STORY: From a stock rout that stunned India, to a grim outlook from big tech, this is the Week in Numbers. First up…

Over $100 billion was the plunge in value for companies in India’s Adani Group by the end of the week.

Earnings from Apple and Alphabet also disappointed investors, adding to a sense that times are getting tougher for big tech.
