Alphabet is the fourth most valuable company in the world by market capitalization, but an analyst says it\u2019s actually first based on AI strength.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/header>\n

\n

Move over, Nvidia. An analyst says the actual most valuable company in the world is Google\u2019s parent company, Alphabet.<\/p>\n

Research publisher MoffettNathanson wrote in a note obtained by Bloomberg on Thursday that though Alphabet isn\u2019t the world\u2019s largest company by market value, it is in the running for the \u201cmost valuable company in the world\u201d based on AI strength.<\/p>\n

Alphabet\u2019s \u201ccombination of market leadership, diversification and scale\u201d makes the company \u201cnot only a winner in the GenAI era\u201d but also \u201ca company that should rightly be considered for the title of most valuable company in the world,\u201d MoffettNathanson Founder and Media Analyst Michael Nathanson wrote in the note.<\/p>\n

Alphabet\u2019s overall business is booming, thanks to AI. According to the company\u2019s second-quarter earnings, reported at the end of July, revenue increased 14% year-over-year to $96.4 billion, with growth across the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are leading at the frontier of AI and shipping at an incredible pace,\u201d Alphabet and Google CEO Sundar Pichai stated in the report. \u201cAI is positively impacting every part of the business, driving strong momentum.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Alphabet became the fourth company in the world to achieve a $3 trillion market capitalization, joining Nvidia, Microsoft, and Apple in the $3 trillion club. Market capitalization assesses the total value of a company by multiplying the number of company shares by its stock price. Alphabet achieved the milestone more than two decades after Google first went public in 2004.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Alphabet\u2019s market capitalization had diminished to $2.97 trillion, making it the fourth most valuable company in the world by that metric. Nvidia had the highest market value of $4.3 trillion, with Microsoft and Apple following with market capitalizations of $3.79 trillion and $3.74 trillion, respectively.<\/p>\n

Alphabet stock has grown more than 70% this year following a market capitalization low of $1.8 trillion in April. Over the past month, Alphabet shares have gained over 17% in value.<\/p>\n

Nathanson wrote in the note that Google is leading AI search. Google\u2019s global market share in search overall has been approximately 89% for the past year. Last February, the company introduced AI overviews, or AI summaries of search results embedded at the top of search, which have since reached two billion monthly users.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoogle remains the one to beat in GenAI search,\u201d Nathanson wrote in the note.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
