About
News Corp is a global media and information services company controlled by the Murdoch family through Class B supervoting shares, founded following the 2013 separation of Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation into two entities—Fox Corporation (entertainment and news broadcast) and News Corp (publishing and digital real estate). Headquartered in New York City and traded on Nasdaq (NWS for Class B non-voting shares; NWSA for Class A), News Corp generated approximately $10.1 billion in revenues for fiscal year 2024 (ending June 2024) under CEO Robert Thomson. Lachlan Murdoch serves as Executive Chairman, and the Murdoch family—through Rupert Murdoch's family trust—retains controlling voting power. The company's portfolio spans premium digital real estate (REA Group in Australia, Move Inc./realtor.com in the U.S.), news media (The Wall Street Journal, New York Post, The Times of London, The Australian), book publishing (HarperCollins), and subscription video (Foxtel in Australia).

About
Alphabet Inc. is a Mountain View, California-based technology conglomerate — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: GOOGL, GOOG) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — operating as the holding company for Google (Search, YouTube, Google Ads, Gmail, Google Cloud, Android, Chrome, Maps, Play Store, Workspace), and Other Bets (Waymo autonomous vehicles, DeepMind AI research, Verily life sciences, Wing drone delivery, Google Fiber) through approximately 183,000 full-time employees. In fiscal year 2024, Alphabet reported revenues of $350 billion (+15% year-over-year), with Google Services (Search, YouTube, Google Play, subscriptions) generating $307 billion, Google Cloud generating $43.2 billion (+30%), and Other Bets $2.0 billion, while generating $100 billion in net income — reflecting Alphabet's position as one of the highest-profit companies in history, funded by Google Search's advertising monopoly (processing 8.5+ billion searches daily, commanding 90%+ global search market share). CEO Sundar Pichai has prioritized Alphabet's AI-first transformation: the 2024 launch of Gemini Ultra 1.0, Gemini 1.5 Pro (1 million token context window — largest at launch), and Gemini 2.0 Flash positioned Google as a competitive AI frontier model lab alongside OpenAI, following the ChatGPT disruption that temporarily threatened Google's search advertising dominance in 2023. Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform (enterprise AI model deployment with Gemini, Llama, and third-party models) and Google Distributed Cloud (air-gapped government cloud) compete directly with Microsoft Azure AI and AWS SageMaker for enterprise AI workload contracts. Waymo's commercial robotaxi operations in San Francisco, Phoenix, and Los Angeles (Waymo One — fully driverless rides, generating revenue and operational data) represent Alphabet's highest-upside long-duration investment.
