Coinbase (COIN) rises 3% after the crypto exchange said it will cut around 14% of its workforce, citing a need to manage costs in volatile markets and amid advances in artificial intelligence. Eaton (ETN) falls 5% after the power equipment company gave an outlook for second-quarter profit below what analysts expected. Fabrinet (FN) drops 11%, unable to push higher a 58% year-to-date rally after a third-quarter adjusted earnings per share beat. Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) gains 5% after the payments processor said it is co-designing a Financial Crimes AI Agent with Anthropic’s Applied AI team. Firefly Aerospace (FLY) climbs 11% after the space and defense technology company reported revenue for the first-quarter that beat the average analyst estimate.

GlobalFoundries (GFS) gains 5% after posting revenue for the first quarter that matched the average analyst estimate. Inspire Medical (INSP) falls 18% after the medical devices company slashed its full-year revenue outlook, citing coding and reimbursement uncertainty for Inspire V, an implant to treat moderate-to-severe sleep apnea. Intel (INTC) rises 3% as Apple has held exploratory discussions about using the company — as well as Samsung Electronics — to produce the main processors for its devices in the US, according to people familiar with the matter. Iqvia (IQVA) falls 5% after the healthtech firm posted first quarter results. ON Semiconductor (ON) is down 4% after the chipmaker gave an outlook that is largely in line with expectations. Bloomberg Intelligence wrote that the forecast suggests a recovery in key markets will be slower than hoped. Palantir Technologies (PLTR) falls 3% after the software company reported first-quarter results that beat expectations on key metrics, although US commercial sales disappointed.

Rockwell Automation (ROK) gains 8% after boosting its adjusted earnings per share guidance for the full year. Shopify (SHOP) falls 7% as the commerce software maker’s revenue outlook suggests growth pace may be slowing down.

NormaJ (@nefraqueen) reported@themodpun These people are refusing to accept responsibility, then cry victim. Amazon has excellent delivery service and seniors can have their prescriptions delivered on a reoccurring basis. If the stupid people in the community would help them do it. Problem solved.

LUIZ (@isweluizz) reportedHyperscalers know this. Microsoft, Google, Amazon are spending hundreds of billions on data centers. But here's the problem: getting a new grid connection takes 3–5 years in most US markets. Interconnection queues are at all-time highs. You can have all the capital in the world. Without power, you build nothing.

Ms. Roundhill (@ms_roundhill) reported@awmayhall @amazon It took three years, my neighbor getting a gun pulled on him 4+ times, and an Amazon driver driving over my neighbor to finally convince them to fix their GPS to stop instructing their drivers to go through our sheep pastures. You'd think the signs and locked electric fence would clue the driver to look at the delivery instructions. Especially when there's a public road to get to my house
-
Rakshit (@raks_2015) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN Return already initiated. But this isn't just about return/refund. This was supposed to be a gift to someone. And its ruined now. Worst part is, this was DELIBERATE. A wrong, broken product with missing accessories in a correct package. And I have a Prime membership.

Adech Global Enterprises (@Beloved2026) reportedPrompt: "Act like a world-class researcher who meticulously checks their work. List the top 5 urgent and painful problems faced by [target customer], with supporting evidence from Reddit, Amazon, Facebook, and other real sources. For each problem, show me the exact language people use to describe the pain, where they're already trying to solve it, and what existing solutions are failing them." If people aren't already complaining about it, the idea is dead.

A✮ℤ (@tea_spiracy) reported@awmayhall @amazon Vote "not good" thumbs down and tell them instructions weren't followed. That will fix things.

Goutam Sinha Roy (@GoutamSinh75521) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN Sorry to say that there is no proper response from Amazon on my issue
-
Piyush Goel (@PiyushGoel2611) reported@AmazonHelp @AmazonHelp This is absolute nonsense. 15+ DAYS, broken locker, and all I get are copy-paste replies and fake assurances. Your system is a joke—no accountability, no action, just wasting customer time. Completely unacceptable and embarrassing service.
-
BDApocalypse (@BrainDrainApoc) reported@DarrigoMelanie Don’t forget your postal service also helps Amazon pay workers less. Because every time an underpaid Amazon Driver quits, Amazon runs that driver’s route down to your local post office to be delivered for half the price you pay when you mail something.
-
🇺🇸Tex-Purplex🇺🇸 (@TexusPurplexus) reported@WallStreetApes i dont have that problem.. bought an hp printer last year for 50 bucks. opted out of the service model. ran out of ink, bought no name ink off amazon for 27 bucks.. printer prints, get this, normally.. just me?
-
Redneck Rogue Elf, 🐿 Whisperer (@TheRogue_Elf) reported@ShamashAran Amazon deciding to use their own delivery drivers who get practically any training (like be mindful of fenced in yards because dogs) has continued to be a terrible idea. I miss them using the local post office. At least I knew it would be delivered the day maybe not exact time
-
Piyush Goel (@PiyushGoel2611) reported@AmazonHelp @AmazonHelp This is absolute garbage service. 15+ DAYS, broken locker, and now I’m being passed between “different teams” like a joke. No pickup, no refund, just excuses and copy-paste replies. Are you actually going to fix this or just keep wasting my time? Completely shameless.

