    Amazon just posted the largest quarterly profit in its history and burned cash doing it. Net income was $62.6 billion. Of that, $53.4 billion was non-operating other income, primarily from its investments in Anthropic. Free cash flow over the same trailing twelve months was negative $7.6 billion. Operations are not the problem. Operating cash flow rose 33% to $161.4 billion. The swing came from a $66.1 billion year-over-year increase in property and equipment purchases, which the company attributes to AI. The income statement booked a revaluation of a private holding. The cash-flow statement booked the buildout. Same quarter, opposite stories. Then the forward arithmetic. Amazon guided 2026 capital expenditure to about $220 billion, raised on higher memory costs. Trailing operating cash flow is $161.4 billion. That gap gets funded, and right now it gets funded into a bond market that just pushed the 30-year Treasury to its highest since 2006. AWS is not the weak link. It grew 37% and carries a $496 billion backlog. The question was never whether the demand is real. It is what the capital costs while the demand arrives.

    The real cost of selling on a marketplace or on Booking is not the 15 percent commission. It is that the customer ends up registered under someone else's name, and the second purchase pays the same toll as the first. What you do control is the moment of delivery. The guest who just checked in, the buyer who just opened the box. That is where you have a legitimate reason to ask for an email: the neighborhood guide you actually wrote, the warranty registration, the care instructions for the product. You are not scraping the platform or buying a list, you are asking with permission in exchange for something the platform does not hand out. Two warnings, because this is where most people fall over. Amazon prohibits inserts that divert traffic and Airbnb does not let you move an existing booking off platform, so the play is always the next booking, never the current one. And the metric is not open rate. It is what share of this month's revenue came in with no commission attached. If that number is still zero after six months, the list is not working, it is just stored.

    @WeinerBarf420 @NeptuneACX1000 Yes on the vets! Interesting tidbit. We’ve been through several vets for our two dogs, all being bought up by PE and all raising prices drastically and pushing more expensive treatments and medications for our healthy animals on their checkups. We kept switching to a family owned vet only to have them be unable to compete and sell out. Well money got tight, as it is for so many, so we just stopped taking them for their annuals, vowing to only go if they had a pressing medical need. One of the things we had them on were these expensive monthly combo chews for fleas, worms, etc. Was costing us $75/month per dog, so $150/ month total. So expensive and then we realized we were literally poisoning their blood stream with insecticide so fleas and parasites wouldn’t stay. We stopped the chews. Turns out healthy dogs rarely get worms etc and our eco friendly pest service sprays the yard they spend most of their time in for fleas as part of our $50/month service. When we go for a walk outside of the house we rub a little peppermint or lavender oil on their fur. No fleas. No worms. No parasites. No nothing. Going on two years now. We live in South Carolina too. Not like fleas and bugs aren’t a big thing here. I can’t believe we spent that kind of money thinking our dogs and home would be infested with fleas of we’re didn’t only to stop it and… nothing! 😡 Also, one of our dogs is senior. A golden lab mix who was 12 at the time. They wanted to do dozens of repeating tests, put her on pills, schedule bi-weekly visits etc. all at exorbitant costs. Told us we were neglectful to her aging needs if we didn’t submit and that she’d die in pain if we didn’t. We walked away. Found a collagen chew on Amazon for her hip arthritis to replace the $80/month prescription that gave her digestive issues (with another recommended pill and monthly tests for that!) and it works wonderfully at $15/month with no side effects. That’s it. Then we just love her and take care of her without all the medicalization of simple aging. She’s almost 14 now still with us, still happy, going slower in her age but doing well. Just taking the inexpensive collagen chews. Whether it’s our dogs or ourselves, my family does better staying away from corporate medicine.

    @Milajoy No they're gone because covid made everyone work from home and now we realize most businesses dont need a dumb office for people to sit and remote call other coworkers. Amazon also relocated and left millions of square feet empty. No people, no business. What are u doin to fix it

    Near-term Fed hike odds just got pushed out. Markets are ripping. Here’s what’s real and what’s noise. 🧵 Money markets still project a Fed hike in 2026 - just not before December. That’s the shift driving today’s rally. Not “no hike.” A later hike. The S&P is rising toward a record, on pace for its best week since April. The Nasdaq 100 is up about 1%. The dollar is falling. Short-dated Treasuries are outperforming. Buy the delay, not the dovishness. Here’s the part that matters more long term: The Magnificent 7’s valuation premium over the S&P 500 has fallen to its lowest level in a decade from a typical 30% premium down to roughly 10%. Combined, they’re still worth $22.7 trillion — 23.5% of the entire market. Same dominance. Historically cheap relative price. That combination doesn’t last long. Under the hood, the group has split into two camps — Amazon, Nvidia, Alphabet and Meta leading the rebound, while Tesla, Microsoft and Apple have trailed. “Mag 7” is a label now, not one trade. I own Microsoft. I own Tesla. Neither one is riding the same wave as Nvidia right now and that’s exactly why I watch them individually, not as a basket. $SPY $MSFT $TSLA $NVDA

    The AI infrastructure crunch is no longer limited to GPUs and memory: Amazon $AMZN's AWS is now rationing CPU capacity as agentic AI workloads drive demand for general-purpose compute to unexpected levels. AWS has directed internal teams to cut compute usage by decommissioning idle EC2 instances and reallocating that capacity to paying customers. One engineer told The Information that obtaining CPU server capacity now takes several days, versus a few hours previously. The internal crunch runs parallel to a broader capacity emergency: Amazon raised its 2026 cash capex to $220 billion from $200 billion, driven by higher memory costs, yet CEO Andy Jassy has acknowledged AWS will still fall short of meeting all customer demand this year and expects constraints to persist through 2027. AWS backlog hit $496 billion at quarter-end, up from $364 billion just 3 months prior, underscoring the scale of committed demand that Amazon is racing to serve and the urgency behind squeezing every idle CPU cycle back into production.

