Alger Capital made the following comment about Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) is a global technology company specializing in cloud operating systems and digital advertising company revenues are primarily driven by online advertising on its google search platform, along with selling hardware devices and apps on google play. Shares underperformed during the period as the company reported mixed second-quarter results. The company’s net revenues were slightly below analysts’ estimates as advertisers reduced their spending. Moreover, growth in their cloud computing segment-google cloud-was lower than analysts’ estimates. While near-term results were uninspiring, we believe the company remains well positioned for the long term with leading search technology that should produce incremental sales growth from increasing smartphone adoption.”
