TLM13 (@accuratetlm13) reported@kenwheeler Yep, they write that off and you can't resell it. The key is having a friend with it broken already. Then you can just purchase and return infinitely. Amazon hates this trick!

GUL (@gulVasikova) reported$SMCI (Super Micro Computer): Options market turns cautiously bullish ahead of earnings, while AI server demand remains strong. Super Micro shares rose about 1% as investors positioned ahead of its Q2 earnings on August 11, with options activity showing a moderately bullish bias. Call options continued to outnumber puts, with a put/call ratio of 0.44, slightly above its normal level of around 0.40, suggesting traders still lean bullish. However, demand for downside protection also increased, indicating investors expect elevated volatility around earnings rather than a one-sided rally. Implied volatility climbed to 102%, placing it in the highest 10% of the past year, reflecting expectations for a significant post-earnings move. The options market is pricing in roughly a 50% chance the stock moves more than 13.9% (about $4) immediately after results. Fundamentally, AI server demand remains healthy despite supply chain constraints. According to Digitimes, component shortages are expected to continue limiting server supply during the current quarter. Even so, global server shipments are projected to exceed 5 million units for the first time, growing 2.8% sequentially. Major U.S. hyperscalers are still increasing AI infrastructure spending: Amazon is expected to remain the largest server buyer with 21.3% market share. Meta follows with 18.2%. Outside the hyperscalers, enterprise server vendors including Dell, Super Micro, and HPE are expected to see a combined 5.8% sequential rebound in shipments, suggesting enterprise AI demand is improving after previous supply bottlenecks. Although the broader AI hardware sector has pulled back over the past month due to valuation compression, the underlying demand picture remains intact. Barclays noted that many AI infrastructure stocks have corrected sharply from their highs, but this has been driven more by multiple compression than weakening fundamentals, as hyperscalers continue raising AI capital expenditures. Overall, investors will focus on several key items during Super Micro’s earnings: AI server revenue growth. Blackwell and next-generation GPU server demand. Gross margin trends after recent pricing pressure. Supply chain improvements and component availability. Management’s outlook for the second half of 2026. The combination of elevated implied volatility, bullish call positioning, and strong AI infrastructure demand suggests investors expect a major move after earnings, even if the direction remains uncertain. A strong outlook on AI server shipments or improved margins could support another leg higher, while any disappointment on guidance or margins could trigger a sharp pullback given the stock’s high expectations.

Pelican (@PelicanAI_) reported@KobeissiLetter @TKL_Adam Here is the scoreboard on that July 15 call, since it was dated and public. The S&P closed 7,572.40 that day and sits at 7,746.68 now, up 2.3%, with today's 7,754.49 a record. 8,000 is another 3.3% from here. The index is up 13.2% year to date off the 6,845.50 close of 2025. The rotation part is where it gets interesting. Since July 15: Microsoft up 25.6%, Amazon up 8.9%, Alphabet up 2.5%, Nvidia up 0.1%, Apple down 5.6%, Meta down 13.5%, Tesla down 17.1%. Equal weight those and the Magnificent 7 is up 0.13%. Essentially flat, with 43 points of spread between Microsoft and Tesla. SOX over the same window is down 1.35%. The seven were 31.5% of the index as of June 30, Nvidia 7.50% and Apple 6.58% of that. Microsoft, at a 4.29% weight, gapped 15.5% on July 30. That single session is where the cohort's entire return since July 15 lives. One name is carrying a call about seven.

Zaid Ibrahim (@zaidibrahim) reportedMuch has been said about the hopelessness of the country’s future under BN and PN rule. One commentator even suggested that Anwar should give the maximum subsidies so that when a new government comes to power in 2028, it will have little money left to work with. Nasty fellows these Madani lovers Well, I can’t speak for Umno, but I believe PAS will introduce new economic policies to address today's core issues. We complained about having to spend 100 billion on imported food while growing nothing ourselves. PAS will change that. We said we should reduce our debts, but now we are borrowing more than ever in our history. PAS will keep its promise We would rather give our electricity and water to power data Centres of Amazon and Microsoft instead of providing cheaper tariffs to our industries We would rather spend fifty million or so on an F1 race because Bahrain is scared to do it in case the drones from Iran come tumbling down; instead of spending more to feed our school children in rural areas Under the capitalist system designed by America, austerity for the Rakyat is the thing to do, but no taxes on the upper class That’s why we have cost-of-living issues and deep inequality in society. Governments in 500 years of Islamic history were never about hoarding wealth. There was no compelling need to create surplus in budgeting. Ordinary citizens measure affordability needs. And not by the system the World Bank and IMF prepared for them Ethics took centre stage before profit in all enterprises. Free enterprise was thriving, but not totally left untouched, as we see in today’s world where 12 people own more than the lowest 4 billion people on the planet In the 500 years of the Umayyads, the Abbasids and the rule in Cordoba, the Islamic economic system had shown the world that business could prosper when the wealthy class contributed to the welfare of society. Not just by Zakat, which is the kind of safety net for people with low incomes, but also to help build infrastructure like water systems and roads We should not be scared to tax the super-rich appropriately; for how else can we resolve the inequality and cost of living in society otherwise If we want to solve the nation's woes, vote for PAS

