFT, AAPL, broad ETFs like SPY/QQQ) instead of random high-IV junk, then sizing so that assignment is a win, not a disaster. If you’re serious about that 1k/month goal, our OptionsPro Suite is built for exactly this use case: tracking every CSP, seeing what tickers and DTE windows actually work for you over time, and making sure you’re getting paid to buy stocks you want, at prices you chose, instead of just chasing the fattest number on the options chain.

Jagged_Tide

And therefore bullish for $GOOGL

Coloradospruce33

The whales buying billions worth of MSFT, META, GOOGL, AMD, ORCL etc give ZERO shits about the latest in Iran. They are buying because these companies had fallen up to 40% and it was a historic sell off.

Visible_Ad_2271

After last weeks Bers celebrate -0.7% Futes on a Sunday lmfaoooooooo this market is so insanely bullish it‘s crazy. Can‘t wait for April 29th when MSFT, GOOGL, AMZN and META report at the same time 🚀🚀

if you know how to check put call daily volume on optioncharts you wouldn't miss all these green warning: It's a LOT of CALLs, MSFT, GOOGL, AAPL, you name it

tanasescu1988

Amazon owns 30% of Anthropic. Anthropic went from 0 to 14B in three years (this took Salesforce 20 yrs, ServiceNow 21 yrs). Anthropics entire run-rate is going straight to AWS. AWS increases infrastructure letting Anthropic continue to grow. Etc. Both GOOGL and AMZN are great bets atm

Ok and? This is post is so pointless and I say this as someone with 1,100 shares of GOOGL

Recent gold rise, 2026 would be war stocks, Liberation day rebounds (did get on GOOGL at least, but I had AAPL and NVIDIA positions I exited too early because they had delayed recovery)

mtnrnnr802

Idk man, I loaded up on MSFT and GOOGL leaps a couple weeks ago and I’m feeling quite good

PooPooPointBoiz

So how tf does a place like the bay area or seattle not get smoked when all these lay offs happen? This isn't laying off minimum wage burger flippers. This is laying off 200-300k jobs that absolutely were pumping money back into the local economy. Between META and AMZN going hard on layoffs, and likely MSFT and GOOGL laying off at lower rates, it seems like a TON of people have lost their jobs and their good paying careers.

RealFunBobby

Be careful for what you get into. I have gained pretty well from GOOGL and AAPL LEAPS but lost quite a bit in MSFT.

greenpride32

I don't see the point of comparing QQQ to DGRO - they have different investment objectives; one growth and one income. But QQQ absolutely crushes DGRO in return, so what does it matter on the SFV metric? You'd buy QQQ if you are young and don't need the money until decades out. You'd buy DGRO if you need your investments to generate income; typically for later in the life cycle. Also you can just buy RSP ETF (SP500 equal weight) if you are concerned about high concentration. Historically it's pretty close to SPY/VOO returns. But more recently with big gains from NVDA GOOGL AVGO, the weighted index has done better.

SkepticalInvestor21

Looking at your portfolio, you've got good diversification across tech and space/satellite companies. Before throwing $20k into any single position, I'd suggest running your existing holdings through a due diligence scan first - especially EchoStar (SATS) since that's a smaller player in the satellite space. For new positions with that amount, consider adding some defensive value to balance out your growth-heavy tech portfolio. Maybe split between a solid dividend aristocrat and doubling down on GOOGL if you believe in their AI moat. The key is making sure any single position doesn't become more than 10-15% of your total portfolio. What's your total portfolio size? That'll help determine if $20k in one stock creates concentration risk.

meemeemoomoo5

ok fair point. Honestly in the future I think just mentioning without additional context will probably yield better result. That being said, it's a risky play. Their main bulk is in SpaceX and TSLA. SpaceX valuation at 2trillion puts the P/S ratio at 100x and P/E ratio at 200x and that's just crazy tbh. Not to mention a fee of 2.2%. With that context, the biggest companies in the world at 3-5 trillions are the likes of MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL and AAPL. Do i think with that SpaceX valuation they are going to take over that throne? No way. So the potential for stock growth won't even go past 2x probably. I wouldn't go anywhere near TSLA too to even consider BPTRX.

