GOOGL we had a breakout, but we didn’t get the strength neededGOOGL: Yes, we had a breakout, but we didn’t get the strength we needed.
We got confirmation that Google exited the yellow channel, which I call "no man's land," but when Google broke out of this channel to the upside, it did so with a candle that wasn’t to my liking.
Double TOP!
After the price tried to go up the first time after the breakout, it made one more attempt to go higher but failed. The price returned to the stagnant channel we had analyzed last week.
The earnings report is approaching. I believe the last two candles give me a lot of hope that Google’s upward run is starting here. However, I would like to confirm on Monday or Tuesday with 1 or 2 bullish candles to confirm that my prediction will indeed take effect.
Even though I'm still bullish on GOOGLE ! Remember, we are very close to the earnings report, which could push Google to glory!
Thank you for supporting my analysis.

Alphabet ($GOOG) Faces Pressure Amid DOJ Antitrust MovesAlphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ), the parent company of Google, is feeling the heat as the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) pushes for antitrust action that could fundamentally reshape the tech giant. On Tuesday, October 8, the DOJ filed court documents urging a federal district judge to consider structural remedies for breaking up Google's core businesses. This marks the most significant antitrust prosecution in over three decades since the Microsoft case in the 1990s. Now, Alphabet finds itself on a path that could lead to the breakup of its lucrative search and advertising empire.
DOJ’s Move to Break Up Big Tech
In the latest filing, the DOJ outlines the harms it believes Google’s business practices have caused in four key areas: search distribution, search results generation, advertising scale, and data usage. The remedies the DOJ is considering include contract requirements, non-discrimination product mandates, data-sharing, and even breaking up parts of the company.
Google (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ), in response, has warned that these measures could harm consumers, businesses, and developers. The company argues that the rise of competitors, coupled with emerging technologies like AI, means that competition is already flourishing. Nevertheless, the DOJ contends that Google’s dominance is not the result of its innovation alone but stems from years of anti-competitive practices designed to stifle rivals and maintain its hold on the market.
This case could potentially change the future of the tech industry by opening new opportunities for competitors and shaking up how large platforms like Google operate.
Implications for the Tech Sector
The DOJ's lawsuit is not just about Google; it’s a signal of a broader regulatory crackdown on Big Tech. If the court rules in favor of the DOJ, it could set a precedent for how antitrust laws are applied in the digital age, especially concerning data and artificial intelligence.
One of the key aspects of the case is Google's use of data to fortify its dominance in search and advertising. Google controls vast amounts of data that it uses to enhance its algorithms, making it difficult for competitors to keep up. As AI-driven insights become central to business strategies, the outcome of this case could shape how data is regulated and shared within the tech ecosystem.
This case will also likely influence other tech giants like Meta (formerly Facebook), Amazon, and Apple, all of whom have faced similar accusations of monopolistic practices. The question of whether Big Tech will be forced to downsize could lead to ripple effects across the entire industry, possibly igniting a new era of competition and innovation.
Technical Outlook
On the technical side, Alphabet’s stock (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ) is showing signs of weakness. As of today, the stock is down 2%, reflecting market jitters over the potential antitrust breakup. Currently trading near $148, Google shares are hovering close to their 1-month low.
The technical indicators paint a bearish picture for Alphabet (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ). The stock is trading within a confined zone, with its moving averages forming a perpendicular alignment—typically a signal of consolidation and uncertainty. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 46, which suggests that momentum is waning, but the stock is not yet oversold. A bearish harami candlestick pattern has also formed, which is a reversal signal indicating that the stock could continue to trend downwards.
A break below $148 could trigger further selling, as investors may lose confidence amid the legal uncertainties. The stock is trading close to its 200-day moving average, a critical support level, and any significant move below this level could accelerate the sell-off.
A Potential Game Changer for Google
Google (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ) remains one of the most profitable companies in the world, with its search and advertising businesses driving the majority of its revenue. However, the DOJ's push to break up these core businesses could result in significant revenue losses and operational changes. If the court rules in favor of the DOJ, Alphabet (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ) could be forced to divest some of its most profitable divisions, fundamentally altering how it operates.
The case also raises broader questions about the future of data-driven businesses. Google’s ability to collect and use data at scale has been one of the main drivers of its success. If the company is forced to share data with competitors, it could level the playing field and create new challenges for Alphabet’s business model.
