Alphabet, the parent company of Google, has consistently demonstrated its prowess in innovation and strategic foresight. While the recent quarterly results have showcased impressive financial performance, it's the company's relentless pursuit of long-term value creation that truly sets it apart.

Alphabet's substantial investments in Research and Development (R&D) is a key driver of this value creation. This strategic focus has borne fruit, with projects like Waymo leading the autonomous vehicle industry and positioning Alphabet at the forefront of transportation's future. Moreover, the company's foray into quantum computing and advancements in AI, epitomized by the powerful language model LaMDA and other groundbreaking tools, underscores its commitment to technological leadership.

It's important to recognize that Alphabet's strategic approach often extends beyond the immediate horizon. This long-term perspective has led to investments in diverse, high-potential ventures. One such example is SpaceX, where Alphabet's 7.5% stake highlights its foresight and ability to identify and nurture disruptive technologies.

While the market may not always fully appreciate Alphabet's strategic vision in the short term, the company's track record of delivering sustainable value to shareholders is undeniable. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, Alphabet's innovative spirit and unwavering commitment to R&D position it as a cornerstone of technological progress and a compelling investment opportunity.

Investors probably don't see the wide economic moat that Alphabet has built themselves. They look after their employees and exemplify long term strategic thinking

There is so much hidden long term value in each share.
