About GooglePostEarningsDrop

Alphabet fell 12.64% in its first full session after Q3 earnings, losing ~$500B in market value in its largest one-day drop since listing. Q3 free cash flow was about negative $9.1B, its second straight negative quarter. Despite rapid cloud growth, rising AI capex and slower search ad growth raised concerns. UBS, JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs cut price targets, though some retained positive ratings. Views remain divided on AI investment returns and future earnings.