The Road Ahead for Alphabet Investors
For investors, the ongoing legal battle introduces substantial uncertainty. While Alphabet (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:GOOG ) remains a powerhouse in terms of innovation and financial strength, the potential for a breakup and increased regulation poses significant risks. The outcome of this case could reshape the company's future and set new precedents for the entire tech industry.
The next major milestone in this case is the DOJ’s proposed final judgment, expected in November. Until then, Alphabet's stock will likely experience increased volatility as investors weigh the potential impacts of a breakup on the company’s long-term profitability.
GOOGL 2 VALIDATED CONFIRMATIONS! EXTREMELY BULLISH !!!!GOOGL, 2 VALIDATED CONFIRMATIONS!
Last week, I mentioned that I was extremely bullish on Google. In fact, I even sent a buy alert to my investment clients since Google has shown many bullish patterns and is displaying typical "pre-earnings" behavior. However, I have shared my analysis with you for free because I want us all to succeed! And if you've been following my analysis for months, you've seen for yourself that we’ve been on the right track.
Everything happens with Google after it breaks out of a channel. Whenever the price breaks a channel, we need to wait for it to reach its high and look for when the pullback will occur. In this case, after finding its high post-breakout, Google entered a candle congestion channel.
STACKED CHANNEL: A candle congestion channel can be considered a volume indecision. What do I mean by this?
The price creates a bottleneck-like pattern within a very tight channel, behaving strangely, with candles almost the same size and very close to one another. In this situation, it’s very difficult to determine which direction the price will take, and I consider it a complicated and dangerous pattern. All we can do is wait for the price to make a decision.
Once the price makes a decision, it breaks the congestion channel, forming a new high, and consequently, reaching our target zone. That’s precisely when it begins its pullback, and the next step we’re looking for is A NEW EXTREME.
I’ve marked this pattern in yellow, and I call it the N3 Pattern. This usually happens most of the time after a breakout, and we must be very attentive to the candles it produces to execute it.
An N3 pattern involves three movements:
#1 Breakout and New High
#2 Pullback and Rebound
#3 New Extreme
That simple.
Going back to the analysis, we’ve reached our next stop with double confirmation.
In conclusion, I remain very bullish on Google, especially as we are just a few weeks away from Google announcing its earnings report. So, if you're considering entering, whether for a swing trade or long-term, there's still time.
Remember that, based on my valuation and fundamentals, Google has an intrinsic value of $180, so the final decision is yours.
OF COURSE… This is not financial advice, and you make your own decisions and take your own risks.
Thank you for you support :)
Watchlist week ending 10/4/2024Lets get into it! I got a hand full of stocks to keep your eyes on for the week ending 10/4/24. The airlines like #AAL continue to show us that our TA was spot on. Get yourself a warm cup of coffee and soak up this knowledge as we breakdown #SPY #DIS #QQQ #google #intc #MSFT and many more hot #stocks!
So BULLISH on GOOGLE ! There is a very important price behavior we need to check. I am almost certain that this behavior is the key to an upward movement on the following weeks.
There are several points to consider in order to determine what Google’s next move will be.
EMA CROSS WITH DIVERGENCE: As we can see above, we have an EMA cross with bearish divergence. When there is wide divergence between the two EMAs, it indicates strong movement with momentum.
Now, as we can see, the EMA cross is repeating again but in a bullish direction, and we are just starting to see divergence between the two, adding to the fact that the price has already broken the bearish channel with great force, followed by an indecisive Stacked Candle Channel.
CHANNEL BREAKOUT AND MOMENTUM: The price, after breaking our channel with great strength and in a bullish direction, showed decisiveness. However, right now, it is trapped in a "Stacked Candle Channel," (SCC) which is an indecisive channel where candles are clustered together and of almost the same size. This can also be seen as a pattern that the price sets before making a decision.
The question is: What decision will it make, bullish or bearish?
EARNINGS REPORT: The earnings report is fundamental for companies to inform investors of any changes in their balance sheet that have been reflected. In this case, Google is a company with one of the strongest and most solid balance sheets on the NYSE. Google’s last two reports were extraordinary, and I have no doubt that Google will deliver a good report on October 22nd. But as the price approaches the report date, many will take positions, and we could conclude that Google will have a bull run until the 22nd. From there, it will depend on the report to make a leap toward the 180-190 range.
Let's see what happens!
Thank you for supporting my analysis, and I send you my best regards.
Alphabet (GOOGL): Gap Fill and the Future of Wave (2)We remain convinced that Alphabet is currently in Wave (2) after the well-defined end of Wave (1) at $197. Following that, we saw a sharp and fast sell-off, which looks more like a Wave A rather than the full Wave (2). This is further supported by the fact that the sell-off respected the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level perfectly, a typical level for Wave A.