    @torontobaghead @SportsnetPR @hockeynight They fail to realize they are only making fragmentation of their market worse. As bad as watching hockey on Amazon or Apple is - at least those platforms are improving and stick to the sport. Reminds me of all MSM that lose more and more of their market each year - double down.

    @_barrybigelow @audrawrongspeak We don't have the $1,000 super computers. We have used and refurbished phones bought off of Amazon. We use them until they die. Most of our spending is on supplements because we have health issues. We finally went on vacation for the second time in 20 years because right now financially I'm doing better. But the state could pull my ability to caregive my disabled adult daughter as her PA any time and I would be screwed.

    @itispsychomath And there is why you move as far away from them as possible. Avoid the major cities and such even if it means you have to have an Amazon drone ship your stuff. It ain’t worth dealing with them. Look what just a few of them are doing in Japan because they can afford to get in to just visit now. Tokyo has trash all over the place. Tokyo, one of the cleanest big cities on the planet, now has a trash issue because more blacks got in.

    E-commerce spent two decades competing at checkout. The next fight is happening somewhere the customer never sees: the financing underneath the merchant. @DowProtocol just raised $10.5M for a simple idea. When you sell on Amazon, the payout takes 14-28 days. Your cash is real, it's just trapped. Dow advances it against those receivables in seconds, using the sales data the platform already has, and gets repaid automatically when the payout clears. Here's why it matters beyond one protocol. Amazon knows more about a merchant's creditworthiness than any bank. Every sale, every return, every day, in real time. That's a better underwriting signal than a credit file, and the platform controls the repayment flow too. Commerce data was always the valuable asset. It's finally being turned into credit. Which reframes the whole card business. For a decade, fintech built the card as the product: issue it, earn interchange, add rewards. When credit gets underwritten from commerce data and repaid from payout flow, the card stops being the product and becomes the endpoint. The value moves to the layer beneath it: the liquidity, the credit model, the data. If your entire moat is a card and interchange, you're defending the part that's being commoditized. The money underneath it is where the next cycle gets won.

    A copy of Seth Klarman's book sells for $1,200 on Amazon and $2,000 on eBay. It has been out of print for over three decades and has reportedly been stolen from most libraries that ever owned it. A full recording of him explaining the exact same philosophy, in his own words, has sat free on YouTube since 2009. As of the last public count, it had roughly 4,400 views. Klarman almost never speaks publicly. He runs The Baupost Group, one of the most respected hedge funds in the world, and has spent decades declining interviews, avoiding cameras, and letting his fund's results speak for him. On March 17, 2009, in the middle of the financial crisis, he made an exception. He dialed into a small value investing class at the Richard Ivey School of Business in Ontario and talked for over an hour. Harvard MBA, 1982, Baker Scholar. Cornell, economics, magna *** laude. Decades running a fund that has reportedly compounded at over 20% annualized. His whole approach comes down to one habit almost nobody actually practices: he asks what he can lose before he asks what he can make. Absolute returns over relative returns. No borrowed money to juice the position. "We never had margin debt in the history of the firm." He sells before the position is perfect, not after, because waiting for the last dollar is how people give the whole trade back. Everyone chasing relative performance against a benchmark is playing a different game than Klarman is. He was never trying to beat the index. He was trying to never lose the client's money in the first place. The book costs $1,200 if you can even find one. The talk that says the same thing has been sitting there, free, for over fifteen years. Nobody hid this. Nobody made you pay for it.

    @CuriousPejjy I’m worried about our Tesla future mate! All the other Tesla influencers are spruiking this merger but are glossing over the MASSIVE Capex plans for SpaceX compared to what Tesla needs. We need a lot of money to build the world wide robotaxi and Semi fleet but SpaceX needs Much More for space based AI compute and the moon mass driver. I havnt heard anyone break down the cost of this, and if we stumble into this merger ALL of the combined profit from our two companies might be reinvesting into Capx for 20 years! No profit or dividends means the share price will stay much lower than it would be otherwise. Just like with Amazon, the share price will appreciate when the investment phase is done and the company starts printing cash

    Welp, Walmart's surge pricing has hit their website. So now I have no reason to shop with them at all. I haven't stepped inside one since delivery started. So now, if you buy something often, they will raise the price on you. I accidentally found this out by searching for puff pastry before I logged in. I logged in, and they raised the price by .30 cents. I logged out, and it went back down. Fuuuuck you, Walmart. I would rather pay double at Publix than give you one more red cent. Raise prices as high as you want; that's your prerogative, but don't be sneaky with it. This is Amazon-level stupidity.

    @N0tThatSimple @NorthshoreRob59 @MattH_4America What mantra? What do you think I am arguing? Home prices are high - they get high before the bubble pops. Wages adjust and as we deport more wages will increase and homes will become affordable. I remember in 2007 there was a book on Amazon that literally stated home prices will never go down... 2008 they crashed 30-40%. The first home we bought for $68, 000 had originally sold for $87,000 just 3 years prior. Then a massive recession hit. It's value dropped another another $9,000 I remember opening an MLS statement telling me that the home I bought at $68,000 was worth $59,000. I just saw it listed for $470,000 dollars.
