Amazon
is pointing to an unusually busy news cycle as one of the drivers behind its weak revenue forecast.
On a call with reporters following the company’s second-quarter earnings report on Thursday, Amazon finance chief Brian Olsavsky said one reason the company expects a slippage in online shopping this quarter is because consumers are distracted. There’s the Paris Olympics, which began last month and continues through Aug. 11, as well as the ramp-up to the U.S. presidential election in November.
Olsavsky also pointed to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally last month, which occurred just before the Republican National Convention

AWS is the business.
Amazon's rush to be middle man in their goods business is going to unwind customer confidence in using Amazon to buy everything. You keep selling junk to your customers whether you mean to or not, eventually will hurt the bottom line.