We still have an open gap above, and we believe this should get filled, especially considering the nature of Wave A. We're expecting Wave B to reach between the 61.8% and 78.6% Fibonacci retracement levels. Right between these two levels lies the gap, making it highly likely that this gap will get filled before we continue the downtrend.
Looking further ahead, if you're asking where we would consider buying shares, there are two potential opportunities. The first is around the 50% Fibonacci retracement level and the Point of Control (POC), and the second is lower in what we call the "Great Buy" zone, between $116 and $100. While this might seem like a significant drop, we saw a similar decline in 2022, so nothing is off the table.
We'll keep monitoring this closely for you.
Google - Looking For Sell Triggers Around 171This video provides an overview of the things that I am watching for Google right now.
-We need to monitor the quarterly, monthly & weekly divergences that are currently setup, but not yet confirmed. These are not actionable right now, but they definitely need our attention. If confirmed, they imply some very significant moves in this market.
-We can see that the Monthly is still bullish, and we had a monthly MAC entry confirm on the Daily on September 13th. This trade still has not hit its targets, with the first being 169.69 (what a great number). The second target being 180. I would not be surprised to see Google trade up to 169.69 sometime soon.
-The Weekly chart is confirmed bearish for the MAC strategy. What this means is that any rallies into the weekly MAC high are opportunities to sell on the H6 chart. I'll be looking for sell triggers if price trades into the 171 level (Weekly MAC high).
-Threw in some cycles, for fun.
Have a great week.
GOOGLE THis is what i call SOLID DESICION !! Finally, Google breaks the bearish channel! And we are still at an excellent buying price!
If you're in for the long term with Google:
This is what we call a SOLID DECISION! Despite the recent bad news Google has faced, like lawsuits and other security issues, fundamentally, Google has always shown strength: 0 debt, solid sales and earnings, and, best of all, it’s an innovative company. With an intrinsic value of $180 per share, it’s definitely a long-term buy.
My advice always: forget the news; the numbers speak for themselves! One of the most solid financial statements in the market at a great price.
Now, let's move on to the technical analysis of Google:
Finally, Google breaks the bearish channel with great strength, after respecting our inflection zone (blue zone). As you can see, the price has respected this zone significantly. I’ve been analyzing Google and its rebounds in this zone for months, and we've been forecasting each movement based on the buyer pressure volume when touching this critical area.
In this case, I’ve drawn a vertical line, indicating we're getting closer to Google’s next earnings report. In my opinion, the price will pull back around the $187-$168 range before continuing its bullish trend.
Remember, as Google’s earnings report approaches, we’ll likely see a significant price increase.
Key point: This earnings report will be crucial for Google to move closer to $191, obviously if the report is favorable, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. First, we want it to pass the point of interest around $168.
Let’s see what Google has in store for us this week...
Thank you very much for supporting my analysis!
Weekly Chart Analysis of Google - 22/09/2024Google gives a strong bullish signal on the weekly chart. I believe the pullback in the uptrend has ended, and prices will continue to skyrocket.
We are seeing a strong area of confluence. Prices have touched the Fibonacci 0.618 golden ratio, which aligns with the 50 EMA and SMA. Additionally, there is a strong demand level and the bullish momentum is confirmed by a candle close. This is an excellent time to ride the wave.
GOOGLE looking strong ! we identified a important area. Google needs to break the bearish sequence channel.
We have discovered several inflection points that create a very important zone, which is fully respected. When the price falls into this zone, it simply bounces because historically, these inflection points (green circles) have shown a liquidity and trend action.
If you can see on the 3rd circle, there is a high-volume candle that, upon rejecting the downtrend, creates a zone that could become a support zone if the price were to fall, and that’s exactly what happened in our 4th circle.
GOOGL is undoubtedly showing a lot of strength; however, this coming week, Google needs to show the same strength it has demonstrated over the last two days. In other words, we need enough volume for the price to break the sequential channel and see Google back above 168 or more.
We will see how it goes this week.
Thank you for supporting my analysis.
Best regards.
GOOGLE: The 3rd major bullish wave begins.Google is just turning from bearish to neutral today on the 1D time-frame (RSI = 44.178, MACD = -4.950, ADX = 38.408), same situation also on its 1W outlook, as the stock recovers from the 1W MA50 breach last week. The green weekly close today is positive as it restored the price back inside the 2year Channel Up. A second straight green candle next week, will validate the start of Google's new 250day bullish wave, with the two before it rising by approximately +60% each.
