Microsoft's profits rose sharply days after the company announced thousands of layoffs

Microsoft's profits rose sharply in the days following the company's announcement of thousands of job cuts, the BBC reported. The report, so far carried only by the BBC, did not give further detail on the size of the profit increase or the reasons behind the timing. It remains unclear how the layoffs relate to the company's financial performance or what further job losses, if any, may follow.
