Sorry if this is an obvious question but GOOG for example wasn't halted today while IBM was. Is there any particular reason why certain stocks are halted while others aren't?

Why do some stocks get halted after earnings while others don't?

Not all brokers halt the stock(s). It will depend on their position as the broker must own shares to allow shorts.
If the broker believes or knows the information they will halt the stock for their protection and allow only the longs or shorts to exit once the adjustment in the bid/ask is complete.
noticed IBM and AMD were halted but not MSFT or GOOG.

google has a huge short position and market maker of the options has lots of money so it won't drop 50% in one day

stocks like google don't drop 33% in 1 minute and stay down and keep going down further.
