In Episode 39 of “Market News with Rodney Lake,” Rodney Lake, Director of the GW Investment Institute, offers a deep dive into Google’s current business performance and challenges. He emphasizes that while Google's core advertising business remains dominant, the company also sees strong growth in Google Cloud. However, Google’s search dominance faces real threats from AI-powered competitors like ChatGPT, Grok, Claude, and DeepSeek. Despite concerns, the company boasts strong financials: a $2 trillion market cap, $350 billion in revenue, nearly 60% gross margins, and $70 billion in net cash.
