Alphabet Wins Buy Call Among $5.4 Trillion Tech Giants as Google Cloud Revenue Jumps 82%

3 articles · Updated · Yahoo Finance · Sep 11

Summary

  • $4 trillion Alphabet is the analyst’s top pick among the three largest companies, favored over Nvidia and Apple for its mix of AI momentum, search resilience and cloud growth.
  • 82% Google Cloud revenue growth last quarter underpins that call, while Alphabet plans about $200 billion in data-center spending this year to expand AI capacity and defend market share.
  • Nvidia still has strong near-term upside, with the chipmaker guiding for 70% revenue growth next year as big-five data-center capex is projected to reach $800 billion this year and $1.3 trillion next year.
  • $4.6 trillion Apple is the stock to avoid in the top three, as analysts see only 10% growth in 2027 amid pricier components, a $100 iPhone price increase and weaker progress on AI products.
