Shorting Alphabet is gaining traction due to looming antitrust risks: the U.S. DOJ’s ongoing case could force a breakup of Google Search, potentially slashing revenue by 30% based on historical precedents like AT&T’s 1980s split. Technical indicators, including an overbought RSI and declining search ad growth (10% vs. 15% YoY in 2022), suggest a correction of 10-15%, making Alphabet vulnerable in a risk-off environment.
