Better EV Stock: Alphabet vs. Tesla (Hint: Robotaxis Are the Key)
Key Points The future of the auto industry lies in electric vehicles and ridesharing in autonomous vehicles. After many years in service, Waymo still can't point to a timeline of profitability. Tesla also faces challenges with its robotaxi offering, but it's well positioned, provided it can demonstrate safety and efficacy. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) isn't, strictly speaking, an electric vehicle (EV) company. However, its autonomous driving technology company, Waymo, is committed to only using EVs in its fleet. Funnily enough, it could be argued that Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) isn't really a pure EV company either. After all, most of its sky–high valuation is attributable to the potential of its robotaxis. However, the comparison of these two as EV companies is valid because the future of the auto industry is EVs, and ridesharing in autonomous vehicles will be a larger part of the industry in the future. But which company is better placed, and which is the better stock? Alphabet vs. Tesla It's entirely possible that Alphabet could decide to spin off Waymo, not least because it reportedly could be valued at more than $45 billion. Meanwhile, one of Tesla's biggest supporters, Cathie Wood's Ark Invest, ascribes 88% of Tesla's enterprise value (market cap plus net debt) to robotaxis in its investment case for the stock, producing an expected value of $2,600 for the stock in 2029. As I have previously discussed, the Ark targets should be taken with a pinch of salt, as its track record on Tesla hasn't been good. However, Ark's core argument is sound and points to Tesla being potentially a far more valuable stock than Waymo ever will be. Pathways to profitability The core argument is that Tesla's business model is scalable to profitability while Waymo's is far less so. The issue of Waymo's profitability arose in a recent CNBC interview with Waymo co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana, where she was asked whether Waymo is profitable. She replied, "We're proving out that it can be a profitable business." When asked when Waymo would be profitable, she replied, "not clear." It's also not clear if Alphabet/Waymo doesn't have an internal forecast for when it will hit profitability, or if Mawakana preferred not to divulge what the company considers an uncertain forecast. However, it's inconceivable that Alphabet is not internally crunching the numbers on this, and if it does decide to spin off Waymo, it's a question that needs to be answered. The point here is that a business that can't be profitable isn't worth anything, let alone $45 billion, so at some point, its management is going to have to set some timelines. Tesla and timelines Whereas investors need to hear more about timelines from Waymo, whose public self-driving ride-hailing service was launched in 2018, there's probably a need for fewer declared timelines from Tesla, or, rather, a need for more accurate ones. For example, in 2019, CEO Elon Musk famously told investors to expect a million self-driving vehicles on the road by mid-2020. In April 2022, he also stated that Tesla aspired to reach volume production of a dedicated robotaxi (Cybercab) in 2024 -- a timeline that has now been pushed back to 2026. These timeline estimates matter because plugging overly optimistic assumptions from them into valuation models can produce dramatically erroneous conclusions. Why Tesla is better positioned With all that said, Tesla has clear advantages over Waymo, provided it can demonstrate safety and reliability and achieve regulatory approvals. Its advantages include: Lower vehicle costs, with Musk aiming for a $30,000 price tag for a dedicated robotaxi, the Cybercab. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts estimate Waymo's current vehicles cost more than $120,000. In addition, Tesla manufactures its own cars (Waymo does not), and existing Teslas can be converted into robotaxis using Tesla's as-yet-unreleased-to-the-public unsupervised full self-driving (FSD) software, giving Tesla a significant advantage in scaling the robotaxi business. Tesla's use of camera-centric technology is inherently less expensive than Waymo's combination of cameras, light detection and ranging (Lidar) lasers, and high-definition maps. Every Tesla car (robotaxi or not) on the road is effectively a data gatherer, with the data used to improve the AI that powers its AI models. As such, even though Waymo was first, Tesla has significantly more data than Waymo. Which is the better EV stock? Waymo may become profitable in the future, particularly if Lidar costs continue to drop. However, it's challenging to think that it will be a strong competitor to Tesla, provided Musk's company can master safe, unsupervised FSD using a camera-centric approach. That's a big "if" at this stage, but it becomes a smaller "if" as time goes by and Tesla expands its nascent robotaxi offering across new geographies. Tesla's next robotaxi launch is expected to be in Phoenix, as it plans to continue slowly building its robotaxi business. I think Tesla is the better EV stock when comparing Tesla and Alphabet.

Americans see crypto as niche and ‘risky' despite Trump's pro-crypto push, corporate embrace: Gallup
Main Street still isn't sold on crypto despite its regulatory glow-up in Washington. Roughly 14% of Americans own any cryptocurrency, and most say they're unlikely to ever buy in, according to a recent Gallup survey. Perceptions of risk remain the biggest hurdle. A majority of respondents said crypto is either 'very risky' or 'somewhat risky,' with only 4% saying they're likely to buy it soon. Another 60% said they have no interest in buying crypto at all. Ownership is concentrated in a narrow demographic: men aged 18 to 49, 25% of whom say they hold Bitcoin or other digital assets. Rates drop sharply among older adults and women, especially seniors, where ownership falls to just 7%. Awareness doesn't seem to be the problem. While nearly all Americans have heard of cryptocurrency, only 35% say they actually 'know something' about it. Among those who are familiar, the perception of volatility remains strong, even among higher-income investors. That puts public sentiment at odds with crypto's growing political and institutional support. In recent months, Congress has passed the Genius and Clarity Acts, laying the groundwork for more formal integration of crypto into the US financial system. Companies like Strategy and Japan's Metaplanet have also embraced Bitcoin as a treasury asset, moves some view as early signs of corporate mainstreaming. Consumer investing platforms like Robinhood, PayPal, and Fidelity have made crypto more accessible than ever, potentially setting the stage for broader adoption. But Gallup's findings suggest that accessibility alone hasn't been enough to overcome public scepticism. Kyle Baird is DL News' Weekend Editor. Got a tip?

