NEW YORK (AP) — The latest on developments in financial markets (all times local):

4 p.m.

Stocks are notching more record highs on Wall Street thanks to big gains in Google’s parent company and others reporting strong second-quarter results.

Alphabet soared 9.6% Friday, its biggest gain in four years, after reporting earnings late Thursday that blew past analysts’ forecasts.

Twitter also jumped 8.9% after turning in a strong quarter, but online retail giant Amazon slipped 1.6% after reporting a rare earnings miss as the company ramps up spending on faster deliveries.

The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq closed at record highs.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 51 points, or 0.2%, to 27,192. The Nasdaq rose 91 points, or 1.1%, to 8,330.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury held steady at 2.07%.
