US Stocks Rally on Tech Earnings
US stocks ended the week strong, buoyed by a rally in mega-cap growth stocks following robust quarterly results from technology heavyweights Alphabet and Microsoft. Alphabet breached the $2 trillion market value mark for the first time since November 2021, as investors cheered the Google parent announcing its first-ever dividend and a $70 billion stock buyback. Richly valued US stocks are leaving investors with little tolerance for disappointment, raising the stakes ahead of a week in which two more technology and growth giants are set to report. Amazon is set to report on Tuesday, and Apple on Thursday.
