Deal: Your Samsung Galaxy Ring purchase comes with a free $100 gift card!
Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority If you've been looking to get a Samsung Galaxy Ring, today is your lucky day. While released nearly a year ago, this accessory is very rarely on sale. There's no discount on it right now, but you can get a free $100 gift card with your purchase. Get the Samsung Galaxy Ring with a $100 gift card for $399.99 ($100 off) This offer is available from Amazon, so the free gift card is for use exclusively with the popular online retailer. The sale applies to all color versions available: Black, Gold, and Silver. Samsung Galaxy Ring with $100 gift card Samsung Galaxy Ring with $100 gift card Fancy Titanium ring, with fancy sensors The Samsung Galaxy Ring is a leap into a new device segment for Samsung. Available in nine sizes 5 through 13, this jewelry-inspired wearable is packed with sensors to track your health and fitness, and some basic controls for your smartphone. Designed for 24/7 wear. See price at Amazon Save $100.00 Limited Time Deal! While we can argue the Samsung Galaxy Ring is the best wearable ring, it is also quite pricey at a cent under $400. I don't feel comfortable dropping four Benjamins on a wearable, but this free $100 gift card makes the offer more enticing. I use Amazon all the time, anyway (even for groceries), so to me it is definitely a nice incentive. Something I really like about the Samsung Galaxy Ring is that it is made to go unnoticed, really. It doesn't look like a high-tech product, featuring a sleek design with a minimalist touch. It's far more than a simple band, though. This is made of titanium, making it both light and resistant. It's only 7mm wide, and 2.6mm thick. Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Of course, there is much more to the Samsung Galaxy Ring than its awesome design. It has features to throw around! This accessory can measure your heart rate, blood oxygen levels, skin temperature, sleep, and even track your activity. Get this: it can even help women predict their menstrual cycles. As if all the health features weren't enough, the Samsung Galaxy Ring even gets some smart home functionality. It integrates with Samsung SmartThings, so you can use it to control your smart home devices. For example, you can program it to turn the lights off when it detects you are asleep. Pretty nice, right?! You can use it with any Android device, but some features do require a Samsung device. This is why we mostly recommend it to those well invested in the Samsung ecosystem. If you're part of the Sammy crew, though, you'll be glad to know it requires no subscription, while many of the competitors do. Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority The battery life is pretty nice at about four days per charge, and you can charge it on the go using the case. Make sure to act quickly if you've been considering getting a Samsung Galaxy Ring. Again, this wearable rarely goes on sale, and we're not sure how long this offer will last. It has been a week since we first reported it already! Oh, and make sure to get the right size for your finger. Samsung has a guide to help you figure out what size will work best for you and your Samsung Galaxy Ring.

Amazon Goes Before EU Court in Attempt to Shed Very Large Online Provider Designation
Amazon wants the EU to stop the VLOP. That is to say, the e-commerce giant went before a European court to ask that its status as a very large online provider (VLOP) under the Digital Services Act (DSA) be rescinded. More from Sourcing Journal Rebag Expands Access to Pre-loved Luxury Goods With New Amazon Collaboration Amazon Reportedly Tests Humanoid Robots for Parcel Delivery Are Amazon's Warehouses Facing an 'Injury Crisis'? The DSA went into general effect in 2024, and it's aimed at creating better transparency, tamping illegal digital activity and creating a safer internet for citizens of the European Union. Under the law, platforms and service engines can be designated as VLOPs, subjecting them to more stringent provisions of the DSA. For that reason, DSA regulations began in 2023 for companies designated that way. EU regulators designated Amazon as a VLOP in April 2023; the DSA states that platforms that accrue at least 45 million monthly users are eligible to be designated as such. Other VLOPs include Google, Meta, Shein, Temu and Zalando. These companies, among more than a dozen others, are required to 'have user-friendly terms and conditions,' 'be transparent as regards advertising, recommender systems or content moderation decisions' and more. They also must look deeper into their business models to identify risks surrounding illegal content, minors' protection and the mental and physical wellbeing of consumers. Not long after its designation, Amazon made it clear that it would appeal its status as a VLOP, primarily with the argument that retail platforms should be exempt from such a categorization because they don't pose the same risk as, for instance, social media platforms. Zalando has made a similar argument. According to Reuters, Amazon's lawyer Robert Spano appeared in Luxembourg-based General Court to continue arguing with that same principle on Thursday. 