E*TRADE Generation Trader: Preview of Amazon Earnings
In this episode of Generation Trader, sponsored by E*TRADE, Cheddar Anchors Hope King and Tim Stenovec take a look at Amazon's stock performance leading up to the company's fourth quarter earnings report.
54 percent of the Cheddar community voted that they turned to Amazon for holiday gifts this past holiday season, according to a Twitter Poll.
Research firm GHB Insights said Amazon captured between 45-50 percent of all online holiday sales, thanks in large part to its Prime subscribers. Shares of Amazon are up more than 30 percent in the past three months.
We may not be headed for a 2008-esque disaster, but increased geopolitical tension paired with the end of the tech boom means volatility could stick around.
The dreaded Netflix crackdown on profile sharing translated into a major boost in subscribers while the promised rate cuts seem to be a far off fantasy.
