Google Inc.(NasdaqGS: GOOG)

Wall Street stocks staged a sharp recovery on Tuesday morning as figures showed consumer confidence improved much more than expected in May.

That erased early concerns about the impact of North Korean nuclear tests and a record fall in house prices.

Microsoft picked up 2.8 per cent to $20.30, while Google, which is also exposed to the consumer because of its reliance on advertisers for revenue, also rose 2.8 per cent to $404.49.

The gains came in spite of geo-political concerns over the repercussions of North Korea’s missile test, which took their toll on oil prices in early trade. That in turn knocked shares in energy companies.

Microsoft Corporation (NasdaqGS: MSFT)

Microsof looks to be gearing up for a busy few months, potentially tackling rivals on multiple fronts.

Speculation is mounting that the software maker will overhaul its search engine strategy this week, unveiling "Bing," the successor to its Live Search offering.

The software giant will demo the search engine at the "D: All Things Digital" conference in San Diego, Calif., according to the New York Post, ahead of an official launch in June.

Microsoft, like  Yahoo!(YHOO Quote), is looking to challenge Google's(GOOG Quote) dominance in online search. Google holds more than 60% of the market, according to the latest research from ComSource, and there continues to be talk of a possible Microsoft-Yahoo! partnership.