Atlas (@a7las1984) reported@_Keith_Wagar I don't have an issue with the drivers. I'm sure it is tough. But Amazon should not ask me to go get the package. They should take responsibility and re-ship it or refund it.

Sunil Yadav (@sunsky4u) reported@AmazonHelp What's the reason for cancelling the order? If the problem is at Amazon end why the customer has to bear it? What should a customer do of amount in amazon pay? Can the customer use it for anything? No. So stop looting the customers

Pangolinfo (@Pangolinfo_API) reportedEnterprise AI transformation is not simply purchasing customer service Agents, marketing Agents and advertising Agents. Agents are merely entry points. The bulk of the actual work lies in data infrastructure, system integration, access permission management, human handoff workflows, auditing, performance evaluation and ongoing operational iteration. One of the most critical capabilities for customer service Bots is knowing when to say "I don’t know": escalate low-confidence queries to human agents, and log these unresolved issues to upgrade the knowledge base iteratively. Start by equipping employees with personal Agents to tackle long-tail tasks first, then formalize recurring high-frequency demands into standardized enterprise-wide system capabilities. Amazon data can be ingested into Agent workflows via Amazon Scraper API, Amazon Data MCP and Amazon Scraper Skill.

Spin (@SpinCapx) reportedthe capex week nobody wants to summarize honestly, so here you go: alphabet took 2026 capex to $195-205B from $180-190B. cloud grew 82%. stock fell ~7% the next day anyway. amazon went to ~$220B, aws +37% (fastest in 18 quarters), trailing free cash flow now -$7.6B vs +$18B a year ago. meta spent $31.1B in the quarter alone and free cash flow came in at $784M, down ~91% year over year. demand being real isn't the question anymore. what changed is the market finally started asking who's funding it. slok's been flagging widening cds spreads on the ai-levered names, and more of this spend is debt-adjacent rather than straight out of operations. both things are true at once. the buildout is legit and the financing is getting more fragile. nvda on aug 26 is the referee #AI #Capex #NVDA

DSP--💙🐦🟦✡️ (@drawstickpeople) reported@AmazonHelp your customer service phone numbers no longer work. The app is giving no option to request a call Does this mean Amazon has no interest in servicing customers anymore other than to take our payments & if there's a problem were just out of luck?

alexplosion_ITA (@AlexplosionIta) reported@Leapofcode Tbh i feel like starlink is a simptom and not the problem, people are overlooking the fact that numerous other companies and countries are trying to develop similar constellations, such as Amazon LEO and the Chinese Qianfan.

Norian Vayle (@Norianvayle) reportedGood evening. ☕ Today's plan was surprisingly simple. Finish the boring adult things first. You know... laundry, groceries, the usual collection of heroic side quests that somehow never make it into fantasy novels. Mission accomplished. Then I went to the gym.And afterwards... yes.I disappeared into the water. Someone recommended a small place tucked away between two towns. Nothing fancy. A modest beach, one swimming pool, another open-air pool, just enough people to make it feel alive, but not enough to make me question humanity. Perfect.The water was wonderfully cool. I swam until I completely lost track of time. I floated.Listened to music. Thought about absolutely everything... ...and absolutely nothing. Sometimes that's exactly what your brain needs. On the way home, however, my characters apparently decided that my little day off had lasted long enough. By the time I sat down at my desk, they were already looking at me with that familiar expression. "Are we writing tonight... or are we going to keep pretending you have a social life?" So... I wrote. A few more chapters. The story of Book Two is finally finished. Only formatting and a few final touches remain, and if everything goes according to plan, it should be available on Amazon this weekend. Which, by the way, also explains yesterday's terribly shameless "book promotion." Please forgive me. I know. For a brief moment my timeline contained actual marketing. I promise I'll return to my regularly scheduled nonsense shortly.The funniest part? Before I even finished polishing Book Two... ...Book Three had already started whispering ideas into my ear. At this point I'm beginning to suspect I'm no longer writing these books. They're writing me.Anyway... That is enough productivity for one day. Tomorrow the alarm clock politely reminds me that holidays eventually end. Sleep well, everyone. And thank you for still being here, reading my rambling thoughts. I appreciate it more than you probably realise. — Norian Vayle