If you are a long term investor, wait for next week's candle close and if green, buy (TP = 230.00).

Can AI Revolutionize Healthcare?The convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and healthcare is ushering in a new era of medical innovation. As AI models continue to evolve, their potential to revolutionize patient care becomes increasingly evident. Google's Med-Gemini, a family of AI models specifically tailored for medical applications, represents a significant leap forward in this direction.
Google's Med-Gemini's advanced capabilities, including its ability to process complex medical data, reason effectively, and understand long-form text, have the potential to transform various aspects of healthcare. From generating radiology reports to analyzing pathology slides and predicting disease risk, Med-Gemini's applications are vast and far-reaching.
However, the integration of AI into healthcare raises important ethical considerations. As AI models become more sophisticated, it is crucial to address concerns related to bias, privacy, and the potential for job displacement. A balanced approach that emphasizes human-AI collaboration is essential to ensure that AI is used to augment rather than replace human expertise.
The future of healthcare is undoubtedly intertwined with the advancement of AI. By harnessing the power of AI, we can unlock new possibilities for improving patient outcomes, enhancing medical research, and revolutionizing the way we deliver healthcare. As we continue to explore the potential of AI in medicine, it is imperative to approach this journey with a sense of both excitement and responsibility.
Antitrust Threat Looms Over Google, Shares Could Plummet by 10%!Google's dominance might be ending. A U.S. judge has decided that the company's control over search is unfair competition. This could lead to Alphabet, Google's parent company, being split up and a major change in online advertising. A new era of search could be coming, as the internet's main player may soon lose its power.
Technical Analysis
The share price has surged by over 190% since hitting its lowest point during the Covid-19 crash.
Following a previous peak of $152, the stock experienced a significant drop and subsequently entered a prolonged phase of consolidation.
After approximately 2.5 years of this price stabilization, the stock finally broke through its prior resistance in April 2024.
This significant breakthrough resulted in an impressive surge, propelled the price to a new all-time high of $193.
However, the stock price faced considerable resistance at that level, resulted in a decline and eventually breaking down of its upward-trending parallel channel.
The stock is likely to experience a sharp decline of about 10%, finding support somewhere between $132 and $131.
$GOOG | Watchlist | Buy Limit |Technical Confluences:
- Price is at Oversold levels from 1H all the way till the Weekly timeframe
- Price just broke the 38% Fibo Retracement level (Orange)
- Price bounced off the 61% Fibo Extension (Blue)
- Price is also in a strong Interest zone; previously the highs of end-2021
- However, price has also broken through a Support trendline
Fundamental Confluences:
- No doubt, Google is a strong name in the tech and now, AI space
- Due to their dominance in many sectors, they are bound to face many kinds of regulatory scrutiny and lawsuits from anti-trust laws etc.
- Revenue streams moving forward may also be affected from the court's hearings
- Considering that Generative AI is picking up traction, will it impact Google's core internet search business activity? Google will definitely still be there just facing stiffer competition
-----
As market is consolidating and rotation out of the tech and AI strategy, I will also bide my time and not rush to get into holding this tech dominant force.
It will be wait and watch story and orders have been set to buy some within the $115 - $130 range.

GOOGLE You can still catch this BUY to based on these indicatorsAlphabet Inc. (GOOG) is in the process of forming a bottom following the July and early August correction. Technically it has already priced the new Higher Low (green Arc) on the 20-month Channel Up but is underperforming relative to the rest of the tech sector.
This is why it hasn't yet broken above the 1D MA100 (green trend-line) but this isn't at all discouraging. Every break within this long-term Channel Up below the 1D MA100 and subsequent recovery above it, confirmed the start of its new Bullish Leg. This has only taken place when the 1D MACD formed a Bullish Cross below the 0.0 mark, which last took place on August 16.
The above occurrences indicate that it is not late to catch this unique long-term buy on Google. Following the October 27 2023 Low, the first High it made was after a +28.14% rise. As a result our first long-term Target is $200.

Google to break the downtrendGoogle is set to make its 6th straight down week. That is only the second time in the past decade that has happened by my count.
At a lowly 23.4, Google's PE is significantly lower than the other tech giants and after a few weeks of bad news (an absurdly bad Gemini demo, the monopoly ruling, potential breakup - although, this isn't actually bad news, is it?) it's seen some support at the 160 level.
