  I learnt about this in my Business analytics degree and I’m going to break it down for you. Temu isn’t shipping your order from a factory in Shenzhen the moment you tap “buy.” They moved away from that model a while back. What they run now is a demand forecasting operation: they collect order data by region, figure out which products people in, say, Yaba or Lekki keep buying, then ship bulk quantities of those products to fulfilment warehouses already inside the UK or US. Your order never left the country. It was already sitting in a warehouse 40 miles from you before you even opened the app. This is standard supply chain logic. Amazon has been doing it for years. What makes Temu interesting is how aggressively they’re applying it at scale. They’re working backwards from purchase history, search behaviour, and even abandoned carts to predict what needs to be stocked where, weeks before the demand actually lands. By the time you order a #5000 phone stand at 11pm on a Saturday, there’s a reasonable chance 200 of those phone stands are already in a depot near you because the data said they would move in your postcode cluster this weekend. It’s called inventory pre-positioning, and the predictive layer underneath it is machine learning working on millions of rows of transaction data daily. The “made in China” framing still applies to where the product was manufactured. That part’s accurate. But manufacturing and fulfilment are two completely separate steps, and people keep conflating them. What Temu figured out is that fast delivery is a conversion driver, so they invested in the forecasting infrastructure to make it possible without eating the cost of next-day air freight on every order. The warehouse does the work. The algorithm fills the warehouse. I’m @jalaal_tweets, you’ll learn more about Data and Ai fluency if you follow me.

  If you only read this, the story seems to be summarized in one sentence: employment is too good → higher interest rates → valuation is under pressure. But what really makes Wall Street more uneasy is the structural crack hidden under the word ”good“. Let‘s look at the salary first. The average hourly wage in May increased by 3.4% year-on-year. Sounds good, but the CPI in April is 3.8%. Do a simple subtraction - the actual wage is negative. Everyone has more nominal money, but fewer things can be bought. Judging from the real purchasing power of workers, this is not ”economically good“ at all, but ”the more you work, the poorer you are“. Let’s look at the structure of employment. 170,000 is not evenly distributed. The leisure hotel industry has increased by 70,000, the local government has increased by 55,000, and the medical industry has increased by 35,000; while the industries that really reflect the cold and hot economy are shrinking: the financial industry has decreased by 22,000, and the information industry has continued to decline (down 11% since the peak in November 2022). Then there is the dark line of AI. According to the Challenger layoff report in May, AI has become the most cited reason for enterprises to announce layoffs, accounting for 40% - the highest record since the agency began tracking this category in 2023. In the first five months of 2026, AI-related layoffs have reached 87,714 people, far exceeding the 54,836 in the whole year of 2025. A study based on the salary data of 25 million ADP employees of Stanford University found that the employment of high-AI exposure positions (software development, customer service) in the age group of 22 to 25 has decreased by about 13% since the end of 2022, while the employment of older employees in the same position has stabilized or even increased. In other words, it is hotel waiters, government employees and nurses who support the 170,000 number; it is financial analysts, junior programmers and customer service representatives who are hollowed out. Name employment is increasing, and the quality of employment is deteriorating. There is an intuitive question: if employment is still growing, how can the economy ”sluggish“? Doesn‘t stagflation need a soaring unemployment rate to be established? No need. ”Stagnation“ in stagflation never refers to employment stagnation, but real output and real purchasing power stagnation. These two things can happen at the same time - and in the environment of supply shock, they are almost inevitably happening at the same time. Inflation in 2026 is mainly driven by oil prices - the Iranian war and tensions in the Strait of Hormuz push up energy costs. The characteristic of this cost-driven inflation is that things become more expensive not because people rush to buy, but because the raw materials used to produce things are expensive. In this environment, enterprises can not lay off people, but they will reduce production, reduce profits, and slow down expansion. The employment figures can be good for the time being, while the actual GDP growth rate is already going down. And AI plays a more delicate role here. In the first half of 2025, if information processing equipment and software investment (that is, the main body of data center construction) are excluded, the annualized growth rate of U.S. GDP is only 0.1%. AI-related capital expenditure - Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Meta totaled about 725 billion US dollars this year, a year-on-year increase of 77% - almost alone to support the nominal growth of the United States. But how much real productivity improvement has been exchanged for this amount of investment? At present, there is no obvious causal relationship. Now the improvement of labor productivity in the United States comes more from the ”deepening of capital“ - that is, the statistical effect of spending money on equipment itself - than the real revolution of efficiency.

  9. The Amazon Leadership Principles Resume Aligner "You are a senior recruiter at Amazon who evaluates every resume against Amazon's 16 Leadership Principles — because at Amazon, FAANG companies, and top tech firms, cultural alignment matters as much as technical skill, and your resume must prove both. I need my resume aligned with the specific values and culture of my target company. Align: - Company values research: identify the 5-8 core values or leadership principles my target company publicly promotes - Bullet point mapping: tag each resume achievement with the company value it demonstrates - Coverage gap scan: which company values have ZERO representation on my resume - Gap-filling bullets: write 3-5 new achievement statements from my real experience that fill the value gaps - Amazon alignment: if targeting Amazon, map to Customer Obsession, Ownership, Bias for Action, and Deliver Results - Google alignment: if targeting Google, emphasize Googleyness, intellectual humility, and collaborative problem-solving - Meta alignment: if targeting Meta, highlight Move Fast, Be Bold, and Focus on Impact - Startup alignment: emphasize scrappiness, wearing multiple hats, and building from zero to one - Consulting alignment: highlight structured thinking, client-facing impact, and leadership under ambiguity - Values-first summary: rewrite my professional summary to immediately signal cultural fit in the first 2 sentences Format as a values-aligned resume with annotations showing which company principle each bullet demonstrates. My target: [PASTE YOUR RESUME, TARGET COMPANY NAME, AND THEIR PUBLISHED VALUES OR LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES]"

