  • Google's parent company and other tech stocks are weighing on a mixed Wall Street Wednesday as the focus swings back toward how much profit businesses are making. The S&P 500 rose 0.1% in afternoon trading.

The article from MSN discusses the performance of Wall Street following earnings reports from major companies like Alphabet and AMD.
