Alphabet Explodes 7% Higher After Beating Estimates Across The Board, 20-For-One Stock Split Heading into today''s post-market earnings juggernaut, which includes EA, SBUX, PYPL, GM, and others, the one company investors were most focused on was Google, pardon Alphabet, the third largest US company by market cap As Bloomberg writes in its preview, investors will be laser focused on progress in Alphabets Google Cloud segment. The internet companys cloud-computing unit is the No. 3 player in the U.S., behind Amazon Web Services and Microsofts Azure. But the far bigger question is whether Alphabet would continue the trend of earnings beats set last week with Microsoft and ahead of the coming earnings from Amazon and Facebook.

BBG reported late Tuesday that Facebook-owner Meta has been looking for a buyer for its Diem project after the Federal Reserve and several powerful American lawmakers (including notably Sens. Sherrod Brown and Elizabeth Warren) produced enough resistance to the project to leave it finally dead in the water.
