$Alphabet(GOOGL)$   🇺🇸📱 Alphabet $GOOGL is down -4% today Let's try to explain that 1️⃣ CAPEX are up and should remain high - the market fails to note that it is for future growth and the company's ROIC is above 20% 2️⃣ Despite being down 8% from its ATH, the stock is still up 25% since January 24. This is a normal healthy consolidation / profit taking 3️⃣ Slowdown in advertising growth I think the company has a lot of leverages to improve its net profit margin: Cloud growth, AI and operational efficiency A calm long term investor would wait for the end of this consolidation phase to reinforce its position
