In the 2026 Global View "Global Perspective" selection of the top 10 core assets, Google (GOOG.US) once again demonstrated excellent performance, with its stock price rising 1.11% to close at $326.01 and its market capitalization reaching an astonishing $3.93 trillion. Within the same day, the stock price rose more than 2%, peaking at $330.54 and setting a new historical high.
This increase in Google's stock price was driven by the announcement of introducing an additional AI feature called "Gemini" to Gmail. This update is not only a technological breakthrough but also a significant improvement in user experience. According to the official Google blog, when users open emails containing a large number of replies, Gmail will provide a concise summary of the email thread, extracting key points to efficiently retrieve information. This way, users will be able to quickly grasp important information without having to read long email texts in the future.
Furthermore, Google plans to introduce an "AI Overview" feature to the Gmail inbox. Users will be able to see smart email summaries at the top of search results. This initiative aims to enhance Gmail's competitiveness in the AI market and establish a leading position against technology companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic. Google mentioned that the number of Gmail users has now exceeded 3 billion, and this large user base will strongly support the adoption of new technologies.
The addition of the Gemini feature indicates that Google is integrating artificial intelligence technology more deeply into its consumer products. This move will improve user experience and further solidify Google's leadership position in the AI field.
