Alphabet (GOOGL) Shares Close Above $300 for the First Time
Charts show that Alphabet (GOOGL) shares have reached a record high, closing around $318. In doing so:
→ the price has surpassed the psychological $300 mark;
→ the stock has gained roughly 70% since the start of the year;
→ Larry Page has become the world’s second-richest person, after Elon Musk.
Why Have Alphabet Shares Risen?
The surge is explained by several factors, the most significant being news of strong performance in tests of the AI model Gemini, upgraded to version 3.0. In many benchmarks, it outperformed ChatGPT.
The rise in GOOGL’s share price seems to signal a shift in leadership in the “best AI” race — which could translate into higher sales of paid Gemini versions and increased revenue for Alphabet, which already exceeds analyst expectations, as confirmed by the report released in late October.
Technical Analysis of GOOGL Shares
Price movements have formed an ascending channel (shown in blue), originating in the summer of this year. Along the way, the price recently encountered resistance around:
→ $290: acting as a barrier following the earnings release;
→ $300: a psychological hurdle, as investors were hesitant to pay over three hundred dollars per share.
These levels had kept the price in the lower half of the channel. Now, with GOOGL’s fundamentals strengthened, the stock has reached the channel’s median — typically a point where supply and demand balance. It is reasonable to assume that:
→ the bullish momentum may begin to ease;
→ in the event of a correction, the $290–300 zone may shift roles to act as support, reinforced by the channel’s lower boundary.
