Man that price tag is a hard one to swallow when it lists. I grabbed more google as they are heavily invested.

I've been buying into XOVR.

Tech’s AI And Venture Capital Windfall
The sheer scale of Alphabet’s venture success stems from two critical early investments. Roughly a decade ago, Alphabet made a $900 million investment in SpaceX, securing an estimated 7% stake that could now be worth more than $100 billion.


Additionally, Alphabet poured approximately $3 billion into Anthropic, the parent company of the popular AI chatbot Claude. With Anthropic’s latest financing rounds pushing its valuation to around $50 billion, Alphabet’s roughly 14% stake adds another massive layer of underlying value.

“Put those two together… that’s $150 billion,” Davis noted. “That’s about as much as Alphabet is planning to spend on AI-related CapEx this year.”
