The parent company Google, Alphabet, announced a slight slowdown in the growth rate in the fourth quarter of the year.
This financial report has become the subject of attention for analysts due to the growth in the company's spending in areas such as cloud, gaming industry, and business applications. In its statement, Alphabet also noted a 23% increase in the number of employees compared to the previous year.
"Our platform continues to attract users from all over the world, while advertisers increasingly turn to us for attracting audiences with our innovative solutions," noted the company's CEO.