  @RealKenOKeefe let explain more clearly: You can literally look up the names of the CEOs, board members, and shareholders (and then each shareholder firm's CEO/boards) of the 5 largest US corporations (with combined economic footprint BIGGER than all of Israel combined)... ... and see the vast majority of these people have Anglo-Saxon/Celtic/Germanic/Romance surnames - those with even remotely "Jewish" sounding surnames make up like 5-10 out of nearly 50 leadership seats! And that's if you assume anyone with an even remotely Jewish-sounding name is automatically enrolled in some sort of organized global Jewish conspiracy. White nominally "Christian" people have always run the US (and before that, Europe) - and they run the US/Europe now. - based on material and historical reality. But they sure love the fact that no one notices them, everyone keeps buying their goods and services, and blames all the criminality they commit on others! By blaming Israel all of these people can continue justifying buying Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Walmart etc. guilt-free. The moment you realize these massive corporations are the real problem - that's when things might begin to change.

  I made $3,500/month from one kids storybook. No paid ads. No Amazon ranking. Here is the Pinterest strategy that did it. For 3 months I got nothing from Pinterest. Then I changed one thing and everything shifted. I stopped writing my book title as the pin title. I started writing what parents searched. "Calming bedtime story for anxious toddlers." That phrase gets searched thousands of times monthly. My book was the answer. But my pin was invisible because I used the wrong title. The moment I switched to their search phrase my impressions went from 800 to 18,000 in 4 weeks. Here is the pin formula I use now. Title: their exact search phrase. Description: the problem it solves in their words. Image: one inside page. Never the cover. Link: directly to Amazon listing. Three pins per week. Different keyword each time. Same book. Same destination. Never stop. Pinterest is a search engine. People arrive with buying intent. They are already looking for your book. Your only job is to show up with the right words in the right place. AI Sales Rocket creates these pins automatically from my actual manuscript. It researches what parents already search. Posts three times per week to my boards. Every pin linking directly to Amazon. While it handles Pinterest it runs Facebook Instagram LinkedIn WordPress Threads and Bluesky simultaneously.

  @andrew_ber92242 @Avabelly__ How much do you tip your UPS or FedEx driver when delivering heavy packages to your door they are taking care of you and not only that they are carrying heavier and larger items unlike a fukin server at a restaurant so I'm guessing Amazon gets 40% tip of whatever your item cost.

  Investing Coach (StocksCryptoPropertyStartups) (@CoachDebs_spa) reported 50 minutes ago

  A child born today will probably need well over £500,000 to buy the lifestyle many of their parents take for granted. Yet most parents aren’t investing for them. They’re saving. And those are not the same thing. Before people get upset, hear me out… If inflation averages just 3% a year, prices roughly double every 25 years. That means: 🏠 Houses get more expensive. 🎓 Education gets more expensive. 🚗 Cars get more expensive. 🍗 Even your cheeky Nando’s gets more expensive. Everything outside is quietly moving away from us. Meanwhile, many people are trying to solve a moving problem with stationary money. Imagine your child is 5 years old. You decide to invest £100 per month. Not gamble. Not chase crypto memes. Not try to become the next Wolf of Wall Street. Just consistently invest into a diversified stock market fund through a Stocks & Shares ISA. Historically, markets have returned around 10% per year over long periods. At that rate, by the time they turn 18, that £100 per month could potentially become around £40,000 to £50,000+. By age 25? Potentially £100,000+ if left untouched. That’s the difference between: ❌ “I hope they figure it out.” and ✅ “I’ve given them options.” A deposit. A business. Further education. Travelling the world. A safety net. The reality is that most parents are already spending £100 a month. A few takeaways. A couple of subscriptions. Some impulse Amazon purchases. A few “treat yourself” moments. Again, nothing wrong with that. But imagine if just one of those £100 notes each month was working harder than you. This isn’t really about money. It’s about choices. The greatest gift you can leave your children isn’t an inheritance. It’s a head start. That’s why I tell parents the same thing I tell my Stock Pickers Academy clients: Treat investing like a bill. Not because you want your children to be rich. Because you don’t want inflation making them poor. What age were you when you made your first investment?

  Rates go down, rents go up. Then rent control so landlords evict and re-lease. Shops that are "cash" launderers thrive. Amazon increase costs on small traders that sell through them. Small traders cease or sell in US, Europe instead. Less rates, less VAT, more tax avoidance.

  Got an email from Amazon telling me they were charging me twice for a set of books I ordered in April. Instead of receiving the book set I ordered I received a pair of size 10 black children's sweatpants. I immediately went to the website to figure out what to do and it was counter productive. Despite the fact that I explicitly explained that I received childrens clothes and not books, Amazon expected me to return the books I had not received and promised to send a "new" set of books immediately but would be charged again for the "second' set if I didn't return the "first" set by June 1st. I could NOT get around this online. I had to call. Calling Amazon is one of the most annoying things you can ever go through. I wound up screaming at an AI that is poorly designed for about 10 minutes before it connected me to a person. When I FINALLY got to a person, she was a nice lady speaking very broken English in what sounded like a VERY loud Indian based call center. She assured me that I need not return the non existent books OR the sweatpants though I told her I would. No, she said. Keep them. Throw them away. You will get your your books tomorrow. I asked her about Amazon's site telling me they would recharge me if I didn't return the non existent books by June 1st. She told me to disregard that. Got emails and everything. And then I got recharged last night. Called Amazon again. This time I got a male who spoke much better English. He processed the refund. What a pain in the butt.
