amzn AMZN Stock Slips Below $260 Pre-Nvidia Q1 as Spending Concerns Overshadow the AWS Strength Due to growing infrastructure spending, declining cash flow, and widespread big tech selling, investor concerns have not been allayed despite Amazon's impressive results and quickening AWS growth. Written by: Skerdian Meta • • 3 min read • Quick overview Amazon's stock continues to decline despite strong Q1 earnings, driven by concerns over rising infrastructure spending and cash flow issues. AWS remains a key growth driver, reporting a 28% year-over-year revenue increase, but investor confidence is shaken by heavy capital expenditures. The company's aggressive $200 billion spending plan raises questions about future profitability as free cash flow has significantly decreased. Investor sentiment is cautious following Berkshire Hathaway's exit from Amazon, highlighting a shift towards selectivity in high-spending tech companies. Live AMZN Chart AMZN 0.0000 MARKETS TREND [[AMZN-graph]] Due to growing infrastructure spending, declining cash flow, and widespread big tech selling, investor concerns have not been allayed despite Amazon’s impressive results and quickening AWS growth. Amazon Shares Continue Sliding Despite Earnings Beat Amazon stock continued weakening throughout May, falling below the $260 level as traders reduced exposure to large technology names ahead of upcoming earnings from Nvidia. On Tuesday, Amazon shares dropped another 2.10%, extending the recent downtrend despite the company reporting stronger-than-expected first-quarter results. The negative reaction highlights how investor focus has shifted away from headline earnings growth and toward concerns surrounding spending levels, profitability sustainability, and valuation pressure across the technology sector. Additional selling pressure emerged after news that Berkshire Hathaway fully exited its position in Amazon. While the move does not necessarily reflect broader institutional sentiment, it reinforced...

LumerB/iStock via Getty Images Fund performance The abrdn High Income Opportunities Fund returned -0.39% ((Institutional Class shares, net of fees)), compared to the ICE BofA US High Yield Constrained Index, which returned -0.55% during the quarter. ¹ The gaming sector, including the recovery in Affinity Gaming's performance, benefited the Fund. Among other individual credits, our high-conviction holding Venture Global also contributed with its bond performance leading to impressive total returns. Conversely, the building materials sector detracted from relative performance. Within this sector, Cornerstone Building Brands, which was among more challenged and volatile issuers, underperformed. The wireline integrated and services sector also weighed on performance. Cable One ( CABO ) was unfavorable, following weaker-than-expected earnings from investment-grade peer Comcast ( CMCSA ), which unsettled cable names. In terms of ratings, our exposure to lower-quality CCC credits was additive to performance while non-rated and BB rated bonds were negative. Market review The first quarter was eventful for markets as trade and geopolitical developments continued to test investor sentiment. Early on, President Donald Trump renewed tariff threats toward Europe and Canada before softening his stance, reinforcing a pattern of sharp but temporary risk-off moves. The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady during the quarter after making three cuts late in 2025. Chair Powell emphasized data dependence over timelines, pushing expectations for additional easing further out. Meanwhile, tensions related to Ukraine, US–Europe relations, and particularly the Middle East, resurfaced, driving episodic demand for safe-haven assets and contributing to elevated cross-asset volatility. Military strikes involving Israel and the US against Iran contributed to a sharp escalation in regional tensions. Iran subsequently launched retaliatory strikes across the region, leading to airspace closure...

Iran Teaching Civilians How To Shoot: Public Tutorials On State TV & In Marketplaces Amid stalled peace talks and ongoing tit-for-tat threats, Iranians are reportedly arming themselves in preparation a potential US ground invasion, or renewal of major military action in its skies. CNN cameras captured individual citizens being given gun component lessons in the middle of streets and in busy bazaars . Also state TV has been featuring detailed tutorials and presentations on how to effectively use the AK-47. "I am so ready to sacrifice my life for my country and for my people," one young woman named Tiana told a CNN correspondent this week during a pro-government rally. "All the people, the whole army, all commanders that we have, they're ready to sacrifice their lives too , and ready to fight with their whole heart and soul," she added. Another, identified as Fatima - who actually grew up in London and Dubai - stated that "We know this war isn’t over. We know Trump is not really going to negotiate." She added of the US leader, "He’s just going to be, like, 'You do what I tell you or I’m going to kill you . ' And then he’s going to attack us even if we do as he says." An elderly man further chimed in, "Trump knows we don’t have a bomb, but he is attacking us anyway , " he said to the CNN crew. While not often covered by Western mainstream press, there have been pro-government demonstrations stretching all the way back to January, even when massive anti-government and largely economically-driven protests and clashes with police were at their peak: The rallies, or "night-gatherings" have been taking place across the country every evening for nearly three months , essentially since the start of the war.
