Alphabet's shares increased by 3.9% following a 22% rise in its fiscal first-quarter revenue, reaching nearly $110 billion and surpassing analysts' expectations. According to NS3.AI, despite strong growth reports from Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft, their shares declined after the market closed. Meta's shares dropped by over 5% as the company maintained its sales guidance in line with expectations and announced increased capital expenditure plans for this year, attributing the rise to higher component prices and additional data center costs.
