GOOGLE Excellent long-term buy opportunity for a $5000 target. GOOG has been trading around its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) for the past weeks. The Ukraine - Russia war has managed to keep the stock on those low levels, longer than it should but this is a position Google is familiar with. Ever since the beginning of its trading, the stock has been experiencing phases of growth and then pull-backs to the 1W MA50. Only during the peak of the U.S. - China trade war and the COVID crash, did the price manage to break considerably lower (still the 1W MA200/ orange trend-line supported). As you see on the chart, every time the 1W RSI prints a Lower Highs sequence, GOOG posts the same Channel Down pattern to the 1W MA50. In all past cases, the price recovered and expanded rapidly to make new Highs on the next Fibonacci extension. The most recent All Time High (ATH) was just below the 4.0 Fib ext. Technically next to fill is the 5.0 Fib which is around the $5000 mark. That is our target for the next expansion cycle that should peak within 2023. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please support this idea with your likes and comments, it is the best way to keep it relevant and support me. ** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alphabet | Fundamental Analysis |LONG| MUST READ !There is no denying that Alphabet has become a force to be considered with. Indeed, not many companies can boast that their branded product or service has become a verb: "google it." Beyond search, Alphabet is a leader in digital advertising, smartphone operating systems led by Android, and cloud computing with the rapidly growing Google Cloud. Recently, the tech giant informed about a historic 20-for-1 stock split, reducing the size of its stake for the first time in eight years. Now investors who have been considering buying the stock are encountered with a bothersome question: should they buy the stock now or wait until after the split? It's been a long time since Alphabet held its last stock split. In fact, the last time it happened was when the company was still called Google. That was in 2014, and Google didn't change its name to Alphabet until late 2015. What's notable about the previous stock split is that it created non-voting Class C shares of Google, while Class A shares maintained the standard one vote per share. In April 2012, a shareholder lawsuit was filed alleging that co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin orchestrated the stock split to maintain control of the company to the detriment of shareholders. As a result of the split, the company increased the number of shares without a commensurate increase in voting rights. The lawsuit was eventually settled, allowing the split to proceed with shareholder compensation. In the nearly two years between the announcement and the actual stock split, Google stock was up about 74%. Typically, a split does not change the overall economic value of the company that is doing the split. One share of Alphabet worth $2,800 is worth as much as 20 shares worth $140 (20 x $140 = $2,800). As with pizza, the number of slices does not change the overall size of the pie. Nevertheless, some argue that the underlying effect is positive for investor psychology. That's exactly what happened when several well-known companies made headlines over the past couple of years as investors rushed to buy shares after the stock split announcement. Apple stock rose 34% in a month after announcing a 4-for-1 stock split in July 2020. Tesla followed suit less than two weeks later, announcing a 5-for-1 stock split. Between the announcement and the completion of the split, the stock jumped 81%. A similar situation occurred in May 2021, when The Trade Desk announced a 10-for-1 stock split and Nvidia unveiled plans for a 4-for-1 stock split. The Trade Desk and Nvidia stock rose 27% and 24%, respectively, between the day of the announcement and the day the split was completed. Aptus Capital Advisor senior analyst and portfolio manager David Wagner opined on the situation, "We all know the split doesn't boost the fundamental value of the company. ... but from what we've seen in the market with Tesla and Nvidia, people like to chase splits." There are many reasons to think that Alphabet will continue on the same upward trajectory that led to that famous stock split. Google's dominance in search remains unchallenged, with about 92 percent of the global search engine market. Alphabet is using this advantage to gain a leadership position in digital advertising, which accounts for about 29% of global digital ad spending. Nor should we forget Google Cloud, which has quietly risen to the top three, behind only Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. These factors drove Alphabet's strong performance. In the fourth quarter, revenues of $75.3 billion rose 32% year over year, and operating margins improved, boosting earnings per share (EPS) to $30.69, a 38% increase. For investors who are optimistic about Alphabet, there's no reason to hesitate to buy the stock, unless, of course, your financial situation allows you to shell out almost $3,000 per share. If that's the case, and your broker doesn't offer the option to buy fractional shares, a stock split will make them much more affordable over time. If you plan to buy Alphabet stock now, keep in mind that it may require additional record keeping. Those who are buying the stock now (at about $2,800) need to remember to adjust their records to reflect the revised cost base by dividing it by 20 to account for newly issued shares ($2,800 / 20 shares = $140). This will become important when you eventually sell your stock and settle with the tax authorities. Fortunately, brokerage firms know how to do this, so it shouldn't be too difficult. Given Alphabet's market dominance, great execution, and continued outlook, it doesn't matter if you buy the stock now or wait until after the July 18 split-adjusted trading. What matters is that you buy them.

