Alphabet Still Wins

Among these four calls, I agree most with the Alphabet upgrade. The key is that Google’s AI investment is no longer just a massive spending story. Google Cloud is accelerating, margins are improving, the backlog is huge, and its in-house TPU technology could eventually strengthen both competitiveness and profitability. That gives GOOG a compelling AI re-rating opportunity.

I’m more cautious on CRWD and PLTR. Both remain excellent businesses with strong growth, but their valuations already assume years of near-perfect execution. At such multiples, even a small slowdown can trigger a sharp correction.

PYPL is the wildcard. The potential M&A deal could create upside, but it is fundamentally an event-driven trade rather than a pure turnaround story.

My ranking: GOOG first, PYPL second for aggressive investors, CRWD and PLTR on pullbacks. The lesson is simple: in 2026, AI exposure alone isn’t enough—valuation and cash-flow visibility matter.

    TPU v5e is the part I care about more here. If inference gets cheaper at scale, Google Cloud margin upside is bigger than the market is pricing
