Google’s stock price is surging, up over $80-a-share in after-hours trading. This is a huge gain of over 17 percent. The stock is back above the $500-a-share mark for the first time since the end of February.
One of the big reasons for the surge? Huge growth in international markets and paid-click numbers that proved the speculators wrong (as we have suggested multiple times).
We are on the Google call right now and will update with more information when it’s over.

@mircea - I think it’ll go back and forth. analyst raise expectations after a homerun, google misses, analysts lower expectations, homerun.