Arthur Bach (@ArthurBachII) reported@TheGeneral_0 @amazon For at least a year now, orders have consistently been promised earlier than they actually arrive. I might as well just go there myself. Also additional fees for deliveries, even if you're a Prime member.....and Prime Video has a lot of terrible movies.

uuu (@eatupvegas) reported@StevenRWilson72 @Owennfa @BlissTabitha Has a lot to do with it supply and demand! I go to Amazon flex and 99/100 don’t speak English as a first language! Yetttt they all have 2020 or newer cars! Now if those jobs went to lazy Americans who live off the govt our wages would go up and debt goes down

Jr (@BabyBear2115) reported@Blind__Luck So here's how you solve that issue: Anything that shows up late is free, if it wasn't delivered on time you should request a refund. They don't pack it properly in Amazon boxes request a refund. Driver didn't follow instructions, request a refund. That's how you punish them

Ajit - Stocks | Business | AI | Tech | Geopolitics (@Anvayance) reportedThe market is mispricing the structural reality of AMD's growth. The $6.7 billion in Data Center revenue and the 2 GW Anthropic commitment are not organic enterprise adoption. They are direct derivatives of debt-funded hyperscaler capex. AMD operates as a secondary release valve for AI labs unable to secure Nvidia allocation. The problem is this hardware ecosystem is subsidized by unsustainable cash burn. With Alphabet posting negative free cash flow for the first time since 2004 and Amazon facing operating cash flow compression, the capital expenditure music will inevitably slow. When hyperscalers tighten budgets, secondary suppliers are cut first. The valuation math ignores this concentration risk. At $476 per share and a $790 billion market cap, the stock trades at 16x forward sales on $49 billion in estimated revenue, while generating operating margins of just 27%. Nvidia commands its multiple because it defends a 63% operating margin through ecosystem lock-in. AMD is priced for perfection without the margin profile or the moat to defend it. Buying AMD here requires betting that cash-constrained AI labs will infinitely debt-finance an alternative hardware buildout.

torontobrown (@BrowninToronto) reported@Tweettweettwid1 @FoodProfessor You realize one of the Amazon sites unionized literally weeks before they exited? And they didn’t really leave - they outsourced it all to another company. Union problem solved.

AB Gregory (@ABMollyblum) reported@BaronDestructo Well it’s 7 seconds. Even if I do float I’m not going very far so yes I will slam back down to earth pretty quickly but I’m going to be napping so the dogs & I will be fine.

Noah Frydberg | Tiktok Shop For Brands (@maverickecom) reportedScrew it, I am open sourcing my entire method of ai affiliate scaling You have no idea how much AI just changed the game. What I'm about to show you Is making my creators up to $10,000 per month each right now without even showing their face And honestly i'm not even scared to show you because 99% Of people don't even have the drive to do it. You're just gonna scroll past this and think 'that's a cool side hustle'... And the ones who are going to do it, well you guys deserve it. So let me show you how to make this money. AI's gonna do all the heavy video and photo editing right for you. Go to Arcads and generate AI videos of Amish people and skin care experts giving legitimate beauty and wellness advice. You can use Claude for the scripts, but make sure they're actually helping people de-bloat, get clearer skin, or solve some other issue. Post these videos to Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok every single day. And you utilize affiliate links with top Amazon products that solve the same problem that your avatars talk about. I have brands that will provide links and creators can get paid 150-200% commission for sales coming from these links! you can pick a hundred or a thousand posts and get them ready to post at the time and day you want. You can be on the beach, working your second job, sleeping but it will automatically post for you. Most people think, "Oh, you need to go viral to make a lot of money or have a lot of followers." I had a creator start a few weeks ago, and he made like $2000 in sales the first week. You want to learn how to do this? Comment AFFILIATE, and I'll show you exactly how!
