Alphabet (Google) Stock Lost 6.2% In One Week, What To Expect?
Alphabet (Google’s) stock (NASDAQ: GOOG) has lost 6.2% in the last week, underperforming the S&P 500 (down 0.9%). However, it has outperformed the broader markets over the last ten days (3.1% vs 2.1%) and one month (5.2% vs 3%). The stock markets have been volatile over the last few months due to record-high inflation figures, aggressive interest rate hikes by the Fed, and the Russia-Ukraine crisis. Notably, the company completed its 20-for-1 stock split on Friday (last week) and will trade at a split-adjusted price today.
The global technology giant posted mixed results in the first quarter of 2022, with earnings missing the street estimates but revenues being in line. Its Google advertising segment, which contributes more than 80% of the top line, reported growth in each of the four metrics: paid clicks, cost-per-click, impressions, and cost-per-impression. We expect the same momentum to continue in the second quarter. Overall, consensus estimates for Q2 revenues and earnings are around $70.4 billion and $26.46 respectively.

We believe that there is a 59% chance of a rise in Alphabet stock over the next month (21 trading days) based on our machine-learning analysis of trends in the stock price over the last seven years.
