Instant Reaction: Alphabet Slides After Cloud Sales Fall Short | Bloomberg Businessweek

Google parent Alphabet posted fourth-quarter revenue that missed analysts’ expectations as growth in its cloud business slowed. The shares fell more than 8%. Sales, excluding partner payouts, were $81.6 billion, Alphabet said Tuesday in a statement. Analysts had projected $82.8 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The company also projected $75 billion in 2025 capital expenditures, far exceeding the $57.9 billion that analysts expected, related to a buildout of data centers and infrastructure for artificial intelligence. That led to a more than 6% boost in Broadcom shares.
