Alphabet Trades Near Highs as Earnings Power and AI Spend Justify a Premium

01/07/2026 02:34 PM • Alphabet (GOOGL) trades near 52-week highs at ~$320, justified by strong Q3 2025 earnings (15.95% YoY revenue growth to $102.35B, 32.99% net income growth), expanding margins, and strategic AI infrastructure initiatives. The company is diversifying beyond search ads through YouTube, Google Cloud (34% YoY growth), and building competitive advantages via TorchTPU chips and the Intersect energy acquisition (10.8 GW capacity). While valuation at 32x earnings is elevated, analysts argue earnings growth into the multiple is realistic given AI monetization potential and infrastructure dominance.

GOOG - Strong Q3 2025 financial performance with 15.95% YoY revenue growth, 32.99% net income growth, and expanding 34.18% net margins. Strategic initiatives (TorchTPU, Intersect energy deal, Gemini deployments) position the company for sustained double-digit EPS growth. Diversified revenue streams reduce search ad dependency. Analyst rates as 'Buy' despite elevated 32x P/E multiple.

China Tells Tech Firms To Stop Nvidia H200 Chip Orders

01/07/2026 12:49 PM • Chinese authorities have instructed local technology firms to pause orders of Nvidia's H200 chips, directing them to prioritize domestic AI processors instead. The move reflects China's strategy to reduce dependence on U.S. semiconductor hardware amid ongoing trade tensions. Despite high demand interest expressed by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, the expected mandate for domestic chip usage could significantly impact Nvidia's market share in China.

SMCI - Down 35% in past month, RSI of 27.77 indicates potential for reversal
NVDA - China's directive to pause H200 orders and mandate domestic chip usage poses a significant threat to Nvidia's market share and revenue in one of its key markets. While current demand remains high, the expected policy shift toward domestic alternatives could substantially reduce future sales opportunities in China.
