Since early July, Alphabet's stock has seen a decline, primarily due to a combination of broader market weakness and a mixed second-quarter earnings report.

      The U.S. government's consideration of breaking up Google represents a significant antitrust move, potentially the first of its kind since the unsuccessful attempt to dismantle Microsoft two decades ago. This is my perspective on how we should position in relation to this potential breakup, considering historical precedents and their impact on share prices. Analysis of Potential Breakup Historical Context Breaking up a major corporation can have varied impacts on shareholder value. To understand the potential outcomes, we examine two historical examples: the successful breakup of AT&T and the unsuccessful breakup of Kodak since h=the case with Microsoft is well known. Successful Breakup: AT&T (1984) The breakup of AT&T in 1984 is often cited as a successful example of corporate

      SEC has always been critical about companies growing "Too Big To Fail". There are many examples of this "breaking up major companies news" going around. Just to name a few, such as Microsoft, Apple, IBM, etc that have been subjected for decades but not been broken up. But, how many are successfully push by SEC for breakup, probably not many, but a handful. Google will also be in the same league. This comment is not to advise buy or sell Google stock, pls make your own investment decision. But my opinion & strategy to buy the dip for short term gain (Breakup News, Google dip to $159+/share). And keep those purchase during Google stock-split for long term investment.

Think $Zts which break up from $pfe. $zts has went up so much ! $Jnj and $kvue, same story!  Normally when a stock is about to be break up, the sum of parts valuation normally will be higher than the existing stocks now !

      Google $Alphabet(GOOG)$ Breakup: A Double-Edged Sword The potential breakup of Google, a monumental antitrust move by the US, is undoubtedly casting a long shadow over Alphabet Inc. and its shareholders. While the immediate reaction is market volatility, it's crucial to step back and analyze the situation from a longer-term perspective. Undeniably, this legal battle is a marathon, not a sprint. The litigation process could span years, and the final outcome remains uncertain. This prolonged period of ambiguity will undoubtedly create market fluctuations. However, I believe that the current volatility is likely to be short-lived. Historically, spin-offs haven't always been detrimental. In fact, they've proven to unlock value for shareholders in many