Wait before entering Alphabet GoogleThere will be absolute volatility as Fed's Hawkish stand. Best place to invest will be India more than US. Regarding Alphabet. If I was you I would wait for it to cool down till 2646-2655 levels Or You can buy after it gives a break out above 3037 levels. Right now it will stay range bound and keep fluctuating with action of FED. If important support level of 2646 is broken Alphabet can go to 2483 or below. So we should wait for it to form a bottom. Let it bounce from there then make your moves. Other thing you can do is let it give a Break out above 3037. If it gives a closing above 3037 Alphabet (Google) can go to 3366 levels. That's the target for medium term. Closing below 2190 should be the Stop loss.

Breakout Play on GOOGL The share price of GOOGL rose in after-hours trading yesterday after Google's parent company Alphabet posted robust earnings for the fourth quarter. This entails the opportunity for catching the newly emerging uptrend. The upswing commenced following the completion of the last 1-5 Elliott impulse wave pattern at the lower limit of the descending channel. The price action is to test the 100-day MA (in blue) after today's open. If it manages to break it, the next target would be the 61.8 per cent Fibonacci retracement level at 2817.87, which is currently converging with the 200-day MA (in orange) and the upper limit of the channel; both factors making this last Fibonacci threshold a more significant barrier. Conversely, a failed breakout could potentially lead to a dropdown to the 38.2 per cent Fibonacci at 2693.62, which is about to converge with the 50-day MA (in green). Traders could potentially use such a dropdown to buy the dip of the correction.

Alphabet | Fundamental Analysis | SHORT Alphabet, Google's parent company, has returned about 800% to its investors over the past 10 years, more than double the return of the NASDAQ, which was nearly 400%. Alphabet also remained resilient during the COVID lockdown, as an increase in its cloud business compensated for a transient deceleration in ad sales. The company also avoided a post-localization slowdown as its advertising and cloud businesses increased in tandem. As a result, Alphabet's stock is up 65% in 2021, well ahead of the NASDAQ, S&P 500, and even the growth-oriented ARK Innovation ETF Cathie Wood. Can Alphabet continue to achieve such heights, outperforming the market? To find out, let's evaluate the long-term potential of its core as well as nascent related businesses. In the first nine months of last year, Alphabet made 81% of its revenue from Google ads (including YouTube). Google's sprawling ecosystem, which creates targeted ads based on a user's personal data and browsing habits, allows it to share a near duopoly in the digital advertising market with Meta's Facebook and Instagram. But Google's market share could gradually shrink over the next few years as Amazon and other smaller ad platforms shrink the market. For instance, eMarketer predicts Google's share of the U.S. digital advertising market to decline from 28.6 percent in 2021 to 26.4 percent next year. Nevertheless, the global digital advertising market could still grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.3% from 2020 to 2025. The research firm also expects the market to continue growing at a CAGR of 13.7% from 2025 to 2030. Thus, the growth of the broader digital advertising market, led by high-growth emerging markets, could easily offset any loss of market share to Google by other advertising platforms. Google's advertising business could easily match the rate of market growth if it takes care of its near-term headwinds, including antitrust investigations, Apple's privacy changes in iOS, and a plan to block all third-party cookies in Chrome by the end of 2023. These adaptations could push Google to decrease its dependence on targeted ads and rely more on first-party data and contextual advertising. This transition may be bumpy, but Google is likely to remain the leading advertising platform for businesses as long as it dominates the online search and video markets. The other major growth driver for Alphabet is Google Cloud, which brought in 7% of the company's revenue in the first nine months of 2021. As per Canalys, Google Cloud controlled only 8% of the global cloud infrastructure market in Q3 of last year, putting it a distant third behind Amazon Web Services (AWS) (32%) and Microsoft Azure (21%). Google Cloud is still growing rapidly. Its revenue grew 46% to $13.1 billion in 2020 and another 48% year over year to $13.7 billion in the first nine months of 2021. Its share of 8% in the third quarter also improved from 7% a year ago and 6% in the third quarter of 2019. According to Report Ocean, the global cloud computing market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 17.3% from 2021 to 2027. Google Cloud is likely to equal or even surpass that growth rate if it just doesn't fall behind Amazon and Microsoft in the cloud infrastructure race. Investors are not currently paying much attention to Alphabet's other divisions, which include hardware products (Pixel, Home, Nest, and Fitbit), subscription services, life sciences divisions, and the Waymo drone division. But over the next decade, these small businesses could start generating a much larger percentage of Alphabet's revenue. Its hardware devices could benefit from the continued expansion of the smart home and Internet of Things (IoT) markets, its Calico and Verily science divisions could launch innovative medical procedures and devices. Waymo could launch more robo taxis or license its unmanned driving technology to major automakers. The estimates for these next-generation markets are staggering. According to experts, the global IoT market will grow by 25.4 percent from 2021 to 2028. The same company expects the driverless car market to grow 31.3% from 2021 to 2028. If Alphabet's CAGR grows by 15% over the next ten years, annual growth will amount to an increase from $254 billion in 2021 to more than $1 trillion in 2031. This growth could be interrupted by antitrust threats, a platform change, or an economic downturn, but Alphabet still has a path to many times more profits over the next decade-even for those investors who missed its last 10-year growth.

