Alphabet is raising $80B (including $10B from Berkshire) to fund AI infrastructure, while Cloud revenue grew 63% YoY and backlog doubled to $460B+. Berkshire's large stake signals deep-value confidence; the company's own capex guidance ($180-190B) and operating cash flow ($174B) show it can finance growth, and the equity offering may dilute but also funds high-return projects. Post implies a long-term bullish view on GOOGL due to accelerating AI/cloud demand and strong financials, despite short-term dilution. Dilution from $80B offering could pressure near-term EPS; AI capex may not yield immediate returns; regulatory headwinds or competition from Microsoft/Amazon.
