Alphabet Nears $4 Trillion as AI Gains and Cloud Momentum Lift Shares

Investor demand reflects rising Gemini adoption alongside accelerating cloud growth.

Overview

  • Alphabet’s market value reached roughly $3.82 trillion this week, with shares hitting a record $315.9 after a gain of more than 5% on Monday.
  • The stock is up nearly 70% this year, leaving Google’s parent close to a $4 trillion valuation that only Nvidia and Apple currently hold.
  • Momentum follows the launch of Gemini 3 and strong engagement with Gemini features, including Google-reported spikes of 10 million new app users and over 200 million image edits after the Nano Banana editor.
  • Google Cloud has emerged as a key growth driver, with confidence underscored by Berkshire Hathaway’s newly disclosed multi‑million‑share stake.
  • Shares were rising again in premarket trading today, and separate reports say Meta is considering Google’s TPUs for future data centers, a potential deal that remains unconfirmed.
