Alphabet Shares Surge as AI and Cloud Growth Drive New Highs

Alphabet, the parent company of Google, saw its stock price soar by 6% on Monday, reaching another all-time high. The sharp rise was driven by strong investor confidence in the company’s strategy around artificial intelligence (AI) and its growing cloud computing business.

Analysts and users responded positively to the recent release of Gemini 3 Pro, Google’s latest large language model (LLM), with many comparing it favorably to competitors like ChatGPT. These advancements in AI have helped boost the company’s profile and contributed to the enthusiastic response from investors.

Alphabet’s cloud segment is becoming an increasingly important part of its overall business, supporting further profit growth. The company’s market value is quickly approaching $4 trillion, making it the third largest company in the S&P 500 after Nvidia and Apple.

Recent deals, such as an agreement with NATO, and continued investment in AI, cloud, and cybersecurity, further strengthened investor optimism. Alphabet’s stock performance has outpaced other major tech names and led to rising analyst support for its long-term prospects.
