GOOGL
Communication ServicesBulls ⚔ Bears · how Reddit is debating it
Bull case
1 stances- Extremely cheap valuation with 1.5x EV/EBITDA, 3.6x P/E, and over 30% FCF yield. ↗
- Aggressive share buybacks, reducing share count by 47% since IPO and returning 50-100% of FCF. ↗
- Margin expansion due to shifting to direct billing, bypassing the 30% Apple/Google app store cut. ↗
- SK Hynix is a major beneficiary of the AI boom due to its dominant position in high-bandwidth memory chips for AI servers. ↗
- The company's stock has surged 230% this year, pushing its market cap above $1 trillion. ↗
- A Nasdaq listing could command higher valuations for tech/growth companies and broaden the global investor base. ↗
Bear case
2 stances- Similar to IBM, Google's quantum architecture requires extensive cryogenics for the whole system, making it less cost-effective for scaling into data centers. ↗
- Shrinking top-line revenue, down 5% in 2025 and 9% in Q1 2026. ↗
- High concentration risk as the business basically relies on only two games. ↗
- Potential value trap if the 'melting ice cube' business model eventually destroys cash flow. ↗
- Direct investment in Anthropic ties GOOGL to the AI supply chain ecosystem vulnerable to the ban. ↗
- Analysts may need to factor in policy costs, leading to slower optimistic revenue growth projections. ↗