Desperate_Stretch855

Don’t listen to people who have no idea what they are talking about. Taking a salary means paying taxes- not doing some defers taxes. I’d work on getting him to focus on building a diversified portfolio of large cap and profitable companies first, before moving onto something like this. A lot of time it’s not “is this a good stock to buy?” But “is this the BEST stock for ME to buy?”. Take a look at stocks like: AVGO MSFT GOOGL BRK B MRK JPM

Celticsmoneyline

GOOGL vs AMZN vs MSFT pick one winner

hv876

I am surprised, I thought CBOE had earlier in Jan said they would avoid days with earnings for Options expiry. I am surprised they changed their plans. As a note, GOOGL avoids the option on April 29.

Christ dude, people have made so much damn money on these BS moon shot calls. How the fuck is AMD rocketing. MSFT rocketing, after months of red. SPY hitting 700 with the strait still closed and 6 weeks of oil gone from the markets. GOOGL, AMZN, NVDA, nearing or at their ATH's again. What the fuck??

henrycrutcher

The weird thing is that when I backtested deciles of total debt/total assets within the S&P 500, the highest debt decile crushed the market from 2000, getting 14% annual returns, outperforming SPY 20/26 years (from 2000, including part of 2026). All the S&P 500 got 11% returns, and outperformed SPY 14/26 years. The bottom 10% (which included GOOGL, much of the time) got 8.3%, outperforming 10/26 years.

The amount of bearish comments in here are an indicator of how this should go. Quantum computing is the next frontier, there’s a reason why Nvidia has been focused on it as well as MSFT and GOOGL.

niofalpha

I’m still down 50% on GOOGL calls expiring a month from now 4% from being ITM just got fucked on theta, hoping to pump before earnings

PooPooPointBoiz

Bro, how does this shit even make sense. How can a shoe company do anything that GOOGL/MSFT/AMZN can't absolutely smoke them in?

PooPooPointBoiz

yet when I buy and hold, I get fucked. I rode META from 720 down to 570 and back to 650 where I kept holding and it went down again. Finally sold for a loss. I held GOOGL from 300 down to 275 and back to 300. Everything I fucking hold, I get fucking smoked on.

olearygreen

I’m doing well with my portfolio including RKLB, GOOGL, RDDT, and a bunch of international stuff that gained me 20% on top of the market due to fx differences. None of this means I’m smart to invest. I just got lucky. The market is completely uninvestable no matter what you think. I sold all my US 401k and put it in cash equivalents. It will remain there until there’s either a massive crash or sanity returns on the world stage.

EnigmaSpore

from march iran bottom to now. META +151 (29%) MSFT +55 (15%) AAPL +21 (8.5%) AMZN +49 (25%) GOOGL +65 (24%) NVDA +35 (21%) guys... big tech is why we are pumping. the market participants got the pull back they wanted to increase their positions at a discount. we are just beginning the 26 pump.

jkirk411

Sold out of DKNG and LYFT 2027 calls. bought more GOOGL APPL and XOM. Had about 10 shares of XOM sold half around the $163 mark to start a position in AMD at around $202 and get more SOFI. Only regret is AMD didnt stay there longer before it took off. I was trying to hang in there with DKNG for awhile but it just does nothing.

No_Cod972

GOOGL ATH soon?

greenpride32

> They are all in US mega caps like Google, Amazon etc. and they are rallying since ceasefire talks despite the war being nowhere near over. It just doesn’t make sense. Escalation seems the most likely outcome and the economic impact of the Hormuz issue is not realised yet. In all seriousness, what do you see as the top and bottom line impact to GOOGL and AMZN business due to the conflict and energy squeeze? So what makes more sense - these companies that crank out \~$75-125b in yearly profit, and have been consistently increasing that number every year for past 15-20 years should lose 25-35% of value or they should at least hold value? Cash does nothing but deflate over time. At current HYSA interest rates are you just pacing (perhaps even slightly trailing) inflation.

Blade3colorado

Biggest mistake of your life, but you do you. I'm an investor, i.e., I always keep "dry powder,"e.g., I added more AVGO, NVDA, AMZN, BTDR, CI and VOO when all of them went down in late March. You have quality names, GOOGL, AMZN, etc., why in the hell would you sell??? Your future self will hate you. 'Nuff said . . .

Jagged_Tide

Love selling an ITM GOOGL option because I don’t want my profit to erode and the buying back higher because I like the price action. When I could’ve been up like 300 by now…

Bought 10 Leap calls June 2027 and Jan 2028 deep itm at around 300$ SP. Opportunity similar to GOOGL few years back when Chatgpt came out and it was going to replace google search (aka money to be made on fear).

why not GOOGL?

BeautifulAuthor9167

Selling GOOGL at your target instead of chasing the peak is how you actually survive 100 trades. It’s better to be consistently good than occasionally perfect and broke.

