☆ In leaked internal meeting, Amazon retail chief says sales of cheaper items are surging
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-07 | by ( Eugene Kim | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Amazon's sales of cheap items are surging, driven by faster delivery speeds, executive says. Over 50% of those everyday essentials are now delivered on the same or next day, he added. "And these are especially the low-priced everyday essentials, the things that most households purchase every week." The goal has been to not only speed up deliveries, but also make it less expensive for the company to offer faster delivery. 'Real positive'During last month's analyst call, Jassy added that the growth of cheaper items is a "real positive" because it is predicated on faster delivery speeds.

Over the past few years, he said, it's looked for factories in other countries, including Cambodia, Vietnam, Mexico and Brazil. Rosenfeld said about two-thirds of Steve Madden's business are U.S. imports. Of that, he said, "we currently source a little bit more than 70% of those goods from China." That means slightly less than half of its business would be at risk of tariffs on Chinese imports, he said. He said the company has moved more of its production outside of China since tariffs began under Trump's first administration.

☆ CNBC's Inside India newsletter: How will the next Trump administration impact India?
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-07 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

Global trade changed considerably over the past four years — benefiting India — as President Joe Biden retained much of Trump's tariffs on China. EnergyOn the one hand, analysts expect Indian interests to be aligned with those of the United States regarding oil prices . Trump's previous term in office, whether intentionally or coincidently, saw moderate to low oil prices. As India imports over 90% of its oil needs, New Delhi will likely welcome any move by the U.S. to keep oil prices low. A quick resolution of the war in Ukraine — Trump's campaign promise — would also prove to be negative for oil prices.

☆ The one solar stock to buy after Trump's win hit the sector, analysts say
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-07 | by ( Spencer Kimball | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

First Solar is the largest manufacturer of solar panels in the U.S. and is rated overweight at Wells Fargo. But the domestic manufacturing tax credits that benefit First Solar are likely to survive because they support jobs in GOP congressional districts, according to the bank. Tailwinds from tariffs, however, would be offset by headwinds from IRA repeal if the GOP goes after the manufacturing tax credits. In the universe of publicly-traded solar stocks, however, analysts view First Solar as best positioned to weather the storm. "In our view, higher tariffs on imported solar panels would diminish competition from Chinese manufacturers, pushing demand towards First Solar's U.S.-made products."

New York CNN —Wednesday morning, my inbox was flooded with notes from analysts eager to talk about the election’s upside for various sectors. The crypto folks came on especially strong, cheering the success of the candidate who promised them the moon. When the stock market opened in New York, the enthusiasm for these so-called Trump trades went into hyperdrive. Virtually all mainstream economists oppose tariffs on that scale and expect they would cause inflation to rise yet again. “My worst-case scenario is that he’s actually successful with his blanket tariff policies,” Alpert told me.

Republican presidential nominee and former U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy meet at Trump Tower in New York City, U.S., September 27, 2024. Posting on X, Zelenskyy praised Trump on his "impressive election victory" and said he was optimistic that he and the former U.S. president, who has threatened to cut Ukraine funding quickly if re-elected, could work together toward peace in Ukraine. That would make it easy for a Republican administration to block future military funding for Ukraine. The U.S. election, and the future of that funding and support, was seen as a make-or-break moment for Kyiv.
