US EditionAsian Shares Are Higher After Wall Street Steadies Itself as Alphabet Rallies
- On Wednesday, Wall Street stabilized as shares of Alphabet and other tech companies rose following a federal judge's decision in Google's antitrust case.
- The ruling ordered changes to Google's search engine but did not require selling its Chrome browser, easing fears of severe regulatory impact.
- The market also benefited from a retreat in Treasury yields after weaker-than-expected U.S. job reports signaled potential Federal Reserve interest rate cuts later this month.
- Shares of Google’s parent company jumped 9.1%, and Apple’s stock increased by 3.8%, contributing to the S&P 500’s rise of 32.72 points, closing at 6,448.26 as investors reacted positively to the decision; Chris Marangi described the development as a favorable result that exceeded initial expectations.
- The combination of eased regulatory pressure and expectations of lower rates suggests potential support for tech stocks and the broader economy amid concerns over a slowing job market.
