Alphabet (GOOGL) stock trades at about $332, and options expiring roughly a year out price a 68% probability range running from roughly $233 to roughly $474. That floor sits just under the stock's 52-week low of $235.96, while the ceiling clears its 52-week high of $402.12.

Wide as it is, the range carries only a normal premium over how much the shares actually moved in the past year.

If you’re like us, you’re likely paying for at least one subscription you’ve forgotten about — and maybe several. A streaming service you signed up for to watch one show or game.

The stock has gained more than 30% in under two months on 10 occasions since 2020, most recently in 2026, and six of those gains topped 50%. The case for another leg rests on what sits behind three straight quarters of faster growth: Snowflake's AI tools are getting customers to use more of its core data platform.

Oracle (ORCL) made almost a quarter more operating profit in its last fiscal year. Yet when trading closed on September 10, the stock sat around 53% under the peak it reached a year before. Rising profit and a falling price point to one of two stories: trouble the results have not caught up with, or a sound company that has been repriced. The question is whether Oracle is turning into a weaker business, or has just become a cheaper stock.

It’s been a bad week for the world’s most valuable company—and there was another unwelcome development on Friday.

Tesla is down on the year, yet two ETFs that both own the stock are having completely opposite experiences in 2026. The reason has nothing to do with the stock itself and everything to do with a single number buried in each fund's filing.
