Alphabet joined the Dow Jones Industrial Average on Monday, replacing Verizon and adding a symbolic blue-chip designation, as shares rose 4%. The move comes despite continued pressure on the stock, which is tracking for its worst month since February of last year, with six of the past seven weeks in the red. The inclusion occurs amid investor questions about the payoff from the company's AI spending, with Google DeepMind researchers leaving for rivals like Anthropic and OpenAI, and compute access emerging as both a customer constraint and a recruiting issue.
Desempenho das Ações da Alphabet Mostra Queda de Seis Semanas Apesar do Ganho de Segunda-feira
Even with Monday's 4% gain, Alphabet is tracking for its worst month since February of last year, with six of the past seven weeks in the red. That marks a sharp reversal from May, when the company briefly eclipsed Nvidia after hours to become the world's most valuable company by market capitalization.
Inclusão no Dow Tem Impacto Mecânico Limitado para a Alphabet
Alphabet's Dow inclusion is more symbolic than mechanical. The stock is already in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, where most benchmarked assets sit, limiting the amount of forced fund buying tied to the index change. Recent Dow additions have also struggled after joining: Nvidia, Salesforce and Apple all traded lower 60 days after entering the index.
