GOOGL Quarterly Revenue $119.8 billion (up 24% YoY)

=== SUMMARY === - The post reports GOOGL’s Q2 2026 earnings, highlighting 24% revenue growth, cloud revenue surging 82% YoY, and a net income spike driven by $98B in other income (likely Anthropic gains). - The author is long GOOGL, implicitly viewing the strong fundamental momentum and AI/cloud expansion as bullish catalysts despite a one-time earnings boost. - Quality assessment: This is a factual earnings summary with some context, not deep original DD; it’s closer to noise / news recap, but the author’s position signals a bullish tilt. === SENTIMENT === BULLISH === TRADE IDEAS === GOOGL - LONG | confidence: 0.70 | sentiment: +0.80 Speaker: u/Not69Batman Thesis: 1.
