Alphabet Inc., primarily known for Google, has successfully dismissed two legal actions alleging it holds a monopoly in the online advertising market. Similar historical moments include AT&T's breakup in 1983 and Microsoft's close call in 2001. While certain segments of Alphabet, like Waymo, do not generate significant revenue, others like Google Cloud and Android show enormous potential. Investors speculate that a potential breakup could lead to significant gains, drawing parallels with the successful transition of General Electric into three entities in early 2024.
Google has successfully defended against monopoly claims in the online ad industry, raising questions about potential breakups as seen in historical tech separations.
