Alphabet's share price has risen by a further 6 percent this year, outperforming its rivals. Earlier in September 2025, Alphabet already reached the $3 trillion milestone, driven by optimism about its AI approach."

The leasing of Google's self-developed AI chips, previously reserved for internal use, significantly accelerated this growth. Even competitor Meta is reportedly in talks to invest billions in Alphabet's chips for its data centers starting in 2027, The Information reported."
