Alphabet (Google) Reports Q2 Results

Alphabet's (e.g. Google's) Q2 results were strong, with a 13.5% increase in revenues and profitability improvements to boot. Cloud led the way, growing 29% year-over-year and surpassing $10 billion in a quarter for the first time. Advertising grew 11% (it remains 76% of total sales), and subscriptions/platforms/devices were up 14%. Google is a pretty steady, predictable stalwart at this point, paying a small dividend and buying back shares consistently. I'm raising the fair value a few bucks to $123, but the stock is still too expensive to buy.
