4kodiak/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images Amazon.com ( AMZN ) said it plans to cut about 16,000 corporate jobs as it steps up efforts to streamline its organization. U.S.-based employees affected by the cuts will have 90 days to look for new roles internally and will receive severance and other transition support, according to a blog post Wednesday by Beth Galetti, Amazon’s senior vice president of people experience and technology. “We’ve been working to strengthen our organization by reducing layers, increasing ownership, and removing bureaucracy,” Galetti said. "While we’re making these changes, we’ll also continue hiring and investing in strategic areas and functions that are critical to our future. We’re still in the early stages of building every one of our businesses and there’s significant opportunity ahead," Galetti added. Amazon ( AMZN ) had about 1.57M employees as of Sept. 30, the majority of whom work in warehouses. Its corporate staff numbers roughly 350,000, making the latest layoffs about 4.6% of that workforce. The latest cuts come just months after Amazon ( AMZN ) said it would eliminate 14,000 roles. Together, the reductions mirror the sweeping layoffs carried out in late 2022 and early 2023, when roughly 27,000 employees were let go.

Team, I’m heartbroken by the events in Minneapolis, and my prayers and deepest sympathies are with the families, with the communities, and with everyone that’s been affected. This is a time for deescalation. I believe America is strongest when we live up to our highest ideals, when we treat everyone with dignity and respect no matter who they are or where they’re from, and when we embrace our shared humanity. This is something Apple has always advocated for. I had a good conversation with the president this week where I shared my views, and I appreciate his openness to engaging on issues that matter to us all. I know this is very emotional and challenging for so many. I am proud of how deeply our teams care about the world beyond our walls. That empathy is one of Apple’s greatest strengths and it is something I believe we all cherish. Thank you for all that you do. Tim

Data centers need power, and this industrial giant aims to help customers manage it. Artificial intelligence (AI) is amazing, but it doesn't live in the ether. It is a fancy computer program running on servers housed in data centers. That's the story behind Eaton's (ETN +2.68%) $4.3 billion business providing electrical products that manage power for data centers. There could be years of growth ahead for this business as AI continues to expand. What does Eaton do? Roughly 75% of Eaton's revenue comes from electrical products. The rest is a mix of auto and aviation products. All the company's offerings help to manage power in some way. This is increasingly important as the world's demand for power, which is basically the backstop of modern society, grows. Electricity is the power source that enables artificial intelligence to function. Eaton is at the "center" of this developing technology, noting the $4.3 billion size of its data center-related business. However, that's not the end of the story. The company is specifically leaning into data center construction. For example, Eaton recently agreed to acquire Boyd Thermal, a maker of liquid-cooling technology for data centers. It is a $1.5 billion business that further entrenches Eaton in the AI data center space. Eaton is growing quickly, but investors are hot on the stock Eaton has an exciting story to tell. Investors who own it should be very pleased with the moves it is making and its recent financial results. In the third quarter of 2025, the industrial giant's sales rose 10%, while adjusted earnings rose a solid 8%. Notably, the company's backlog has grown 51% over the past two years, hinting at more growth to come.

In this article AMZN Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Workers unload Amazon packages from a vehicle on Cyber Monday in New York, US, on Monday, Dec. 1, 2025. Bess Adler | Bloomberg | Getty Images Amazon said on Wednesday it was cutting 16,000 jobs worldwide in the second major round of layoffs at the company in three months, as it restructures after pandemic-era over-hiring and expands the adoption of artificial intelligence tools. Reuters first reported last week that Amazon was planning a second round of job cuts as part of a broader goal of trimming about 30,000 corporate roles, with the layoffs expected to affect workers in Amazon Web Services, retail, Prime Video and human resources departments. Amazon slashed 14,000 white-collar jobs in late October, with CEO Andy Jassy stressing the need for the company to eliminate excessive bureaucracy by trimming operational levels and reducing the number of managers. "Some of you might ask if this is the beginning of a new rhythm – where we announce broad reductions every few months. That's not our plan," said Beth Galetti, senior vice president of people experience and technology at Amazon. Rising AI adoption The job cuts also underscore how artificial intelligence is changing corporate workforce dynamics. Significant improvements in AI assistants are helping enterprises execute duties from routine administrative tasks to complex coding problems with rapid speed and precision, driving widespread adoption. Jassy had said last summer that the increased use of AI tools would lead to more automation of duties, resulting in corporate job losses. Earlier this month, top executives at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting said while jobs would disappear, new ones would spring up, with two of them telling Reuters that AI would be used as an excuse by companies planning to cut jobs anyway. The 30,000 jobs would together represent a small portion of Amazon's 1.58 million employees, but nearly 10% of it...

MicroStockHub/iStock via Getty Images The Federal Reserve sets monetary policy in the United States with two main goals in mind. Its first goal is to provide for stable prices over time, which is to say the Fed has the job of managing financial conditions in the U.S. economy to keep inflation under control. Its second goal is to use the financial tools at its disposal to maximize employment in the U.S. economy. For the Fed, these are more than just goals. The U.S. Congress specifically mandates the Federal Reserve do these two things. Of these two jobs, Federal Reserve officials have been mostly concerned about combatting inflation since 2021, when the Biden administration unleashed high inflation with its fiscal policies. At the time, the Fed chose to let inflation rip because they committed to getting the economy back to full employment during 2020's coronavirus pandemic. But once that mark was hit in early 2022, they resumed pursuing their first task of inflation control. Before the pandemic, the Fed got to be pretty good at managing inflation, aiming to keep it under 2%, and from January 2000 through March 2021, inflation measured by the Consumer Price Index averaged 1.7% annualized growth. Letting inflation rip resulted in consumer prices growing at an annualized rate of 9.1%. That regime lasted up until 2022, when the Fed finally made combatting the runaway inflation they allowed a priority and started using their main tool of setting interest rates to make inflation grow at their desired target rate by hiking the Federal Funds Rate , which they did slowly at first, then aggressively until they achieved the inflation rate they desired. But what rate did they desire? Federal Reserve officials frequently toss out the idea they want prices to rise on average either around or no more than 2% in a year, the inflation target they informally set for themselves in 1996 and officially adopted in 2012. Consumer price data since the Fed's 2022 interest rate hikes began h...
