Alphabet is emerging as a favoured pick for investors seeking AI exposure with less risk, according to a Motley Fool analysis comparing it with cloud computing firm CoreWeave. The case rests on Alphabet’s broad business base. Google Search, YouTube and Google Cloud give the company several sources of income and a huge user base through which to sell AI products. Third-quarter revenue rose 25% to $127.6 billion, operating income climbed 30% to $40.6 billion, and Google Cloud revenue more than doubled to $30.7 billion. CoreWeave, by contrast, is a pure AI infrastructure play and more exposed to swings in demand, though its shares jumped 13% on Wednesday after a strong earnings beat. Risks remain for Alphabet. The stock suffered its worst day on record in October after posting $9.07 billion in negative free cash flow, and it plans $195 billion to $205 billion in capital spending this year.
