Alphabet, Inc. (GOOGL) (GOOG) stock&nbsp;rose by over 1% in the early premarket session on Thursday, following the cooling of a three-day rally in the previous session.The&nbsp;move came after a Financial Times report stated that China was ending its antitrust probe against the Sundar Pichai-led company,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/beijing-drops-google-probe-shifting-focus-nvidia-us-trade-talks-ft-reports-2025-09-18/">according</a> to Reuters. The development is seen as a tactical move by China to redirect all regulatory focus on artificial intelligence (AI) chipmaker Nvidia,&nbsp;using the company as a bargaining chip in its trade talks with the U.S. It is also seen as Beijing underscoring its flexibility to the U.S. amid several unresolved issues, especially on the trade front.After President Donald Trump announced his reciprocal tariffs in early April, with China slapped with hefty levies, the two sides have had four rounds of high-level delegation talks. The most recent one, led by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, was held in Madrid, the Spanish capital. Although details of the trade talks were not divulged, the two sides reached a framework agreement to switch TikTok to U.S.-controlled ownership.&nbsp;The FT report also said the Chinese antitrust agency, the State Administration for Market Regulation (SMAR), has decided to drop a case it brought against Google in February. Incidentally, the SAMR said earlier this week that it initiated a probe against Nvidia regarding the company’s 2019 Mellanox Technologies acquisition.&nbsp;A separate FT report said Wednesday that&nbsp;China has imposed a&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/nvidia-stock-draws-significant-investor-interest-after-this-development-in-china/chDGVuRRd6c">sweeping prohibition</a> on domestic tech companies buying the Jensen Huang-led company’s AI chips.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/GOOGL">Alphabet</a>, meanwhile, benefited from a recent antitrust ruling in the U.S. that allowed the company to keep its Chrome browser and Android operating system and to continue its Google Search deal with companies such as Apple. Earlier this week, the company&nbsp;reached the $3 trillion market capitalization milestone for the first time, becoming the fourth most valuable corporation in the world.Retail sentiment toward Alphabet’s Class A stock remained ‘neutral’ (50/100) as of early Thursday, and the message volume remained at ‘normal’ levels.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:616/55;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_09_18_at_4_38_44_AM_png_b043b677da.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-18 at 4.38.44 AM.png" width="616" height="55"><figcaption>GOOGL sentiment and message volume as of 4:30 a.m. ET, Sept. 18 | source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>GOOGL stock has gained 32.25% year-to-date.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/dollar-firms-despite-fed-rate-cut-analyst-sees-powell-s-remarks-as-hawkish/chDc8i0R3Gj">Dollar Firms Despite Fed Rate Cut: Analyst Sees Powell’s Remarks As ‘Hawkish,’ Advises Selling Any Technical Bounce</a>

The display is placed off to the side so that it does not obstruct vision.&nbsp;“This isn’t about strapping a phone to your face. It’s about helping you quickly accomplish some of your everyday tasks without breaking your flow,” Meta said. The company added that it is the first product to integrate microphones, speakers, cameras, and a full-color display, backed by compute and AI, all in a single device that is both stylish and comfortable.It comes with a Meta Neural Band, an EMG wrist band that translates signals created by muscles, including even subtle finger movements, into commands for the glasses. Among the functionalities are Meta AI with visual replies, messaging and video calling, previewing and zooming, pedestrian navigation, and music playback.The price of the device starts at $799, and it will be made available to users on&nbsp;Sept. 30 at limited brick-and-mortar retailers in the U.S., including Best Buy, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and Ray-Ban Stores, followed by select Verizon stores. International launch in Canada, France, Italy, and the UK is planned for early 2026.Tech venture capitalist and Deepwater Asset Management Managing Partner Gene Munster said, “It's the best bang for the buck in the Meta glasses lineup.”Meta also announced the second-generation Ray-Ban Meta 2 AI glasses, featuring new enhancements such as extended battery life, 3K Ultra HD video capture, and additional Meta AI capabilities. The next iteration of Meta’s hugely popular AI glasses has a starting price of $379, which is a hike from the current $299 pricing.The company launched the Oakley Meta Vanguard, a new line of Performance AI glasses built for high-intensity sports. It has been designed with an action-ready camera, integrations with Garmin and Strava, immersive audio to elevate your workouts, and more. It allows a user to pace their tracking or get updates on specific stats in real time, all hands-free and screen-free, so they can remain present while they train.The gadget is priced at $499.

Munster said Meta’s Keynote showed that hardware, software, and AI integration&nbsp;is really hard, adding that the two glasses demos struggled. He&nbsp;views this as good news for Apple, which has faced its own challenges with integrating AI.&nbsp;Meta also launched Horizon TV, which will&nbsp;enable developers to build VR apps today and eventually integrate them with glasses and social media. Munster sees it as bad news for Unity Software (U). “This is similar to what Apple showed when they launched Vision Pro.

Instead, it first bought its way to dominance,” the lawsuit said.&nbsp;The move follows an April 2025 federal ruling that found Google “willfully engaged in a series of anticompetitive acts” to maintain monopoly power in ad exchange and ad server markets.&nbsp;Magnite CEO Michael Barrett said the company was built to help publishers improve ad revenue through technology and transparency, but argued that Google’s self-preferencing practices made that mission harder to achieve. He added that Magnite hopes the legal action will help restore competition and innovation across the digital ad ecosystem.Magnite had previously signaled potential action. On its second-quarter (Q2) earnings call, Barrett told investors the company was “looking at” litigation and saw “a lot of merit there.”The lawsuit follows similar actions by publishers and rivals.

