This 1 Thing Is Really Bugging Me About Amazon Web Services
Any investor keeping tabs on e-commerce giant Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) probably already knows how important its cloud computing arm is to the company's bottom line. For those who don't, the bulk of its revenue still comes from selling merchandise to online shoppers, 58% of last year's operating profits came from Amazon Web Services, even though this business only made up 17% of Amazon's total sales. That allows Amazon's sizable cloud-based cash flow to help fund a lot of different growth initiatives. And it is! This proverbial gravy train might not be quite as impressive in the foreseeable future as it's been in the recent past, though. While Amazon Web Services still seems to enjoy a decent degree of pricing power, if AWS' market share trend is any indication, that could be changing soon. This sets the stage for narrower profit margins, and ultimately less net profits. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » AWS is losing market share Technology market research outfit Synergy Research Group keeps track of the numbers, reporting how much the world spends on cloud computing services each and every quarter. As has been the case for some time now, Amazon Web Services remained the single-biggest name in the business through Q1 of this year, maintaining its lead on Microsoft 's and Alphabet 's Google cloud businesses. That lead is narrowing, though. Indeed, as the chart of Synergy's recent historical data illustrates, Amazon Web Services' share of the world's cloud computing sales fell to a multi-year low (maybe a record low?) 29% during the first quarter of 2025. That lull not only extends a downtrend that's been underway since early 2023, but accelerates it. That's not to suggest Google and Microsoft are solely responsible for this market-share setback. While both clearly gained share through 2022 and into 2023, both of these big names have also struggled to win cloud business of late. Much of Amazon's recent loss of market share is to mostly unknown "other" providers. This makes sense -- as the industry matures, cloud computing clients are looking for the more specialized options and features that only the smaller cloud computing companies may offer. Regardless, Amazon Web Services is clearly losing market share. And it certainly doesn't want to. Still profitable enough ... for now It hasn't mattered much yet. Indeed, AWS' revenue is still technically growing faster than the arm's operating costs are, allowing for still-widening profit margins through the first quarter of 2025. Think bigger picture, though, and longer term. The cloud computing business is clearly competitive, and even its smaller players are now in a position to push back against the so-called "Big Three." While there's been enough industrywide growth for all these service providers to go around, we may be at a turning point on this front. If its growth rate slows -- as is usually the case once a business matures -- look for cloud's commoditization to kick off a price war. Price wars, of course, punch profit margins. Just keep your finger on the pulse of this business Don't panic if you currently hold a stake in Amazon; this isn't exactly a reason in and of itself to avoid a position in Amazon, either. There's still good money to be made in the business, and Amazon is well-positioned to earn its fair share of it. Don't be naïve, either, however. Amazon stock has been and remains priced as if AWS will remain the powerhouse profit producer it's been up until this point. Now this once-reliable presumption is in question. Even the smallest red flag on this front could take an oversized toll on Amazon stock, sparked by unexpected disappointment. In other words, just keep your finger on the pulse of this business to make sure you're not completely blindsided by one of its upcoming quarterly reports. One of the two charts above is going to have to change directions sooner or later, and likely sooner than later. Should you invest $1,000 in Amazon right now? Before you buy stock in Amazon, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Amazon wasn't one of them.

West Red Lake Gold Delineates High-Grade Lenses of Gold Adjacent to Current Development
Vancouver, BC, May 28, 2025 – TheNewswire - Global Stocks News - Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of West Red Lake Gold. On May 27, 2025, West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSXV: WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF) reported drill results from the South Austin Zone. Click Image To View Full Size 'There's a history with mines in Red Lake finding these fantastic pods of mineralization on the edges of deposits,' Shane Williams, WRLG President & CEO, told Guy Bennett, the CEO of Global Stocks News (GSN). 'The South Austin mineralization announced on May 27 is directly beside existing workings,' continued Williams. 'It's not long-term, back-room inventory. Our engineers are working to pull it into the mine plan within 6 to 12 months.' Click Image To View Full Size *The 'From-To' intervals in Table 1 are denoting overall downhole length of the intercept. True thickness has not been calculated for these intercepts but is expected to be ≥ 70% of downhole thickness based on intercept angles observed in the drill core. Internal dilution for composite intervals does not exceed 1m for samples grading <0.1 g/t Au. 'The South Austin zone has been producing very high grades and impressive widths in the definition drilling program to begin 2025 – often associated with the presence of visible gold,' stated Williams in the May 27, 2025 press release. 'It is becoming apparent that a lot of high-grade material was left behind in this area by historic operators and we are taking full advantage of this low hanging fruit that sits immediately adjacent to our existing underground development,' continued Williams. 'As drilling progresses at depth, we expect to uncover more areas of untapped potential and look forward to providing further updates as assay results continue to be received.' The May 27, 2025 drill results are located approximately50 meters up-dip from the South Austin intercepts previously announced on February 26, 2025, where drilling returned 114.26 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 10.6m,77.90 g/t Au over 3m and 24.48 g/t Au over 8.5m. This area is also approximately 300 m up plunge from the drill results recently announced on May 13, 2025, where drilling returned 48.97 g/t Au over 18.7m, 52.86 g/t Au over 4.5m and 25.49 g/t Au over 7.5m. Click Image To View Full Size The South Austin zone continues to demonstrate significant grade and thickness potential at depth and along strike, which is being fully realized and accurately defined through definition drilling. The purpose of this drilling was definition and expansion within priority areas of South Austin to continue adding to an already substantial inventory of high-confidence ounces to support the restart of production at the Madsen mine, which was announced on May 22, 2025. The Company reported positive results from its recently completed bulk sampling campaign on May 7, 2025, and also filed a Technical Report for its Pre-Feasibility Study for Madsen on February 18, 2025. The South Austin zone currently contains an Indicated mineral resource of 474,600 ounces grading 8.7 grams/tonne gold within 1.7 million tonnes ('Mt'). with an additional Inferred resource of 31,800 ounces of gold grading 8.7 grams/tonne gold within 0.1 Mt.[2] Click Image To View Full Size 'The Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) used a gold price of US$1,680 per ounce,' Williams told GSN. 'With gold trading around US$3,330, the gold price cited in the PFS is currently in the rear-view mirror. This has the potential to improve the economics of the Madsen Mine.' 'Madsen is developing into an operation of larger scale than was envisioned just last year,' added Williams. 'It's an exciting time to be part of this new operation as we push to see how much value we can unlock in this positive gold price environment.' The Madsen deposits presently host an NI 43-101 Indicated resource of 1.65 million ounces of gold grading 7.4 g/t gold within 6.9 Mt and an Inferred resource of 0.37 Moz of gold grading 6.3 g/t gold within 1.8 Mt.
