(Reuters) -The U.S. Department of Justice is considering options that include breaking up Alphabet's Google, a week after a judge ruled the tech giant illegally monopolized the online search market, according to Bloomberg News.
Shares of the California-based company were down about 3% at 1401 GMT on Wednesday, having fallen in after hours trading when Bloomberg published its report late on Tuesday.
