๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ Alphabet $Alphabet(GOOG)$ vs Amazon $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ Who will win? The competition between the 2 "A"s in Mag 7 is one focused on margins & monetisation.

Alphabet has a tactical advantage as an "AI first" company.  It has a 32% net profit margins and a large cash reserve, allowing it to innovate.

Amazon is the leader in infrastructure but its more than USD 400 billion capex for AWS & logistics is affecting its free cash flow, which dropped 69% recently.

Alphabet can turn Gemini AI into advertising revenue.  Amazon must show that its spending won't reduce profits.

The Verdict

Alphabet has superior margins while Amazon is building a large logistics & cloud empire that is expensive to maintain.

Alphabet has a lower risk profile than Amazon.  Alphabet's recent growth has outstripped Amazon, making it the likely winner this week.

Winner: Alphabet ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†

Google Cloud +48% But CapEx Spikes! All-In AI Would Drag Stock Down Now?
Alphabetโ€™s earnings sparked violent after-hours swings: shares first fell 7.5%, then rebounded over 4%, before turning lower again as investors digested the outlook. Alphabet reported 18% YoY revenue growth, with Search up 17% and Google Cloud revenue beating estimates by 9%. Even after a 42% jump in R&D and a $2.1B one-off Waymo charge, operating margins stayed above 30%. The sticking point: 2026 spending guidance of $180B, more than 50% above expectations, reigniting fears of AI overinvestment.
