ic. but from Amazon's perspective, if customers want something that is mostly turn-key with the ability to customize, wouldn't they just combine AWS services themselves? I would believe Amazon has DB only solutions,…
sounds interesting. can you elaborate? Not familiar with what Snowflake does or how it compares. Thanks
I agree that the results are important, but in the amazon vs third party vendor the difference between the two parties are large. One is much better capitalized than the other and enjoy many cost advantages. On product…
Walmart eCommerce is relatively small, so not really comparable in terms of anti-trust concerns.
Theoretically Amazon has infinite shelf space, but in reality, no one really scrolls past the first few pages. So in reality, if your product is on page 5, it is perhaps as good as not being on Amazon anyway for that…
So suppose Amazon shared sales/behavior data with other sellers/companies, such that everyone is competing on a even footing with regards to product research. Do you still think what Amazon is doing is anti-competative?…

So if a store decides to sell things on consignment they no longer have power over how the products are displayed?
With commoditized products the brand/manufacturer has no pricing power, so in order to go down the cost curve the firm would need to deploy more capital. This means making things in bigger batches, more efficient…

How about insurance though? If it’s included it could easily be the best deal around. For young drivers like me my premiums are through the roof.
I think that highly depends on if the half a mil figure is the average of all top 1% or the income at 99th percentile. With extreme income inequality the income for 99th percentile could get lower
To what extremes does the housing bubble need to go for the government to realize that the historic QE rounds have done much to inflate both financial asset and real asset values? Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's…
Thank you. Can you recommend some books on the subject? Or related subjects ?
