Netflix stock drops even after Q4 beat as Warner Bros bid freezes buybacks

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 10:14 EST — Regular session Netflix shares dropped around 3% in early U.S. trading Wednesday, continuing their slide after earnings as investors digested the streaming giant’s bid for Warner Bros.

GOOG stock rises as Greenland tariff jitters ease — what to watch before Alphabet earnings

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 10:16 EST — Regular session Alphabet Inc’s Class C shares (GOOG), which carry no voting rights, gained roughly 1% Wednesday, helping lift the Google parent amid a tentative big tech bounce.

Much of the price movement isn’t driven by Google search trends
