Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 8 days.
The thesis — published April 22, 2026
Alphabet looks attractive over the next few months because business trends are solid and an earnings report is coming soon. New Gemini Enterprise and cloud deals make the case that AI could bring in more revenue. Trading momentum is positive but not extreme, so there is room to move higher if search and cloud stay strong and capital spending worries stay limited.
Primary drivers
- Earnings are a near-term event that could move the stock
- Gemini Enterprise and cloud deals help monetize AI efforts
- Search, cloud, and ads together generate steady cash flow
- Current trading strength suggests more upside is possible
