A slam-dunk report from Alphabet helped extend markets into a fourth-straight day of gains Wednesday. The tech giant reported a solid beat and a surprising 20-to-1 stock split. Shares jumped 7.7%. Wall Street gains were more modest than in recent sessions, but the S&P added 0.94%, the Nasdaq 0.5% and the Dow 0.63%.<\/p>\n
Besides the Google company, gainers included: Lam Research<\/a> 3.62%, Qualcomm<\/a> 6.14%, Chubb<\/a> 3.99% and AMD<\/a> 4.41% as the semis enjoyed a nice lift. Laggards included Beyond Meat<\/a> at -4.28%, Netflix<\/a> -6.15%, Etsy<\/a> -9.5% and Salesforce<\/a> -3.54%. However, not every report was golden. PayPay<\/a> reported a terrible quarter and outlook–its second in a row–and was hammered by 24.3%. Meanwhile, the U.S. 10-year yield held around 1.777% while Bitcoin<\/a> shed 2.65% to trade around $37,350.<\/p>\n Crude oil prices were tentative ahead of a key OPEC+ meeting amid talk of adding more supply to the market, if possible. WTI inched up\u00a0 0.12% to $88.31 a barrel while WCS was flat at $74.81. The TSX added 0.19%. Gains were held back by Shopify<\/a> which slid 10%. Gainers were Loblaw<\/a> up 3.5%, Birchcliffe Energy<\/a> 5.52%, and BMO<\/a> 1.9%. Losers included Bombardier<\/a> at -3.41%, Blackberry<\/a> -5.41% and the controversial Dye & Durham<\/a> at -14.49% over claims of controlling too much of the legal software business.<\/p>\n 🧬 Lam Research<\/a> +3.62% A slam-dunk report from Alphabet helped extend markets into a fourth-straight day of gains Wednesday.
