Alphabet, the parent company of Google, has clarified its ongoing growth in overall search query volumes, including an increase from Apple device users. This growth is attributed to enhancements in Google's search features, which users find increasingly useful for various queries. Users are accessing new insights through browsers and Google apps, utilizing voice commands and Google Lens, indicating continuous innovation.
Despite this positive news, Alphabet's stock (GOOGL, Financial) fell over 7% recently. This decline followed court testimony from Apple executives revealing a decrease in Safari browser search volumes as more users turn to artificial intelligence technologies. Alphabet plans to unveil further innovations at the upcoming Google I/O event.
