Alphabet (GOOGL) News Today $163.98 -2.56 (-1.54%) As of 04:00 PM Eastern Add Compare Share Share Headlines Stock AnalysisAnalyst ForecastsChartCompetitorsDividendEarningsFinancialsHeadlinesInsider TradesOptions ChainOwnershipSEC FilingsShort InterestTrendsBuy This Stock Why is Alphabet Down Today?Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) shares have ticked higher today, driven by a slate of positive developments around artificial intelligence, autonomous driving and strategic partnerships—though offset in part by a modest downward revision to near-term earnings estimates. Key drivers: AI Mode rollout: Google has launched an “AI Mode” for U.S. search users, representing a major upgrade to its core search product and reinforcing the company’s leadership in generative AI. AI glasses partnership: At Google I/O, Alphabet committed up to $150 million to joint development of AI-powered smart glasses with Warby Parker—an announcement that also sent Warby Parker stock sharply higher. Waymo milestones: The Alphabet-owned ride-hailing unit doubled its cumulative robotaxi trips to 10 million in five months and won California approval to expand service south of San Francisco. Sector spotlight: MarketBeat’s latest screeners have highlighted Alphabet as one of the top “space” and “cybersecurity” stocks to watch, underscoring investor interest in its diversified growth platforms. Earnings revision headwind: Analysts at Zacks Research lowered their Q4 2025 EPS estimate for GOOGL from $2.36 to $2.26, tempering some of the upside after a period of heavy AI-driven hype. Investor takeaway: Momentum in AI enhancements, autonomous driving and new consumer partnerships is supporting GOOGL’s share performance, even as modest cuts to near-term earnings forecasts introduce a cautionary note on valuation.Posted 2h agoAI generated GOOGL Latest News All Sources Trusted Sources MarketBeat Benzinga Bloomberg GlobeNewswire GuruFocus MarketWatch Motley Fool NASDAQ PR Newswire Reuters Seeking Alpha TalkMarkets The Street TipRanks The Wall Street Journal Wall Street Zen Yahoo Finance Source Sentiment refers to the positivity or negativity of each headline according to our language processing algorithm.
