Alphabet‘s shares have outperformed the Zacks Internet – Services industry over the past six months (+53.1% vs. +45.7%). The company is benefiting from accelerated growth across AI infrastructure, Google Cloud and Search. Google Cloud ended the fourth quarter of 2025 with $240 billion in backlog, up 55% sequentially.
GOOGL has more than 325 million paid subscriptions across consumer services with strong adoption for Google One and YouTube Premium. Google Gemini now has over 750 million monthly active users and the company sold more than 8 million paid seats of Gemini enterprise in Q4. Search is benefiting from AI Overviews and AI Mode that has driven growth in overall queries.
Launching of personal intelligence in AI Mode in search and the Gemini app bodes well for Alphabet’s prospects. YouTube is benefiting from the growing demand for shorts. However, stiff competition in cloud computing has been concerning.

Shares of Caterpillar have outperformed the Zacks Manufacturing – Construction and Mining industry over the past six months (+88.8% vs. +87.2%). The company continues to post revenue growth, driven by higher volumes across all segments.
Caterpillar returned to earnings growth in the fourth quarter of 2025 (albeit a modest 0.4%) after five quarters of declines. This a notable achievement given the ongoing tariff headwinds. This is expected to persist into 2026, with management projecting a $2.6 billion impact.
A record backlog of $51.2 billion should support future sales. The Construction Industries segment stands to benefit from rising construction activity in the United States and globally, while Resource Industries will gain from steady commodity demand.
In Power & Energy, sustainability initiatives and data-center investments are driving demand. Caterpillar’s focus on building aftermarket parts and service-related revenues (which generate high margins) will aid growth.

T-Mobile’s shares have underperformed the Zacks Wireless National industry over the past six months (-16.2% vs. -2.7%). The company is affected by growing competition in a highly competitive and saturated U.S. wireless market. Fierce competition with a relatively fixed pool of customers is putting pressure on pricing. Its frequent acquisition strategy adds to integration risks.
Nevertheless, T-Mobile reported impressive fourth-quarter 2025 results, with both top and bottom lines beating the respective Zacks Consensus Estimate. The company is gaining from healthy growth in service revenues driven by industry-leading postpaid net customer additions.
In the fourth quarter, the company added 2.4 million postpaid net customers while postpaid net account additions were 261,000. Backed by robust demand for its postpaid services, the company has presented a bullish outlook for fiscal 2026. A strong focus on efficient capital management is a positive.

Shares of Onfolio have underperformed the Zacks Internet – Commerce industry over the past six months (-52.7% vs. -7.8%). This microcap company with a market capitalization of $2.5 million is witnessing persistent net losses, rising SG&A and limited evidence of sustainable profitability. Heavy amortization from acquisitions, rising debt and interest expenses, ongoing preferred equity dilution, and cash burn continue to pressure earnings quality and common shareholders.
A weakening equity base and tight liquidity further elevate execution and refinancing risks. Nevertheless, Onfolio presents a mixed investment profile, combining strong top-line momentum with balance sheet and profitability risks.
Onfolio is delivering solid revenue and gross margin expansion, driven by a diversified, high-margin portfolio spanning B2B marketing services and scalable B2C digital education products. Growth in recurring service contracts, subscription revenues, and early traction from AI-driven offerings supports operating leverage potential and reduces client concentration risks.
