GOOG, GOOGL
Published: April 21, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

I'm upgrading Alphabet Inc. aka Google stock to a strong buy ahead of Q1 2025 earnings despite tariff and antitrust challenges. The stock is down 22% YTD and is now trading at $150, which I think is an attractive price for those looking to hold the stock for the long term. I think Google's business remains resilient amid tariff risks, with YouTube and cloud services showing promising growth against competitors like Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft.

Alphabet: Search Hegemony In Jeopardy
GOOG, GOOGL

Sentiment: Negative

With the advent of next-gen, reasoning AI, Alphabet's search business, Google, has never been more controversial. Today, I will walk us through the considerations associated with the current search landscape, which, in my view, is experiencing dramatic evolution. Meta AI and OpenAI, with their 1B+ user total, have now firmly established themselves as legitimate search platforms, and, as they improve their tech, this trend will continue. That said, it's not all bad for Alphabet and its search property.

Alphabet Earnings Outlook: Considering Bull Spreads For Quick And Aggressive Rebound

Sentiment: Positive

Alphabet's Q1 2025 outlook is strong, driven by a resilient ad market, explosive cloud growth, and increasing Gemini adoption, aligning with Guggenheim's 8% ad revenue growth forecast. Google Cloud is expected to maintain 25-30% YoY growth with $12.3 billion revenue and $2 billion EBIT, bolstered by AI innovations and strategic acquisitions. At less than 20x FCF, GOOG shares are undervalued, presenting a "Buy" opportunity; a solid Q1 could trigger a sharp rebound, supported by a 5%/15% OTM bull call spread strategy.