Richard Reid (@reidrichard1972) reported@AmazonUK I need advice, my mother has an apartment in a retirement village and was told by a Amazon delivery driver that they are stopping delivery parcels to the apartments and dropping them off at reception. She lives on the third floor and has mobility issues.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@yaexxtra @amazon Amazon opening its logistics network (fulfillment, freight, distribution, parcel shipping) to all businesses means more direct competition for small logistics companies. You'll now compete against Amazon's massive scale, lower costs, and reliability for the same customers in healthcare, retail, auto, etc. Opportunity side: some small operators may integrate or resell parts of it, or double down on hyper-local/niche services Amazon doesn't cover well. Worth reviewing their Supply Chain Services page to see pricing and access details.
-
Adiat (@AdiatL) reportedHey @AmazonHelp I did get a link from you yesterday guys and the support has been... useless without an answer. How to contact a higher up or someone able to help me? I didn't get any answer to my problem aside a generic message over and over explaining nothing...
-
Chosen One 1111 (@1111_ChosenOne) reportedAmazon is affiliated with Satanists. Shut down every warehouse as no employee is safe from their spiritual attacks and death magic. It looks like a humiliation ritual to me.
-
K (@KAcct14) reported@Suzierizzo1 You don’t think that old ***** had 52 years to make good life choices so she’s not 72 and working at Amazon? Why’s that anyone’s ******* problem but her own?
-
Nero Venn (@NeroVenn84) reported@redpillb0t Amazon didn't beat the free market. They bought it and shut it down. #Amazon #Antitrust #BigTech
-
Mark Cline (@markecline) reported@awmayhall @amazon Didn't you read the sign that says to stand on one leg, pat your stomach with one hand, while making swirly motions around your head with the other, plus jumping up and down, turning counterclockwise? Because otherwise it's totally not delivered.
-
Tish Fullilove (@gr8flpraise) reportedAnti trust suits are needed in Banking & finance, grocery chains, insurance, hospitals & medical conglomerates, online distribution (Amazon & Walmart), etc. Small businesses need a leg up while corporate monopolies need to be broken down. Make America prosperous again.
-
Capital For Value (@Capital4Value) reported@SMB_HEFF I definitely don't disagree with the thought behind it. Amazon buying Whole Foods for the retail location component was very smart & definitely beneficial. My issue is that $GME is a slowly dying business. Not sure if Ebay really benefits from having that drag.

Tommi Pedruzzi (@TommiPedruzzi) reportedOne of my students got paid in his first week on Amazon. 4 to 7 book sales a day. He doesn't have a - Personl brand - Fancy website - Writing experience He just: • Targeted a problem already selling • Validated demand before writing • Used AI to speed up production • Focused on packaging, not perfection Most people think this takes months But it doesn’t It takes alignment with demand.

ARSENAL-TENT🔴⚪ (@Burna__boi) reportedArsenal midfielder Declan Rice, speaking to Amazon Prime about Myles Lewis-Skelly: "We have always known what Myles can do. I remember last year when he played so many games. Last year when he stepped up Real Madrid away at the Bernabeu at 18 - I thought: 'Wow what a player.' The manager has been tough on him behind the scenes. He has kept his head down and he has worked so hard. He is in early, gym and works hard. To be thrown in at the deep end and perform how he did is no surprise to me."
-
JMo (@xoxojmo) reported@awmayhall @marlopainter @amazon Perhaps, have you ever considered that the driver has to leave it there and take a picture of it at that location because Amazon needs a picture of it at the location? I dunno, man. Seems like you love to put down people by calling them dumb: first the driver and now me. That sounds like a you problem, ma’am. If you’re so ******* smart and perfect, why don’t you go deliver packages for ********* like you?
-
Fat Jacques 🏴☠️ (@Fat_Jacques) reported@54JohnBull It was my job to stick the stamps in the books. In the big petrol station wars, there were a lot of stamps. I hadn’t heard that Argos is in trouble, but I can imagine Amazon is killing them. Maybe they should change the Argos counters for Amazon collection points.
