Hey, so here’s the deal with Amazon right now. You know, the giant that’s got its paws in like, EVERYTHING? Yeah, they’re kinda freaking out about these U.S. tariffs. Especially the ones screwing with goods from China. It’s like they woke up and realized, “Oh snap, over HALF of what we sell is from third-party folks, and uh, a bunch of them get their stuff from China. Yikes.”
So, Amazon’s kinda poking its third-party sellers, just trying to get the deets. Like, “Hey, how’s it going with the whole tariff mess? You guys still good? Or are we spiraling into chaos?” It’s pretty clear they’re bracing themselves for potential chaos—totally not what you need with peak shopping craziness lurking.
Now, let’s talk numbers, because that’s what all the finance nerds care about, right? Amazon shares are chilling at $180.20, kind of just hanging out there. They’ve dipped a little, down by $1.98 or 1.05% or whatever finance math magic they use. The stock’s in some kind of limbo, hovering between the 50-hour moving average at $178.90 and the 100-hour average at $185.31. It’s like, “Are we going up? Are we going down? Who knows?”
Meanwhile, the big dogs in the stock market, those indices, are doing their own little dance. Started the day all pumped up—Dow, S&P, NASDAQ were feeling the groove, then they kinda just… settled? At one point, the Dow was partying with a 266-point lead! S&P, NASDAQ were boogying too. By the end, not so much—Dow up 0.03%, S&P 0.08%, NASDAQ 0.03%. Basically flatlining after a wild day. Markets, man. They do their thing.
All in all, everything feels a bit shaky, like walking on jello. So grab your popcorn, ‘cause this show ain’t over. 🍿
