The company announced 2026 capital expenditures of $175–185 billion and expanded Gemini AI into new industrial and consumer partnerships.

Dividend approval and Gemini expansion as selling pressure persists

Alphabet approved a new $0.21 quarterly dividend and reported Q4 revenue exceeding $114 billion, with full-year 2025 sales topping $400 billion. The company set 2026 capital expenditures at $175–185 billion. Gemini AI features were launched on Google TV and a partnership between Google DeepMind and Agile Robots was announced to deploy Gemini AI in industrial robotics, initially focusing on electronics, automotive, and logistics applications, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Continuous selling momentum as oscillators flag downside fatigue

Momentum indicators on the daily chart remain negative for GOOGL. Both MACD and ADX suggest further downside, and oversold readings from RSI (34.25), CCI (–210), Stoch RSI, and BBP indicate persistent seller control. The Awesome Oscillator also confirms the downtrend. The stock opened with a gap down at $285.55 versus the prior close of $290.88, dropped 1.44%, and is trading near the day’s range top ($284.20 – $287.06) with moderate volatility. Short-term oscillators flag oversold territory, creating a divergence that suggests downside fatigue but not a reversal.

Bullish weekly signals as GOOGL eyes range-bound consolidation

Over the next five trading sessions, GOOGL is expected to fluctuate within a typical volatility band between $282 and $295. A price increase is likely (probability above 80%) based on weekly bullish signals from MA-50, RSI, ADX, and MACD, making additional decline less probable. The baseline scenario is continued consolidation between the nearest support and resistance. A move above $304 may trigger a push toward $295 or higher, while a fall below $282 could renew the recent downtrend.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, analyst at Traders Union, sees Alphabet’s long-term fundamental and macro outlook staying strong despite short-term bearish signals. He notes robust earnings, rising sales, and Gemini AI partnerships as supporting factors. The expert believes that oversold technicals and elevated volatility hint at limited further downside for now. Consolidation is likely between $282 and $295, with a high probability of a bullish reversal if positive sentiment persists. "If the price sustains above support, I expect renewed upward momentum for GOOGL as recent innovation and strong financials continue to attract buying interest."

Earlier, analysts noted that Google's push toward post-quantum cryptography represented a broader shift in the technology sector, with long-term implications for security standards and industry adoption. While Alphabet’s near-term trading remains under bearish pressure, investors should monitor for a potential breakout above the $304 resistance level, which could signal a return of positive momentum.
