Prediction: This Will Be Alphabet's Stock Price in 5 Years
- Alphabet is firing on all cylinders: Q4 2025 revenue rose 18% to $113.8B, Google Cloud revenue jumped 48% (and turned highly profitable), while Search and YouTube ad dollars also grew.
- Management is pouring into AI infrastructure — 2026 capex guided at a staggering $175–185 billion (about double 2025) to build data centers and compute capacity.
- Motley Fool's take: if AI investments pay off, EPS could double and the stock might reach ~$600 in five years — but the huge capital outlay and competition make this a high‑risk, keep‑small‑position idea.
