Not PP, but Fedex did have a similar reduction in revenue. However, this could be the fact that Amazon has shifted a lot of its business to USPS as well as internally. Fedex and UPS are losing out big time. The tell will be in Amazon's numbers, which will be released after the markets close today. |

The same clown that predicted a "storm brewing," "incoming recession in 2023" and 2023 being a rough year for markets (https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/video/there-is-an-economic-storm-brewing-2023-will-be-a-rough-year-for-markets-david-rosenberg~2538589) and a Great Recession like crash in 2022/2023: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-crash-2008-financial-crisis-bear-predictions-david-rosenberg-2022-5. I mean, if you continually (and erroneously) predict doom and gloom, you're going to be rewarded eventually... |
Amazon had pretty strong numbers. *AMAZON 4Q EPS $1.00, EST. 78C *AMAZON 4Q AWS NET SALES $24.20B, EST. $24.22B *AMAZON SEES 1Q NET SALES $138.0B TO $143.5B, EST. $142.01B |
They've correctly predicted 10 of the last 3 recessions! |

A Fox anchor, Larry Kudlow, just said on Fox, “I was wrong about the slowdown and the recession. Everyone was wrong.” This is the truth. There is no recession. There is no slowdown. Our economy is strong & booming because of President Biden. Period. Be loud & proud.
Republicans heads are exploding tonight I hope they rot. |

Yeah, Microsoft's latest earnings report showed business segment revenue growth ranging from 5%-18%: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/investor/earnings/fy-2024-q2/press-release-webcast. Oh, and a bunch of those layoffs were related to its acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Similarly, Google experienced 13% year over year revenue growth: https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/30/24056132/google-spent-two-billion-on-layoffs-severance-fourth-quarter-earnings-2023 So uh, these companies are doing just fine. More than fine. They hired a too aggressively during the pandemic and are now just rightsizing the ship. But thanks for playing, MAGA doomers. Nothing to see here! |
To be fair, not everyone was wrong. 😄 |
Could be “rightsizing,” could be more corporate greed. It’s not like firing people and then making their remaining colleagues take on more work is exactly a new idea in business. |
Sure whatever. It could be to pad the CEO's salary or make the quarterly earnings numbers. The point is, these companies are growing revenue at a steady clip. They're not in trouble as the MAGAs would like you to think. |
