      I would really appreciate it if anyone could share some video or article or something that explains the relation between stocks and layoffs.

        I don’t nave a citation, but in general, layoffs are usually used to cut costs. Spending less means more profits. More profits generally means the company looks better to the investors, and hence, better stock price.

            “I decide what the tide will bring.”
