Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is doubling down on AI with $185 billion in planned spending, explosive 48% cloud growth, and a game-changing Apple Gemini deal. The market panicked, but I see something bigger unfolding. If Google Cloud scales the way I expect, this could redefine Alphabet’s earnings power by 2027.
