Shares of Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) surged Wednesday amid growing optimism about the tech giant's AI search capabilities in the wake of Google’s I/O conference keynote and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:rollout of its “AI mode” offering in the U.S.

“We come away more confident that Google can successfully navigate the shift to AI Search,” JPMorgan analysts said following the event. The analysts reiterated an “overweight” rating and $195 price target, just above the analyst consensus of $19💟4 compiled by Visib⭕le Alpha.

Shares of the Google parent were up close to 5% near $172 in recent♛ trading, with JPM𒉰organ’s target suggesting roughly 13% upside. Alphabet shares have lost about 10% so far in 2025.

Google I/O underscored the capabilities of the tech giant’s Gemini large language model, Bank of America said. “With an improved LLM and growing AI integration benefits across products, we see [Google’s] AI assets as underappreciated,” the banꦿk 💃said in a note to clients. 

I/O also saw the unveiling of Google AI Ultra, a new $249.99 subscription service that offers access to Google’s mos൲t advanced AI tools, including Gemini 2.5 Pro Deep Think mode for research and the AI filmmaking tool Flow.

Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley and Citi analysts reiterated targets of $185 and $200, respectively.
