It is high time critical businesses started looking for substitute to MS for DR possibility. As an alternative in case of such a disaster some other reliable option has to be be in place for future. As for crowdstrike, future seems bleak after this incident. It is definitely easily replaceable.

There are a few Microsoft alternatives, a few are free and some are with premium, Mishkil Bhai.

The best overall Microsoft 365 alternative is Google Workspace. Other similar apps like Microsoft 365 are Monday.com, ONLYOFFICE Workspace, Zoho Mail, and LibreOffice.

yes they are substitute for MS office. I was talking about Windows at user level. At server levels I myself always recommend linux or Unix which are robust. About MS office, the alternatives you mentioned are there but they are not as user friendly as MS office, and not efficient as well. They need to work on that. Android OS is vulnerable too.

Dow Jones futures rose modestly Sunday night, along with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures, as President Joe Biden ended his campaign.

Dow Jones futures rose 0.2% vs. fair value. S&P 500 futures advanced 0.35% and Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.55%.

The 10-year Treasury yield dipped to 4.22%. Crude oil futures edged higher.

Bitcoin briefly fell to $65,850 on Biden's exit, but reversed to above $68,000, rising slightly vs. 24 hours earlier.

Solar stocks and green energy plays have struggled in recent weeks on the Trump trade, while coal and oil stocks have rallied.

Remember that overnight action in Dow futures and elsewhere doesn't necessarily translate into actual trading in the next regular stock market session.

Dow Jones futures and the other major stock indexes dropped Wednesday, as Wall Street reacted to several notable second-quarter earnings reports. Two early earnings losers on the stock market today were Magnificent Seven players Tesla (TSLA) and Alphabet (GOOGL).

Electric-vehicle giant Tesla announced mixed second-quarter earnings and revenue late Tuesday. Earnings plummeted by more than 40% while sales came in above expectations. Tesla stock plunged nearly 8% in premarket trading.

Meanwhile, Google-parent Alphabet reported second-quarter earnings and revenue that topped analyst estimates as operating margins improved. Google stock lost 4.3% as management signaled higher expenses in the September quarter, curtailing margin growth.

A global consumer backtrack from post-pandemic revenge spending is starting to hit companies’ top and bottom lines. Whether it’s US grocery shoppers tapped out after a period of punishing inflation or wealthy Chinese customers postponing their next splurge, the effects are rippling across the corporate landscape. Nestle, the world’s biggest food firm, cut its revenue outlook for the year while Unilever reported sales that missed estimates. Jeep-owner Stellantis posted a plunge in profit. A day prior, appliance maker Whirlpool lowered its earnings forecast. Big US airlines have warned that cut-rate airfares are weighing on sales and profits.

The selloff in US shares continued Thursday, even if the price action was less dramatic. For much of the US session, markets actually managed to eke out gains. But toward the end of the day, that pattern gave way, with the Nasdaq leading shares down. Still the “root cause” of the selloff is nervousness about megacap tech shares priced to perfection and AI stocks in bubble territory. Those fears aren't going away.
