It is rolling out three new Gemini models as Google pushes to strengthen its AI lineup, lower usage costs and compete more directly in cybersecurity.<\/p>\n
\u2022 What\u2019s ahead for GOOG stock?<\/a><\/p>\n Google Targets Cybersecurity<\/p>\n Google is launching Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber, a specialized model built to detect and patch software vulnerabilities<\/a>.<\/p>\n The model will initially be available only to governments and trusted partners through a limited-access pilot. Google said it runs at a lower price per token than larger models, which could help the company compete more directly with Anthropic\u2019s early lead in automated code defense.<\/p>\n Gemini Models Cut Costs<\/p>\n Google is also releasing Gemini 3.6 Flash, which improves coding, multimodal and knowledge-work performance while using up to 17% fewer tokens than the previous model.<\/p>\n Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite is the fastest and lowest-cost model in the 3.5 family, designed for high-volume workloads and smaller tasks within larger AI-agent systems.<\/p>\n AI Race Intensifies<\/p>\n Google is also testing Gemini 3.5 Pro with partners and has started its largest-ever pre-training run for Gemini 4, offering more visibility into its AI roadmap after questions about product delays.<\/p>\n Technical Analysis<\/p>\n From a trend perspective, GOOG is still holding a longer-term uptrend (up 82.57% over the past 12 months), but the near-term tape is choppier: the stock is trading 1.1% below its 20-day SMA and 4.6% below its 50-day SMA, while staying 1.7% above the 100-day SMA and 8.4% above the 200-day SMA.<\/p>\n Earnings & Analyst Outlook<\/p>\n The countdown is on: Alphabet is set to report earnings on July 22 (confirmed).<\/p>\n EPS Estimate: $2.88 (Up from $2.31 year-over-year)<\/p>\n Revenue Estimate: $113.63 billion (Up from $96.43 billion YoY)<\/p>\n Valuation: P\/E of 26.8x (Indicates premium valuation relative to peers)<\/p>\n Analyst Consensus & Recent Actions: The stock carries a Buy rating with an average price forecast<\/a> of $429.67. Recent analyst moves include:<\/p>\n TD Cowen: Buy (Raises forecast to $475 on June 9)<\/p>\n Oppenheimer: Outperform (Raises forecast to $445 on May 15)<\/p>\n JP Morgan: Overweight (Raises forecast to $460 on April 30) Significance: Because GOOG carries such a heavy weight in these funds, any significant inflows or outflows for these ETFs will likely trigger automatic buying or selling of the stock.<\/p>\n GOOG, GOOGL Price Action<\/p>\n