Discovery’s stock price target to $14 from $15. His optimism was based on his view that there is a 30% to 50% probability that the company’s Studios &amp; Streaming segment will likely be acquired. He named Netflix as the most likely buyer, but also&nbsp;included names such as Apple, Comcast, Paramount, Skydance, and Sony.Warner Bros. Discovery was formed as a result of the merger of Warner Media and Discovery Inc. in 2022, following AT&amp;T's spin-off of the former.&nbsp;The report,&nbsp;however, raised antitrust concerns if the two media conglomerates decide to confirm the deal officially.&nbsp;A CNBC report, citing people familiar with the matter,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/11/paramount-skydance-warner-bros-discovery-bid-content.html">said</a> Paramount Skydance CEO and Chairman Ellison has approached an investment bank to prepare a bid for the rival company. Warner Bros. Discovery hasn’t reportedly received a formal bid as of yet.Ahead of the merger rumors, Warner Bros. Discovery had a market capitalization of $31.06 billion, compared to Paramount’s $10.20 billion. Their valuations have now swelled to $40.03 billion and $19.14 billion,&nbsp;respectively.MoffettNathanson analyst Robert Fishman reportedly&nbsp;told CNBC that a bid for WBD “would solidify the overlooked value of its portfolio of assets that was weighed down by its balance sheet.” CNBC host Mark Faber said on air that the deal could be announced as early as next week, according to The Fly.Content BonanzaWarner Bros. Discovery’s Studios segment comprises its flagship Warner Bros. studio, DC Entertainment, and HBO. It is home to major film franchises such as DC Superheroes, “The Lord of the Rings”, “Game of Thrones”, and “Harry Potter”.&nbsp;The linear network business consists of cable networks such as the Discovery Channel, HGTV, Cartoon Network, CNN, TBS, and TNT. The company’s HBO Max streaming business had about 125.7 million subscribers at the end of the second quarter, compared to 77 million for Paramount+.&nbsp; A potential combination is seen to offer rival services such as Netflix and Disney+ a run for their money.Paramount’s flagship studio business operates under the name Paramount Pictures, and its TV media includes CBS Entertainment and Paramount Media Networks, which in turn comprises pay television channels such as MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, etc.Investors, Retail&nbsp;Traders CheerWhile Warner Bros.

Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison has reportedly approached an investment bank to prepare a bid for the rival company, but a formal bid hasn’t been tabled as of yet.

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who owns News Corp. (NWSA) and Fox Corp. (FOXA), has reportedly sealed a deal, settling a succession fight within the family and cementing his son, Lachlan Murdoch's, position as his sole heir apparent.The Murdochs’ media businesses include the New York Post, Wall Street Journal, Fox News, Sky News Australia, and book publisher Harper Collins.The NPR&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.npr.org/2025/09/08/nx-s1-5534435/rupert-murdoch-fox-news-family-succession-lachlan">said,</a> citing people with direct knowledge who claimed anonymity, that Rupert and Lachlan have entered into a series of complex share transactions with the latter’s three eldest siblings, Prudence, Elisabeth and James.Lachlan currently serves as the chairman of News Corp. and executive chair and CEO of Fox Corp. and executive chair of the Australian broadcasting company, Nova Entertainment. Each of Lachlan’s siblings would receive $1.1 billion as part of the settlement.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NWS">News Corp. stock</a> fell 0.50% in Monday’s after-hours, reversing the 1.70% gain in the regular session. On Stocktwits, sentiment toward the stock remained ‘neutral’ (52/100) while the message volume was at ‘normal’ levels. The stock is up over 9% year-to-date (YTD).Meanwhile,<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/FOX"> Fox’s Class B</a> shares fell nearly 3% in the after-hours after settling the regular session up 1.50%. The after-hours drop came after the company said it priced the previously announced secondary offering at $54.25 per share, a discount to Monday’s closing price of $56.81.Fox stock has gained over 25% this year.Retail sentiment toward the stock deteriorated to ‘bearish’ (33/100) from ‘neutral’ a day ago, but the message volume spiked to ‘extremely high’ levels.The NPR report&nbsp;stated that the settlement provides for the dissolution of the old Murdoch family trust and creation of a new one, which Lachlan Murdoch will fully control. Robert Murdoch’s daughters from his third marriage with Wendi Deng, namely Grace and Chloe, will be equal beneficiaries but will not have any say.The Murdoch companies would sell shares worth more than $1.4 billion to fund the settlement, the report added. This will dilute the new family trust’s stake to one-third from roughly 40% in both Fox and News Corp.The rumored settlement brings to a close the feud among the Murdoch siblings over issues, including the direction of the company. James Murdoch had recently voiced his opinion against his father’s media outlets' right-leaning coverage, including support for President Donald Trump and opposition to climate change.Elisabeth and Prudence, meanwhile, did not take kindly to Rupert and Lachlan’s move to sue them without warning in a probate court in Reno, Nevada, in&nbsp;an attempt to cut them off from any influence over the company’s future.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-wolfspeed-stock-skyrocketed-60-in-today-s-after-hours/chw0o5yRdrH">Why Wolfspeed Stock Skyrocketed 60% In Today’s After-Hours</a>
