Nasdaq 100 futures choppy following host of US earnings reports

The Q2 earnings results from Alphabet (GOOGL) have just hit the screens. The markets were expecting a pretty significant beat this evening from Google and the share price had closed modestly higher today by around 0.5% just ahead of the close in anticipation of that. However, that was not reflected in the Nasdaq 100 or the S+P 500 closes, both of which were in the red today. The numbers just released from Google have just crossed the wires and they have reported EPS of $1.89 versus an expected $1.84. Revenue was at $84.74 billion versus $84.18 billion expected.The results from Tesla have just dropped too, but more on those in the next update. So, it was a top and bottom line beat for Google, but that is not directly impacting the Nasdaq 100 futures  that much right now. The index closed today 19,754, with a loss of 68 points on the day. The index future is currently pricing an opening for tomorrow at 19,810
