>@Much_Blacksmith_9865 I'm not sure what you're trying to say with this post. Are you trying to provide information on Amazon's recent financials? If so, then thank you for the update.

Maybe this will shed light to all the headline ER "traders".

"wHy StONk doWN, bEaT EPs"

Yeah well buddy no one was happy to see AWS slowing growth and this graphic does a great job of why people are not happy about that.

Plus bad Q4 guidance.

Investors probably starting to go "Hey amazon can you go from that we losing money to grow to just profit on the main business" and Amazon said yeah no lol.

What happens when China invades Taiwan, US stops imports from china, and Amazon has nothing to sell?

This just highlights how much of a juggernaut APPL is. AAPL revenue is double.

Edit: this is not true, I looked at an incorrect graphic. Still beast but not that beast.

Bezos ain't got it.

I just don't think he has the love for technology and human life that it takes to take Amazon to the next level. He got caught up in the profits like most do. None of these dudes are nerds or geeks. They're sell outs. Except maybe Elon, but he's disappointing in his own way.

So AMZN financials are shit? Thanks we knew that before.

They had a decrease of -19,X bn in FCF for Q3 btw. Let that sink in.

Edit: Everybody shits on META, but they are FCF positive despite huge R&D costs which might lead to something. the real fuck up is AMZN imho. warehouses..yeah right fucking geniuses over there.

It’s insane Apple is higher than Amazon?

Brawmethius t1_iuibhc2 wrote

Yes exactly that. With out AWS they run at a loss.

What did we find out at Q3?

AWS slowing growth.

Or in other words; Amazon effectively came out and said there is a chance we return to operating at a quaterly loss.

Expecting additional costs to revenue and slowing revenue.

Look at the profit margin for AWS compared to the entire rest of Amazon’s business.

AWS

  • Revenue = $20.8B
  • Operating Profit = $5.4B

Rest of Amazon

  • Revenue = $106.3B
  • Operating Profit (Loss) = ($2.98B)

If Amazon were to immediately sell off everything except for its AWS portion of the company, it would (theoretically) increase profits by ~$3B. Everything other than AWS looks like a money sink.

I believe that Cost of Revenue are generally direct/variable costs while operating expenses are fixed/indirect costs. The cost of revenue would include things like the cost of the goods sold, whereas operating costs would include things like electricity/lease/employee salary costs.

depends on if they have enough legit blackmail on enough key politicians.

The military industrial complex is also a huge lobby and would certainly push to send resources (and Taiwan is arming up as we speak $$).

Does Amazon breakdown the revenue for their devices?

IcarusOnReddit t1_iuigbke wrote

Hmmm. Hard to say. I think it’s safe to say that Russian blackmail/bribes are an influential factor on the GOP versus the dems, but have we seen enough to know what the pressure situation is in China? Speaking of money, is it good for Chinese stocks if Rs win the midterms? Does Russian influence carry over to China in a similar manner for US politicians? Will NIO be great again?

Why do people think it makes it easier to understand the financials of a business.

It would take me 10x the time to figure out what is going on then if this were in a table.

Apple has about 90B quaterly revenue, Amazon has 130B.

Apple has better margins and lower total overhead. They are better at turning their revenue into profit.

In theory why Amazon got run up to 100 P/E is if they could maintain this revenue stream and bring down their costs they would become more profitable than Apple.

This last Q3 earnings reminded investors that is not in the next year.

If you control the full market at a loss eventually governments will crack down to prevent becoming a monopoly. And the unfair practice of “buying market share”

And this would be very damaging.

I think this graph is a good example to invest in MSFT. Specifically their Azure cloud services.

No they won’t. Governments only crackdown if a monopoly is hurting the public to make obscene profits. If a company is losing money, hrs hard to argue they are hurting the public

They are a net issuer of shares and they rely on stock based compensation a lot to retain talent, to the tune of $17.7B in the last 12 months. Even if the company didn’t care about their stock price, their employees sure do.

Accountants can make the numbers look however they want. This is especially true with "Operating profit", a massive investment several years ago is now generating cash, but without knowing the depreciation of that initial investment, the operating profit number means nothing.

This is what happens when you tax profit. They pay barely any taxes.

Tax revenue instead.

What's "Cost of Revenue"? Debt payments?

Edit: NVM - It's another way of saying Cost of Goods sold (COGS)