While the rest of tech has rebounded quite well since the big drop on August 5th, Google lags behind, not yet making up the losses from that day alone. As seen in the chart, Google is facing a strong resistance line and it is currently bumping up against it, trying to break out.
If we zoom out further, we can see a long-term support channel where Google got some support on August 5th and it has continued to trend with the same direction and magnitude as the overall trend.
The overall market is feeling pretty good right now, recent consumer spending has warded off the concerns of a recession and there isn't a clear reason to sell on the macro level unless you're expecting worse economic news than economists. That being said, the rebound is fairly well extended at this point and short-term profit taking could see this resistance hold for Google again.
I think Google breaks through this resistance soon and we see shorts scramble to cover, quickly pushing Google up to 175-178.
U.S. Justice Department Weighs Action to Curb ‘Illegal MonopolyIn what could be one of the most significant antitrust actions of the modern era, the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) is contemplating the breakup of Alphabet Inc.’s Google, following a landmark court ruling that found the tech giant had illegally monopolized the online search and advertising markets. This decision marks a pivotal moment not only for Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) but also for the broader tech industry, as it could lead to a rare and profound restructuring of one of the world’s most powerful companies.
The Court Ruling: A Game-Changer for Big Tech
Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta delivered a ruling that could alter the trajectory of Google’s dominance in the digital economy. The ruling found that Google had engaged in illegal practices to maintain its monopoly over online search and search text ads, in violation of U.S. antitrust laws. Central to the case were Google’s exclusive agreements with major device manufacturers, such as Apple and Samsung, which ensured that Google Search was the default engine on their devices. In exchange for billions of dollars—$26 billion in 2021 alone—Google effectively eliminated competition by making its search engine ubiquitous across smartphones and tablets.
Judge Mehta’s decision has sparked intense discussions within the Justice Department about the appropriate remedies to address Google’s anti-competitive behavior. While the ruling itself is a major blow to Google, the potential remedies on the table could have even more far-reaching implications, potentially leading to the breakup of the company.
Divestiture on the Table: Android and Chrome in the Crosshairs
One of the most significant and radical remedies being considered is the forced divestiture of key Google assets, including the Android operating system and the Chrome web browser. Android, which powers approximately 2.5 billion devices worldwide, has been a cornerstone of Google’s dominance in the mobile market. Chrome, the world’s most popular web browser, further solidifies Google’s control over how users access the internet.
Judge Mehta’s ruling highlighted how Google’s agreements with device manufacturers required them to pre-install Google’s apps, such as Chrome and Google Search, in a manner that prevents users from deleting them. This strategy has effectively stifled competition, ensuring that rival search engines and browsers struggle to gain a foothold. By mandating the pre-installation of these apps, Google has created an ecosystem where users have little choice but to use its products, thereby reinforcing its monopoly.
The Justice Department’s discussions about breaking up Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) could lead to the most significant corporate restructuring in the United States since the breakup of AT&T in the 1980s. If the DoJ moves forward with this plan, it would signal a major shift in how the U.S. government regulates Big Tech and could have profound implications for the entire industry.
The Historical Context: A Rare Move in Antitrust Enforcement
The potential breakup of Google is reminiscent of other major antitrust actions in U.S. history, such as the dismantling of AT&T in 1984 and the Microsoft case in the late 1990s. However, such measures are rare and are typically reserved for cases where a company’s dominance is so overwhelming that it stifles competition and harms consumers.
The AT&T case, often referred to as the “Bell System breakup,” resulted in the division of the telecommunications giant into seven regional companies, known as “Baby Bells.” This action was intended to foster competition in the telecommunications market and prevent any one company from having too much control over the industry.
Similarly, in the Microsoft case, the company was found guilty of maintaining a monopoly in the PC operating system market through anti-competitive practices. While Microsoft was not broken up, the case resulted in a settlement that imposed significant restrictions on the company’s business practices and required it to share its application programming interfaces (APIs) with third-party developers.
The potential breakup of Google would be in line with these historical precedents, marking the first time in decades that the U.S. government has sought to dismantle a major technology company for monopolistic behavior.
Google’s Dominance and the AI Factor: A Growing Concern
While the focus of the antitrust case is on Google’s dominance in the search and advertising markets, the Justice Department is also increasingly concerned about the company’s growing influence in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Google’s control over online search provides it with an unparalleled advantage in AI development, as the vast amounts of data collected through search queries are used to train its AI models.
