- Wednesday, January 18, 2012, 10:58 AM Amazon's (AMZN +2.4%) Kindle Fire might be more profitable than expected, RBC Capital believes, seeing 3M-4M sales accretive to operating margins within the first six months of ownership. RBC's analysis assigns a cumulative lifetime operating income of $136/unit at a 20%-plus operating margin, which "could ease some investor concerns around operating margin compression." Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, January 9, 2012, 10:13 AM Akamai (AKAM -1.8%) shares sink after Citigroup lowers its rating to Sell from Neutral, citing valuation after an "overly aggressive" stock price reaction to last month's purchase of Cotendo and greater competition from Amazon's (AMZN) CloudFront CDN business. On the Cotendo deal, it is “not clear that Cotendo will provide Akamai material new products of market opportunities." Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, January 9, 2012, 9:45 AM Netflix (NFLX +2.9%) continues its recent rally after announcing the launch of its streaming service for the U.K. and Ireland. The company is offering the service for £5.99/month in the U.K and €6.99/month in Ireland, and has established a long list of content partners. However, concerns exist about Netflix's licensing costs, as well as competition from Amazon's (AMZN) Lovefilm subsidiary. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, December 29, 2011, 9:18 AM Amazon (AMZN) proclaims 2011 "the best holiday ever for the Kindle family," with sales of more than 1M of the devices/week throughout December, led by the new "Fire." The company also notes the success of its Direct Publishing program, with the #1 and #4 best-sellers on Kindle both published independently by their authors. Shares -2.7% premarket as Heather Bellini warns on the company's Q4 revenue. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]

Premarket gainers: ARMH +1%. YHOO +1%. SNE +1%. BHP +1%.
Losers: MOS -3%. ING -3%. AMZN -2%. Comment! [On the Move] - Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 6:11 PM Research In Motion (RIMM) +7.2% AH after Reuters reports the company turned down takeover overtures from Amazon (AMZN) and other potential buyers because it prefers to fix its problems on its own. Amazon reportedly hired an investment bank this summer to review a potential merger with RIM, but it didn't make a formal offer. 6 Comments [Tech, M&A, On the Move]
- Monday, December 12, 2011, 3:18 PM Consumers critical of Amazon's (AMZN -2.1%) Kindle Fire - complaining, for example, that there is no external volume control and the off switch is easy to hit by accident - compel NYT's David Streitfeld to compare the tablet to the Edsel. Hyperbole, perhaps - was the Edsel no. 2 in sales of U.S. autos at its launch? - but Amazon says it will release a software update within two weeks. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, December 12, 2011, 10:43 AM Netflix (NFLX +7.3%) is soaring on market chatter of Amazon (AMZN) and/or Verizon (VZ) making a play for the company. "I doubt it," tweets one of Seeking Alpha's Netflix watchers, Rocco Pendola. 7 Comments [Tech, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Thursday, December 1, 2011, 12:40 PM That little spike down from $198 to $195 in Amazon (AMZN) a few minutes ago? Benzinga - citing the WSJ - says Google (GOOG) is working on a same-day delivery system for online purchases, and is speaking to retailers about the design. AMZN shares are now at $196.15, +2%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, December 1, 2011, 11:29 AM As Barnes & Noble (BKS -19.2%) crashes on account of weak FQ2 results and FY12 guidance, Best Buy provides another piece of discouraging data for the company: the Nook Tablet is only the 8th-best-selling tablet on Best Buy's site, 7 spots below the top-ranked Kindle Fire (AMZN). The iPad (AAPL) is likely the most popular tablet overall, given that over a dozen models are listed. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, December 1, 2011, 10:27 AM Shares of Barnes & Noble (BKS -12.5%) get hammered in early trading after the firm misses consensus EPS estimates badly and says it expects full-year earnings to fall in the lower end of its previously issued guidance. The company says it will increase its spend on marketing and advertising for its Nook business - cutting into margins already razor-thin with rival Amazon (AMZN +2.2%) willing to sell e-readers at a loss (I, II). Comment! [On the Move, Tech]
- Wednesday, November 30, 2011, 9:25 AM Nvidia (NVDA) gains 4% after Canaccord's checks lead it to believe one of the company's Tegra app processors has been designed into the next-gen version of Amazon's (AMZN) Kindle Fire. Investors were hopeful a Tegra chip would be used in the current Fire, but Amazon wound up using a Texas Instruments (TXN) OMAP 4 processor. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, November 28, 2011, 10:05 AM Investors in retailers choose to accentuate the positive and eliminate any potential negative, as retail stocks (XRT +3.9%) post major moves in the early going. Among the notable gainers: AEO +5.2%, ANF +4.6%, BBY +4.2%, TIF +5.6%, AMZN +5.3%, JCP +3.5%, KSS +2.4%, TGT +2.3%, WMT +1.4%. Comment! [Consumer, U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Monday, November 28, 2011, 6:43 AM Amazon (AMZN) reports Kindle sales increased 4X over last year's Black Friday haul as consumers loaded up on its line of e-readers that it's selling at a loss in order to gain content customers. ComScore confirms Amazon's big day, saying Amazon.com tallied 50% more visitors than any other retailer's website. Shares +3.9% premarket. 4 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Friday, November 25, 2011, 12:20 PM Internet stocks are selling off, with Netflix (NFLX -6.6%), LinkedIn (LNKD -3.8%), and Groupon (GRPN -4.3%) all adding to their recent bloodletting. Amazon (AMZN -3.8%) and eBay (EBAY -1.3%) are also moving lower, in spite of positive Thanksgiving e-commerce data. 2 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Friday, November 18, 2011, 2:21 PM As Amazon (AMZN -2.9%) shares near three-month lows, one factor could involve some negative initial feedback from this week's Kindle Fire launch. Tech Crunch reports some users are suffering WiFi reception problems, with others saying the device shuts off its wireless when the display is turned off. No official word yet from Amazon, and it’s not clear how many devices are actually affected. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
