Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
Mike Nolan 9/14/2016 5:48:14 AM

That's a valid point Mitch. I have some friends who go to Barnes & Noble to peruse books, then order them from #Amazon right from their mobile devices, and get that same book later in the day. $BKS $AMZN

Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
Mitch Reynolds 9/14/2016 5:46:31 AM

I just don't see how $BKS can ever hope to compete with power houses such as #Amazon. Barnes & Noble has much higher costs due to having to maintain brick and mortar stores. And now that $AMZN is offering same day delivery on many items, they are eating away at one of the few competitive advantages that $BKS could offer - getting items right away.

Will Jet.com Save Walmart from Amazon’s Fury?
Terrence Howard 8/17/2016 9:58:08 PM

I agree. #Amazon ($AMZN) is exceptionally innovative. #Walmart ($WMT) is exceptionally behind the times (any one who has ever used instore pickup knows what I mean - waiting an hour for someone to visually check each box for your name since they have no tracking technology). But #Jet is decidedly average. The pairing won't help Walmart much.

While I agree that #Walmart clearly needs to enhance its ability to innovate to better compete with #Amazon, I'm still baffled as to why they think #Jet is the answer. I've used both sites and Jet is no Amazon. Doesn't come close. $WMT $AAPL

#Walmart is paying $3 billion for #Jet? Why? So not impressed with that company. I know Walmart is being hurt by #Amazon, but Jet isn't the answer. $WMT $AMZN

Amazin’ Amazon

@[Stock Loverrrrr](user:30664), do you mean in general or in the streaming video market? #Amazon is already far larger than #Netflix as a company. But Prime members get its streaming for free. Hard for Netflix to compete with that. $AMZN $NFLX

Interesting to see how much of an impact $AMZN is having all over the world. As it keeps expanding, the price will continue to keep rising. Just as you thought, #Amazon was at it's biggest, it keeps building. I'm interested to see if Amazon will ever be on the same level as Netflix. Never say never with that kind of stuff, especially with Amazon's deep pockets.

Ebay Acquiring Companies to Improve User Experience and Conversion

Impressed #eBay is being so aggressive with it's acquisitions. They've let #Amazon completely eclipse them when it comes to innovation. $EBAY $AMZN.

Domino’s Unveils “DRU” Unmanned Pizza Delivery Robot, On Trial In 7 Countries

@[Annalisa Christina Kraft](user:4932), where can we see what #Amazon's #robot looks like?

Domino's Unleashes Pizza-Delivery-Robot As 2 Out Of 3 Americans Expect Jobs To Be Automated
Cynthia Decker 7/25/2016 2:48:22 PM

According to @[Tyler Durden](user:4802)'s article, $MCD and $DPZ are already doing it. #Domino's robot delivery men remind me of #Amazon's idea of using delivery drones.

Can eBay Compete With Amazon?
David Reynolds 7/19/2016 11:21:01 PM

As much as I like #eBay, there's no way they'll every beat #Amazon. Amazon is far more innovative, has better customer service, more buyer protection, a proper review system, and an entire echo system with Echo, Kindle Fire, etc. $AMZN $EBAY

Amazon.com, Inc. Riding High On Prime Day
Carl Schwartz 7/12/2016 2:53:16 PM

So true. Would you believe half of American households are now #AmazonPrime Members? $AMZN must be doing something right! #primeday #amazon.

Amazon.com, Inc. Riding High On Prime Day
Alexa Graham 7/12/2016 2:48:01 PM

While it's true that #Amazon said its #PrimeDay sold more than on Black Friday, most customers were very disappointed and Twitter list up with the #PrimeDayFail hashtag. Honestly, I found this year's offerings to be even more of a let down. $AMZN

United Parcel Service Stock Analysis
Roger Morris 6/17/2016 3:20:21 AM

30% of #Amazon's $3 billion equates to about $1 billion in revenues for $UPS. #UPS has about $60 billion in revenues so losing $AMZN’s business would reduce UPS’ revenues by only 1.67%. Hardly significant.

Saw this discussion on the homepage activity feed and had to add my 2 cents. @[Craig Newman](user:7650), while that amount is significant, #Amazon only uses #UPS for about 30% of it's deliveries.

What about how #Amazon launched it's own truck shipping company and its 20% stake that it purchased in #AtlasAir last month for air deliveries? Seems to me that they are looking to ditch #UPS. I would think that would be a major threat to the company and it's bottom line. $AMZN $AAWW $UPS
