Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) was able to eke out traders confidence on Thursday afternoon, with mouth watering earnings for its recently ended third quarter, regardless of a generally witnessed decline in the PC market for the quarter.
Following the session's closing bell on Friday, Microsoft declared fiscal third quarter results of $6.06 billion, or 72 cents per share, on revenue of $20.5 billion.
However, Dell on the other hand, experienced a rough session on Friday following Blackstone reported that it is no longer going after the technology firm in a takeover bid, as Dell's financial profile was rusting away very quickly.
On Friday's session, another tech component, International Business Machines Corp. (NYSE:IBM), was the top decliner in the S&P 500 following its first-quarter earnings were unable to cheer up experts at Wall Street.
The diversified computer systems firm (IBM) tumbled 8.3% on Friday, a day following the company declared its quarterly earnings for first quarter, which came in below Wall Street’s targets and reported a step that it would lower its labor force to reach its 2013 earnings prediction of $16.70 per share.
