Interesting video/article about this behemoth company: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/15/amaz...jQ1WIOgP9lDnS4

I am a Prime member, and have noticed that the majority of my shipments lately are delivered by Amazon vehicles/personnel.

 

Interesting. Thanks for the read.

Looks like it is too late to short UPS and FedEx stock. Or, maybe not.

 

Good old vertical integration.

 

 

We should get coverage down here sometime in the late 21st century.

 

I wonder if Amazon might grow too big to maintain control over its operations.

 

I'm guessing the _____________ will make sure that doesn't happen.

 

well they have a lot of money to work with but the more you branch out the easier it is to finally screw up.
I'm not sure that they are on the right track. right now they are using contractors and self-employed to do the business fo delivering.
But they are the face of those contractors, or vice versa. it is really easy when you exploit a large class of folks to have it blow up in your face.

 

You're probably right, but I've seen it happen before. We've all seen successful businesses grow to the point where they can't manage and/or control the business.

 

Someday Amazon will be the next Sears!
