Is the next big tech stock thing, Chinese tech stocks?
There's some evidence that the money that has left big U.S. tech stocks such as Facebook (FB), Netflix (NFLX), Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) on some recent days has been headed into big Chinese tech stocks such as Tencent Holdings (TCEHY), Alibaba (BABA), and...

Amazon to the earnings rescue after Facebook plunge
A day after Facebook (FB) told Wall Street analysts to expect slower growth for the rest of 2018 (and saw its stock plunge 18.96%) Amazon (AMZN) beat Wall Street earnings projections by a massive $2.58 a share, reporting earnings for the second quarter of $5.07 versus...

The tool goes out to select merchants for test later this month,

Did Intel and Amazon finally break the sell on earnings beat pattern today?
Okay, this obviously isn’t a Morning Briefing. I wanted to wait and catch the earnings announcements from Amazon, Intel, and Microsoft. All three beat earnings estimates–but this market hasn’t been very generous in rewarding earnings surprises (after Netflix) that is.

What President Trump can actually do about Amazon–and what you should do about Amazon
Another day’s worth of tweets by President Donald Trump attacking Amazon (AMZN) and another day of losses for the stock. At 3 p.m. Monday New York time Amazon shares were down another 5.21% (in the midst of a meltdown in the technology sector, I’d note, so the president doesn’t get all the credit/blame).

Clearly the President’s rhetoric has more short-term than long-term effects on the stock. But I don’t dismiss the President’s complaints as simply rhetoric
