Stock futures rose in premarket trading on Friday, driven higher by positive earnings reports from major technology companies. Google parent Alphabet led the gainers, with its stock surging 11% after beating expectations on the back of strong YouTube revenue and Cloud growth. Microsoft also impressed, with its shares climbing 5% after posting better-than-expected FQ3 results, fueled by robust growth in its Azure business. Snap followed suit, with its shares jumping 24% after reporting an upbeat Q1 and Q2 outlook. However, the semiconductor giant Intel performed poorly, with its stock plummeting 7% due to mixed Q1 results and a disappointing outlook.
