I still believe $GOOG will be the top performing Mag 7 this year. Google Cloud crushed it. Grew at 48%. Whisper number was 38% growth. Search had a solid quarter too. Grew at 17% vs. the Street whisper 15% and compared to 14.5% in Sep, 11.7% in June, and 9.8% in March. Highest search growth quarter since March of 2022.
