Nasdaq hits one-month low after Tesla, Alphabet disappoint with lackluster earnings

The Nasdaq tumbled on Wednesday, reaching a one-month low. Tesla’s disappointing earnings, including a sharp decline in profit margins, triggered a massive sell-off. Alphabet’s results also fell short of expectations, raising concerns about the sustainability of the recent tech-driven market rally.

Tesla slumped 11%, set to lose around $83 billion in market value at current levels from Tuesday’s close, if losses hold, after the EV maker reported its lowest profit margin in more than five years and missed second-quarter earnings estimates.
Google parent Alphabet, too, shed 4.6% despite a second-quarter earnings beat, as investors focused on an advertising growth slowdown and the company flagged high capital expenses for the year.
The benchmark S&P 500 dropped to a three-week low, pulled down by a 3% drop each in Apple, Microsoft, Amazon.com, Meta Platforms, and Nvidia.
