About Google

Alphabet Inc. is the holding company for Google and a collection of other businesses. It reports three segments: Google Services, Google Cloud and Other Bets.

Google Services covers ads, Android, Chrome, consumer devices, Google Maps, Google Play, Search and YouTube. It earns revenue mainly from advertising (Google Search & other, YouTube ads and Google Network). It also earns from consumer subscriptions such as YouTube TV, YouTube Music and Premium, NFL Sunday Ticket and Google One, from app and in-app purchases, and from consumer devices.

Google Cloud sells infrastructure and platform services, applications and other enterprise products. Its revenue comes from consumption-based fees and subscriptions for Google Cloud Platform and Google Workspace, and increasingly from product sales of its TPU AI accelerator systems. Demand for enterprise AI infrastructure and AI solutions is now its primary growth engine.

Other Bets generates revenue mainly from autonomous transportation services and internet services.

Alphabet also funds shared AI research centrally, including its Gemini family of models and the Gemini app. It is investing heavily in technical infrastructure and funds part of that build-out through debt, at-the-market equity issuance and mandatory convertible preferred stock, while paying quarterly common dividends.

Inside Jensen Huang’s Final Hours as Nvidia CEO

  • Ian King: board had no choice once the affair involved an employee; only one sell rating remains on Nvidia</list-item>
  • Arm CEO Rene Haas floated as a successor; CFO Colette Kress and team holding things together for now
  • Seoul bureau: Samsung and SK Hynix relationships ran through Huang, and they are half the Kospi
  • Joe Wiesenthal on Mega Speed, neocloud GPU access, and the unwritten rules on Chinese firms renting chips abroad

The bull case now rests entirely on Nvidia's engineers rather than its frontman: reporters argue the chips, CUDA and the customer queue outlast Huang, while analysts have yet to downgrade. The open risk is relational, since supplier ties in Korea and Taiwan were personal, and Washington scrutiny of chips reaching Chinese users through offshore neoclouds is only starting.

Can AI Chip Demand Outrun the Power Crunch?

  • Morgan Stanley lifts its US data center power shortfall from 30 gigawatts to the mid-30s through 2028 after Texas and Ohio governor races
  • Stephen Byrd calls it a delay, not a cancellation, with 2029 deployment much larger and grid optimization dismissed as hype
  • Offsets cited: off-grid builds, Louisiana, and Asia, including Google's recent Malaysia deal
  • Joe Moore says 2027 chip supply is tightening, memory is hyperscalers' top bottleneck, and stocks wrongly price a 2028 slowdown

The power bottleneck that spooked AI investors is being reframed as a timing issue: delayed gigawatts push deployment into 2029 and stretch the cycle, while Alphabet's Malaysia deal gets named as exactly the workaround that keeps chip demand intact. Moore's call is that the market has already priced a 2028 rollover that he does not see coming.

Instant Reaction: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Ousted by Nvidia Board

  • CFO Colette Kress named interim chief, with Bloomberg Intelligence expecting her to hold the job one to two quarters
  • Mandeep Singh: no successor easily replicates Huang's ecosystem deal-making or TSMC and supply chain ties
  • CUDA creator Ian Buck floated as the leading internal candidate given Nvidia's six-month chip cadence
  • Anurag Rana ranks the AI chip race Nvidia first, then Google, Amazon, Microsoft, with the gap now easier to close

The succession question is no longer hypothetical, and the analyst read is that an interim CFO running the company buys hyperscalers time to push their own silicon. If you own Nvidia for its ecosystem lock-in, a leadership vacuum is now testing that moat. The Tim Cook comparison came up, and nobody on the panel treated it as settled.

Freedom vs. Safety: Axon CEO Rick Smith on the Future of Policing

  • Rick Smith retraces Axon's near-bankruptcy, dot-com IPO at a $12M valuation, short attack and SEC probe
  • Pivot from hardware to cloud software after Ferguson; body cams now handle more daily video uploads than YouTube
  • Axon is now Skydio's largest investor with nearly half the company, locking up public-safety drones
  • Taser-equipped drone program defended after ethics board resignations; hard limits on autonomous lethal force

The Skydio stake points to where the next leg of growth comes from: drones and robotics sold into the same police agencies already paying for cloud video. Smith frames regulation as guardrails, which matters for a business whose contracts live or die on public sentiment after the ethics board walkouts.

GOOG and RDDT, good time to buy?

u/stonks_admin 150 upvotes233 comments

GOOG is never a bad buy. I’ve never bought Reddit and likely never will

233 comments and the crowd splits cleanly: Alphabet gets the benefit of the doubt, Reddit gets blamed for the same AI search shift that just cut its traffic. The thread is a live test of whether a 25% post-earnings drop is a discount or a broken business model.
