Amazon 'plans to cut 10,000 jobs' - roughly 1% of its global workforce - this week: Workers in its devices organization, retail division and human resources will be affected in the largest jobs cut in the company's history

Amazon executives are set to lay off 10,000 people in corporate and technology jobs as early as this week, according to the New York Times

The cuts will primarily focus on Amazon's devices, as well as its retail division and human resources

If the company goes through with the proposal to cut 10,000 jobs, it would represent a loss of about 3 percent of Amazon's corporate employees

But it would be less than 1 percent of its global workforce of more than 1.5million, which primarily comprises hourly workers

Unverified but this is a comment on a youtube prepper type video.

Neil, we are already in the recession.

I spoke to a delivery driver yesterday (DPD), and asked how they are doing.
He has gone from working 6 days a week, 8am to 3pm, to now just 4 days a week, working only until midday. He usually dropped off 150 items a day, and is now to 100, so that is less than half the deliveries from a few months ago, and has proceeded to lose a grand a month in income.

The roller-coaster ride of the next decade has started its first descent. Hold on tight guys!

Amazon posts first unprofitable quarter since 2015 with loss of $3.8 BILLION and slashes its forecast sending shares tumbling 10% as lockdown-lifting batters online shopping sales

This one about to do a Netflix drop? Come on - why is no one on ADVFN talking about the biggest stock that influences so much in our lives? You've got to watch the movers and the shakers.

For the record the AMZN stock price is $2,891

It's been "distributing" (Stage 3 Weinstein) for the last 12 months. With the NASDAQ looking weak, I can't see much to be bullish about in general.

The next logical area of support, could be $2,000. I would be surprised if it got much lower than that.

If proof were needed that nothing succeeds like success, look no further than the multi-millionaire singer-actress, Barbra Streisand, who has discovered a talent for playing the stock markets.
Streisand told Fortune magazine she started online share trading early last year, after a doctor friend told her about the impotence drug, Viagra. She bought Pfizer stock at $89 and became hooked when the price quickly shot up to $120.

....

The first day, I bought eBay and Amazon and they dropped 20 points each at least. I couldn't even call her ... I was having heart palpitations."

~June 1999.

I wonder if she held on to AMZN through the dotcom bear market.

Apologies for disturbing everybody but one of my own stalkers NIGOIL, often referred to as NOBOIL by most users of the RKH message board users will be arriving shortly to post more lies / exaggerations / falsehoods & inaccuracies, so I'm leaving a trail of bread crumbs for him to follow.

Come on Bravo Two Zero, keep up fellah, weren't you in the Paras or was it Special Forces ?

Four new renewable energy projects planned for Amazon’s net-zero push

PowerWind

By Andrew Fawthrop 13 Mar 2020

Solar and wind-focused renewable energy projects will generate 300MW of clean power for Amazon data centres in Australia, Europe and the US

Tech giant Amazon has accelerated its push to reach net-zero emissions by 2040 with the announcement of four new renewable energy projects with a combined capacity of 300 megawatts (MW).

The solar and wind ventures, located in Australia, Europe and the US, are expected to produce around 840,000 megawatt-hours (MWh) of clean energy annually, supplying renewable electricity to the grids that serve its power-hungry data centres and office buildings.

These new schemes add to Amazon’s existing 26 utility-scale wind and solar projects that will generate more than 2.2 gigawatts (GW) of renewable capacity and deliver more than 6.2 million MWh of clean energy annually once fully operational.


Renewable energy projects part of Amazon target for net zero by 2040

Major tech companies have taken significant steps to reduce their carbon footprints by installing green energy infrastructure to power their operations, with Microsoft committing in January to be exclusively renewable power-dependent by 2025.

Earlier this year, Amazon’s billionaire chief executive Jeff Bezos – the world’s richest man – pledged $10bn to investments addressing climate change through a new initiative dubbed the Bezos Earth Fund.

The online retailer and data services company has set out a policy to reach net zero 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement’s 2050 schedule, a goal enshrined in its Climate Pledge policy launched in 2019.

Amazon’s vice president of sustainability Kara Hurst said: “These new renewable energy projects are part of our roadmap to 80% renewable energy by 2024 and 100% renewable energy by 2030.

“In addition to the environmental benefits inherently associated with running applications in the cloud, investing in renewable energy is a critical step toward addressing our carbon footprint globally.”


Wind and solar ventures planned for Australia, Europe and the US

Amazon’s latest plans include a 60MW solar project in New South Wales, Australia, which is expected to come online next year with an annual electricity generation capacity of 142,000 MWh.

Two of the new renewable ventures will be located in Europe, serving power grids in Spain and Sweden.

A 50MW solar farm will be built in Zaragoza, expected to begin operations in 2021, while in Sweden a 122MW onshore wind project in Västernorrland will supply clean power from 2022 onwards.

Finally, a 65MW solar facility is being planned for the US in Halifax County, Virginia – marking Amazon’s eleventh renewable energy project in the state.

It is expected to produce more than 150,000 MWh of green electricity annually.

Virginia Congressman Denver Riggleman welcomed the tech firm’s commitment to renewable energy projects in the region, saying they will help to “create clean jobs” for local workers.


Data centres prime targets for clean energy switch

Vast data centres such as those used by Amazon to power its computing infrastructure and host cloud services demand huge and constant supplies of electricity to keep them running smoothly and securely.

The International Energy Agency estimates that data centres consume about 1% of the world’s entire electricity supply – and as more and more critical processes become digitised, this figure is destined only to increase.

With that in mind, large tech companies like Amazon and Microsoft are taking steps to secure renewable sources of power as they seek to keep investors happy by demonstrating a commitment to reducing their carbon emissions and tackling climate change.

Even the title of this thread is hilarious 😂

Amazon has been performing amazingly well lately and it's still undervalued! How crazy is that!?

Can you believe the UK government gave NHS data away to Amazon for free, so they could profit from it immensely by leveraging Amazon Transcribe Medical on AWS.

Bears badly burnt since post 17 above and 100% up since thread opened - Usually never wise to bet against momentum either way -

Anyone going to open a general thread - Some are forecast $3000 within the next 2 years.

Amazon shares will reach $3,000 in 2 years without the company really trying, Piper Jaffray says
