Selected for Team Peak Performs FRC challenge portfolio. Our thesis is that Alphabet drives the sustained earnings growth through its core monopoly, and Google cloud expansion and their rise into the AI world.
I chose this stock for the Stock Pickers University Challenge to fill my communication services slot because Alphabet is a very profitable company at a net margin of 32.8% and a medium risk stock that gives me exposure to AI.