ALPHABET ( GOOGLE ) FUNDAMENTAL + TRADING ANALYSIS | LONG SETUP⚡Shortly after becoming CEO of Alphabet in 2015, Sundar Pichai boldly stated that his vision was to become an AI-focused company. Alphabet's consistent investment in supporting long-term growth is seen in its strong financial accomplishments. Even though it competes with other tech giants such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Netflix, Alphabet's recent quarterly results suggest that it could well become the world's largest company by market capitalization, displacing Apple in the not-too-distant future. Since the beginning of the year, Alphabet's stock has risen more than 67 percent, nearly triple the 24 percent gain in the S&P 500. Let's break down the financial numbers to see if these gains can continue. In Q3 2021, Alphabet posted revenues of $65 billion, a 41% increase over last year. While this level of growth for a company of this size is terrific, more importantly, it's which business segments contributed the most to the company's results. Alphabet's quarterly revenues were distributed as follows: Advertising ($53.1 billion), Other ($6.9 billion), and Google Cloud ($4.9 billion). According to the company's latest report, investors can see that YouTube brought $7.2 billion in advertising revenue this quarter. On an annualized basis, YouTube's revenue was $20.2 billion, up from $12.9 billion in the first nine months of 2020. That represents a 57% increase over last year. By comparison, Netflix generated $7.5 billion in revenue in the third quarter of 2021 and $21.9 billion in revenue for the year. Comparing that figure to $18.4 billion in the first nine months of 2020, Netflix is up 19% year over year. YouTube's revenues are now $30 billion a year and growing almost three times faster than Netflix's. Given that Alphabet acquired YouTube for $1.65 billion in 2006, it has seen an unbelievable return on investment over the past fifteen years. Google Cloud generated $4.9 billion in revenue in Q3 2021. On the other hand, Amazon's cloud product, AWS, generated $16 billion in revenue in Q3 2021. It's critical to consider that Google Cloud is almost a third smaller than AWS. Nevertheless, some companies, including Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet, are well-positioned to benefit from the growth of cloud adoption. Gartner believes that worldwide spending on public cloud services will grow from $243 billion in 2019 to $692 billion by 2025, a 16 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR). Furthermore, large software companies like Snowflake typically count on more than one public cloud, giving Alphabet ample opportunity to obtain market share even with other players. Among other things, artificial intelligence has been a major theme for big tech. Microsoft has an AI-focused venture capital fund, and it uses the technology to build apps in Azure and support interactions with Cortana. Amazon uses artificial intelligence in the form of its recommendation system, the robots that work in its warehouses, and its Alexa voice assistant. Apple and Netflix, on the other hand, lag behind the other FAANG members when it comes to AI. Notably, Netflix only offers one product (streaming), which does not give it much room to invest in new technology and distinguish itself among its peers. Although competitors such as Microsoft and Amazon are now actively investing in AI, investors might say that Alphabet had a head start, and now other big tech companies are playing catch-up. Alphabet's original product, Google search, used AI in its algorithms. Moreover, Gmail's Suggested Answers feature uses AI. Like Alexa, Google Assistant relies on natural language processing to interpret voice commands. Alphabet also has its own version of Apple's app store, Google Play, and consumers can easily make online purchases of food or other goods. Alphabet's strategic investment has allowed it to effectively create and offer consumers an experience similar to what other tech giants offer, but all in one ecosystem. And now we're seeing the return on that investment in the form of high double-digit revenue growth and profit margins, putting Alphabet far ahead of its FAANG peers. Amazon, Microsoft, Netflix, and Alphabet are all well-capitalized companies. These four invest heavily in different business segments and compete in overlapping industries. However, Alphabet's growth rate stands out among these FAANG club members. Microsoft's third-quarter revenues were up 22% year over year, and Amazon's was up 15%. Alphabet's revenues grew 41% year-over-year, nearly twice as much as Microsoft's and nearly three times as much as Amazon's. Alphabet's investment in becoming an artificial intelligence company is bearing meaningful fruit, and as the world becomes more digital, several product lines and segments of Alphabet's business could benefit. Traders, if you like this idea or have your own opinion about it, please write your own in the comment box . We will be glad for this. Feel free to request any pair/instrument analysis or ask any questions in the comment section below. Have a Good Day Trading !
