NEW YORK — Alphabet Inc. Class C (NASDAQ: GOOG) shares experienced a significant rally during Monday’s trading session, closing with substantial gains and carrying that positive momentum into after-hours activity. Investors pushed the tech giant’s stock price firmly higher throughout the day.
At the market close on April 22nd, Alphabet shares settled at
4.04, or 2.70%, for the regular trading day. This upward movement significantly outpaced the previous closing price of $149.86.
The positive sentiment didn’t stop at the closing bell. In after-hours trading, Alphabet stock continued its ascent, reaching
3.15, or 2.05%, indicating continued investor confidence even after the official market close.
Trading activity throughout the day saw Alphabet’s stock navigate a range between a low of $150.87 and a high of $154.61, having opened the session at $151.07. The late-day surge and after-hours climb pushed the stock towards the upper end of its recent performance spectrum.
From a broader perspective, the current price sits comfortably above its 52-week low of $142.66, though still below the 52-week high of $208.70. Key financial metrics displayed include a substantial market capitalization noted as 1.86L Cr (often representing Trillions in US context), a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 19.93, and a dividend yield of 0.52%, a relatively recent feature for the company that may attract income-focused investors. The strong daily performance suggests keen market interest in the tech behemoth as the week progresses.