Google’s AI-powered features, such as its “AI Overviews,” which provide narrative responses to search queries, are built on the company’s extensive data assets. These overviews summarize information from across the web, presenting it directly to users without requiring them to click through to the original sources. While this feature enhances the user experience, it has raised alarms among regulators who fear that Google’s dominance in search could extend into AI, potentially stifling competition in this emerging field.
In response to concerns about data scraping, Google introduced a tool that allows websites to block data scraping specifically for AI purposes. However, this opt-out option does not apply to all data used for AI development, and Google has been criticized for not allowing website publishers to opt out of AI Overviews, which are considered a “feature” of search rather than a separate product.
The Justice Department’s focus on AI reflects broader concerns about the concentration of power in the tech industry, particularly as AI becomes increasingly central to the digital economy. If Google’s dominance in search allows it to maintain an unassailable lead in AI, it could further entrench the company’s monopoly and limit the opportunities for innovation and competition in this critical area.
Possible Remedies: Breaking Up and Beyond
As the Justice Department considers its options, several potential remedies are on the table. In addition to the possible breakup of Google, other measures being discussed include requiring Google to share more data with competitors, imposing interoperability requirements on its products, and preventing the company from using its dominance in search to unfairly advantage its AI offerings.
One less severe remedy could involve mandating Google to divest or license its data to rival search engines, such as Microsoft’s Bing or DuckDuckGo. This would address one of the key findings in Judge Mehta’s ruling: that Google’s contracts ensure it collects far more user data than its competitors, which in turn allows it to refine its search algorithms and maintain its dominance.
Another option could involve requiring Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) to stop forcing websites to allow their content to be used for AI products in order to appear in search results. This would prevent Google from leveraging its search monopoly to dominate the AI market, ensuring that competitors have a fair chance to develop their own AI technologies.
The Justice Department is also considering banning exclusive contracts that stifle competition. For example, Google’s agreements with device manufacturers, which require the pre-installation of its apps, could be prohibited, allowing consumers more choice in the search engines and browsers they use.
The Road Ahead: Implications for Google and the Tech Industry
The outcome of the upcoming trial, set for September 4, will determine the specific penalties or remedies that Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) will face. If the Justice Department decides to pursue a breakup, it will need approval from Judge Mehta, who would then direct Google to comply. This process could take years to fully unfold, but the implications for Google—and the tech industry as a whole—could be profound.
For Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ), a breakup would mean a dramatic shift in its business model. Divesting Android and Chrome would not only reduce its control over key aspects of the digital ecosystem but could also lead to a loss of synergy between its products, potentially weakening its competitive position. However, it could also create new opportunities for innovation and competition, as other companies step in to fill the void left by Google’s dominance.
For the tech industry, the case could set a significant precedent, influencing how digital markets are regulated in the future. If successful, the Justice Department’s actions could pave the way for more aggressive antitrust enforcement against other tech giants, such as Amazon, Apple, and Facebook, which have also faced scrutiny over their business practices.
The case also raises broader questions about the role of government in regulating technology companies. As digital markets continue to evolve, the balance between fostering innovation and ensuring competition will be a key challenge for regulators. The outcome of the Google case could provide a roadmap for how to navigate this complex landscape, ensuring that the benefits of technology are widely shared while preventing any one company from gaining too much power.
Technical Outlook
Currently, as of the time of writing, Google's stock ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) is down 1.91% in premarket trading on Wednesday. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 39.87, indicating that the stock is quite oversold. This is not good news for Google, especially considering that the company is facing challenging times. However, there is a glimmer of hope as the stock is trading above the 200-day Moving Average.
Conclusion: A Pivotal Moment for Big Tech
The Justice Department’s potential breakup of Google represents a watershed moment in the ongoing effort to regulate Big Tech. As the case progresses, it will be closely watched by industry leaders, regulators, and investors, as it could reshape the future of the technology sector.
For Google, the stakes could not be higher. The company’s dominance in search, advertising, and AI has made it one of the most powerful corporations in the world, but it is now facing the possibility of being dismantled by the very government that once championed its success.
Regardless of the outcome, the case will have lasting implications for the tech industry, as it could set a new standard for antitrust enforcement in the digital age. As the Justice Department weighs its options, the future of Google—and the broader tech landscape—hangs in the balance.
GOOGLE SHORT TIMING? reached important resistance level?
we could see that it is rebounding from an overall downtrend market.
And it's closed to the resistance area of previous lows, which shares the same level with the downtrend line, double confirmed the importance of this resistance area.
So if it be rejected by this area, and start to showing sell signals like bearish engulfing pattern etc, the price may continue to drop.