What's Next for Hyperliquid's HYPE Token? What Wall Street and Analysts Are Saying
Michael Saylor's controversial bitcoin treasury strategy is no longer fringe — it's being mimicked across corporate America. According to a recent Wall Street Journal report, companies have raised more than $85 billion in 2025 to buy cryptocurrencies for their corporate treasuries — more than double the amount raised in U.S. IPOs this year. Unlike in 2020, when MicroStrategy's Saylor stood alone in selling shares to buy bitcoin, a new wave of companies — from toy manufacturers to semiconductor firms — is executing similar strategies with institutional backing. Capital Group, Galaxy Digital, and D1 Capital are among the firms pouring cash into companies that raise funds to accumulate digital assets directly. The surge has extended beyond bitcoin to include lesser-known tokens, often with higher risk-reward profiles. One of the most prominent examples is Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (HSI), a public crypto treasury company being formed to hold large reserves of HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid blockchain. How HSI Was Created: Atlas and Sonnet Join Forces The HSI initiative was first disclosed on July 14, when Sonnet BioTherapeutics (SONN) announced a reverse merger with Rorschach I LLC, a newly formed vehicle backed by Atlas Merchant Capital, Paradigm, and other high-profile crypto investors. The deal will transform Sonnet into a platform for executing a corporate crypto treasury strategy focused not on bitcoin or ether — but on HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid blockchain. Upon closing, the combined entity will be renamed Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (HSI) and continue trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market. HSI will initially hold 12.6 million HYPE tokens, valued at $583 million at the time of signing, and will deploy at least $305 million more to acquire additional HYPE on the open market. If fully executed, this will create one of the largest institutional reserves of a single altcoin ever disclosed. According to Atlas CEO Bob Diamond, a former CEO of Barclays, who will chair the new company, the opportunity is not just financial — it's strategic. In his words, "We think HYPE is pretty special." Diamond said the team believes Hyperliquid offers a differentiated offering in the digital asset space, and that HSI is uniquely positioned to take advantage of it because of its mix of crypto-native and traditional financial leadership. Matt Huang, co-founder of Paradigm, said institutional demand for Hyperliquid has been rising, but noted that direct access to the HYPE token is still limited in the U.S. While Sonnet will become a wholly owned subsidiary of HSI and continue to manage its biotech programs, the company plans to divest non-core assets. Existing investors will receive contingent value rights (CVRs) tied to Sonnet's therapeutic portfolio. The board of HSI will include Bob Diamond and Eric Rosengren, the former president of the Boston Federal Reserve, alongside incoming financial leadership. The deal is backed by Galaxy Digital, Pantera Capital, D1 Capital, Republic Digital and 683 Capital, and is expected to close in the second half of 2025. What Is Hyperliquid, and How Does the HYPE Token Work? Hyperliquid is the name of a decentralized exchange (DEX) and a high-performance layer-1 blockchain launched in 2023. It was designed to offer the speed and trading experience of centralized exchanges with the transparency and permissionless access of decentralized finance (DeFi). Its infrastructure includes two core layers: HyperCore, which powers high-speed spot and perpetual futures trading with on-chain order books —supporting over 200,000 orders per second. HyperEVM, a general-purpose smart contract layer compatible with Ethereum, enabling developers to build DeFi applications that can interact with HyperCore's liquidity. HYPE is the native token of the Hyperliquid ecosystem. It is used for staking, governance, trading incentives and as the core asset for value capture across the network. As of the time of writing, HYPE is the fifteenth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization and Hyperliquid has processed over $1 trillion in cumulative trading volume. Analyst Commentary: Strong Fundamentals, Diverging Views The surge in institutional attention hasn't settled the debate around HYPE's valuation — despite its strong rally earlier this quarter from a low of $37.41 to nearly $50 (reached on July 14). At the time of writing, according to CoinDesk Data, HYPE is trading at $42.77, down 3.69% in the past 24-hour period. Crypto analyst "McKenna" suggested on Saturday that HYPE may still be undervalued based on revenue metrics. He estimated that if the token were trading at the same valuation multiple (known as SWPE, or sales-weighted price-to-earnings) it reached during its last market peak, its current 30-day average revenue of $3.2 million would imply a fair price of $77. His analysis uses a ratio comparing market cap to trailing platform revenue — a common method in both equity and token analysis. By contrast, "Altcoin Sherpa" signaled caution earlier today. While he praised HYPE's fundamentals — including high user activity, reliable tokenomics and strong team execution — he stated that the move from $9 to over $40 likely exhausted the short-term upside. He said he was holding a small staking position for long-term exposure but was not actively accumulating more at current prices. He suggested he'd wait for a more substantial pullback before increasing his allocation. The two views illustrate a key tension: even with high revenues and institutional backing, tokens like HYPE can become overextended in the short run — especially when driven by narrative momentum and speculative capital. Institutional Altcoin Bets Are Just Getting Started Whether HYPE continues climbing or cools from here, the creation of Hyperliquid Strategies Inc (HSI) marks a turning point in how corporate crypto treasury strategies are being executed. Unlike earlier models that focused on bitcoin as a digital reserve asset, HSI is being built around a single altcoin that didn't exist a year ago. With more than $888 million in combined token and cash commitments, the structure resembles a thematic crypto fund — but with a public listing and institutional leadership. If this approach proves successful, more firms may follow — raising capital not just to hold crypto, but to take concentrated positions in tokens they believe will define the next phase of digital finance.
