THE
- AMZN actions are recovered in the light of the denial of price rating.
- CNN claims that Donald Trump called Bezos to complain about the pricing policy.
- Amazon claims that the publication of prices separately from the costs of products has never been envisaged on the main website.
- Evercore ISI maintains that Amazon will favor the maintenance of the market share in light of the prices.
Amazon (Amzn) The shares recovered almost all its sale on Tuesday after the Trump administration grew angry with an article reporting that the online retailer planned to specify the price costs separately on its market. Amazon denied the story, which was reported for the first time by Punchbowl Newsat lunchtime.
A Trump spokesman said she had discussed the article with Trump and called her “hostile and political act”. Then CNN reported that Trump had personally called the founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos to complain about politics. Bezos has long retired after putting the reins to CEO Andy Jassy, but it seems that the telephone call worked.
In the afternoon, Amazon told journalists that the pricing costs of consumer enumeration were considered by the Amazon Amazon Haul subsidiary, which rivals China's TEMU directly, but never for the main website.
The news had sent AMZN shares to more than 2% outdoors on Tuesday, but the stock went back to nearly $ 187.54 at the end. Amazon gets a significant proportion of its goods from factories in China which is mainly subject to the tariff of 145% of the Trump administration.
For his part, Mark Mahaney, the head of Internet research at Evercore Isii, used the News merry -go -round to grasp on one point. Amazon will have to eat the prices and lose the operating margin or lose market share, according to Mahaney.
Mahaney has argued in his customer note that Amazon will favor the market share and therefore faces a tightening of the margins if the prices remain in place.
Amazon publishes a profit Thursday for the first quarter, and Wall Street expects a profit per adjusted share (BPA) of $ 1.36 on a turnover of $ 155.1 billion.