AMZN acting like mid-2025 GOOGL

greenpride32

GOOGL revenue is up over 10x in past 15 years. MSFT revenue is up over 4x in same time period. Of course MSFT was much more mature than GOOGL 15 years ago so their multiple is expected to be lower. These companies more or less increase top and bottom line consistently year after year, which is why the stocks have been going up over time. MSFT AAPL GOOGL NVDA all set highest quarterly revenue in their copmany histories last quarter. When the comment above you specifically mentioned MSFT and GOOGL, who is "blindly" making blanket statements; you or them?

BeConciseBitch

Not on indexes, I’ll DCA on those all the time and only on proven revenue companies like GOOGL, MSFT etc.

making pennies on my GOOGL covered calls after this mini-drop

run_midnight

I was considering UBER or AAPL, as they were both down today, but settled on GOOGL as I think it's got more upside potential. As the post says it's got a current and forward PE of ~30 at its current price, and it's just above its EMA(50) without breaking all time highs yet. On the upside, analyst ratings are all in the high 300 to low 400 range, which is ~40% from current price range, and that's without guidance from the upcoming earnings.

Coloradospruce33

GOOGL makes me happy

Pin-Last

Because of the crazy growth. The forward PE is lower than GOOGL or AMZN at 24, lower PEG too. More expensive than META & NVDA, but those are the current kings of GARP almost for the entire market, not just the MAGs. Yahoo says the PEG is 1.16 & the stock just plummeted over 300 points to 430, so I can’t see that as priced for perfection, though it certainly was 3-4 months ago 

AlphaStreet_LN

Did GOOGL cure cancer?

PooPooPointBoiz

Yeah, and what happens is that they shit the fuckin bed right after I buy in. That drop the other week where GOOGL went from 300 to like 270? Yeah, I was holding that shit. That sucked so much ass.

LucreziaBorgia210

Idk about GOOGL

CMDR_Shepard96

Yeah, I got burnt with some MSFT APR 500C that I bought when it was like 520. Swapped to Mar'27 410/470 Bull spreads just after it broke through 400.. then it kept dipping- nearly back to break even. I'm just not good at this lol My naked GOOGL calls are finally green again though, so that's a positive.

Coloradospruce33

What happens first? META $700 GOOGL $385 MSFT $450 AMZN $275

scoofy

I'm with you, I'm losing it. I went through my portfolio and everything is already defensive except GOOGL which is basically the most defensive tech stock there is. I'm considering buying gold, which I've always thought was honestly stupid. It's a rock that just sits there.

_hiddenscout

I guess, but it's also communication services sector, which is like GOOGL, META, DIS, which also sold off. Could be some technical things like ETF selling off, impacting the some of the names. Probably less AI fears and just general selling in the sector. Also with the sale off, it's still kind of expensive. Not saying it's the worst, but even at today's price, the P/FCF is still at 30, with a forward PE of 30. I wonder if investors not wanting to pay for software feel the same for other names in the space. Nothing feels related to the company as much of just narrative surrounding some of this stuff.

corundum9

NBIS, GOOGL, and CNQ carrying my port. AMD and ASTS doing their part. UNH back above my cost basis. MSFT and SOFI showing signs of life. Feels pretty good!

greenpride32

I've been in the markets for over 25 years. In my early years, I'd think similar to you and fear my paper gains could evaporate because stock prices do go up and down, a lot. But after some time, I started to realize the same names that always drew my interest kept going up over time. I might a stake here, sell for profit, and buy in later at a higher entry. Point is, if you pick winners, they'll keep going up over time. Look at the long term charts for NVDA AMZN MSFT NFLX GOOGL V WMT LLY COST MA - 100% is nothing. So I'm not sure how deeply you research your stocks or if you just follow hot trends. But if you really want to grow net worth, you want to find "forever" stocks - stocks that consistently increase revenue/profit/distributions over time and have some strong barriers to entry. Of course you also need to keep tracking the stocks in case outlook changes and you may need to liquidate. One way gives you some extra spending cash, other way has potentially life changing gains. TBH - you can just use the index to get 10%/year and double the value roughly every 7 years. When you buy individual stocks, you buy them to hit home runs above the 10%.

Blade3colorado

Quite honestly, that's an unknown to me. However, I suspect (as you indicated) there will continue to be layoffs, e.g., META, AMZN, GOOGL, etc., are relatively recent examples. Perhaps, there will be a "universal basic income?" I think Musk has talked about that. Again, dunno . . .
