Amazon.com's (AMZN) two-day Prime Day event generated US online sales of $12.7 billion, representing an increase of 6.1% year over year, media outlets reported Thursday, citing Adobe data.
More customers used "buy now, pay later" services, an indication of what can be expected in the coming months, the reports said, citing an Adobe analyst.

Amazon has been pushing their Visa card, but they also use $AFRM, I wonder if/how this will affect Affirm's quarterly numbers.

For those of you who invest in AT&T:

AT&T shares sank as a research analyst downgraded the stock following a Wall Street Journal investigation that revealed that U.S. phone companies have left behind a network of cables covered in toxic lead.

AT&T shares are down more than 6% this week, trading at levels not seen in 20 years, as Wall Street analysts raised questions about liabilities related to the cables. One analyst estimated it could cost $59 billion for the telecom industry to remove all the lead cables nationwide.

"Potential copper lead sheathing liability is unquantifiable at this time, but will be a substantial long-term overhang on AT&T and the industry," wrote JPMorgan analyst Philip Cusick in a note to investors that downgraded his recommendation on AT&T to "neutral" from "overweight."

The Journal investigation showed how phone companies have left behind more than 2,000 old lead-encased phone cables, hung up on poles, under waterways and in the soil around the U.S. Journal testing found numerous cables leaching lead into soil and water, at levels exceeding regulatory safety guidelines.

I've been hearing that people are considering going in heavy on AI ETFs for a nice flip in 3 to 5 years. Anyone else on this train?

I hear you. I'ma dedicated DCA'r by necessity for the most part, unless some windfalls come via tax return or bonuses at work. Everyone definitely has their own strategies that work for them so it's interesting to hear.

Rebalancing is probably my bugaboo. I can understand rebalancing into bonds or a safe haven if you're in the wealth preservation stage (or retirement). But I can't understand why you would automatically sell a winner and not let it run, as long as the story hasn't changed and there is still appreciation to be had... JUST in the name of maintaining a pre-set allocation percentage. Again, guess it depends on the specific situation though.

Not me, I'm good with my exposure via individual companies (NVDA, GOOGL) like Efkie mentioned. But they quickly mention a few of those ETFs in that vid DC Dude posted a few days ago:

I think one was $CHAT https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/CHAT/holdings

In a landmark decision, the directors of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), including its co-founder Elon Musk, have agreed to return more than $735 million in stock awards to settle a lawsuit accusing them of improperly awarding themselves hefty compensation packages.
This move is seen as a significant step towards addressing investor concerns over corporate governance practices at Tesla.