'Online marketplaces like the Amazon Store do not pose systemic risks. Second, the VLOP rules do not and cannot rationally assist in preventing the dissemination of illegal or counterfeit goods,' Spano reportedly said. 'The VLOP rules therefore make no sense when applied to online marketplaces.' An Amazon spokesperson told Sourcing Journal via email that it believes the VLOP designation is meant for companies 'with advertising as their primary revenue and that distribute speech and information.' With that framework, the spokesperson said, Amazon 'doesn't fit the description of…a VLOP under the DSA and should not have been designated as such.' 'The Amazon Store, as an online marketplace, does not pose any such systemic risks; it only sells goods, and it doesn't disseminate or amplify information, views or opinions,' the spokesperson said via email. According to Reuters, Spano argued in Luxembourg that risk is not pervasive but rather isolated to individual customers and noted that the company already complies with existing product safety regulations. He went on to say that regulators should not cast further scrutiny on companies like Amazon solely because of the number of users or consumers they have managed to amass. Zalando has made a similar argument, noting that each company calculates the number of users it has differently. 'When it comes to marketplaces like the Amazon Store, size does not multiply risk. It is an arbitrary, disproportionate and discriminatory metric,' Spano said, according to Reuters. The Amazon spokesperson said it believes its designation as a VLOP doesn't provide any tangible upside for its consumers. 'The VLOP designation also forces Amazon to meet onerous administrative obligations that don't provide any benefit for EU consumers,' they said in the email. The court that heard Amazon's arguments is expected to rule about the company's VLOP status in the coming months.

Analysts reboot Oracle stock price targets after earnings
Larry Ellison was having a good day. The chairman, co-founder and chief technology officer of Oracle (ORCL) spoke during the software company's fourth-quarter earnings call. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter "Oracle's future is bright in this new era of cloud computing," Ellison told analysts. "Oracle will be the number one cloud database company. Oracle will be the number one cloud applications company. And Oracle will be the number one builder and operator of cloud infrastructure data centers." Oracle beat Wall Street's earnings expectations and boosted its revenue guidance, with Chief Executive Safra Katz declaring that the tech giant "is well on its way to being not only the world's largest cloud application company, but also one of the world's largest cloud infrastructure companies." "We will build and operate more cloud infrastructure data centers than all of our cloud infrastructure competitors combined," Ellison said. "Most of the world's most valuable data is stored in an Oracle database," he added. "All of those databases are moving to the cloud. Oracle's cloud, Microsoft's (MSFT) Azure cloud, Amazon's cloud or Google's (GOOGL) cloud."The results were also good news for Ellison's bank account. His net worth shot up by $26 billion to $243 billion by midday on June 12, enjoying easily the largest daily bump of any billionaire, according to Forbes data. Ellison vaulted past Amazon (AMZN) Chairman Jeff Bezos, whose net worth is $227 billion and Meta Platforms (META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg, weighing in at $239 billion, for the second spot on Forbes' real-time billionaires ranking. More Tech Stocks: Palantir gets great news from the PentagonAnalyst has blunt words on Trump's iPhone tariff plansOpenAI teams up with legendary Apple exec The only one ahead of Ellison was Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk, whose net worth totals $411 billion. Oracle's earnings jumped 9% from a year eearlier, while revenue for the quarter grew 11%, driven by cloud services. Catz said Oracle expected its total cloud growth rate - applications plus infrastructure - to increase to more than 40% in fiscal 2026 from 24% in fiscal 2025. Its cloud infrastructure growth rate is expected to reach 50% in fiscal 2025 and more than 70% in fiscal 2026. And remaining performance obligations, which measures backlogged work, is likely to more than double in fiscal 2026. Oracle stock surged on the earnings beat, with shares leaping 13% at last check to just under $200. The stock is up about 5% in 2025 and 42.5% from a year ago. "The earnings were strong," said TheStreet Pro's Stephen Guilfoyle. "The sales growth was strong. The guidance was outstanding." Guilfoyle, whose career dates back to the floor of the New York Stock Exchange in the 1980s, said in his recent column that the only thing he didn't like was the quality of the company's balance sheet. Total assets amount to $168.361 billion, he said, of which 39.7% are in goodwill and other intangibles. "That's a little bit elevated for my comfort," he said. "Total liabilities less equity comes to $147.392 billion including a rather daunting looking $85.297 billion in long-term debt. Obviously, this is not one of the better looking 'big tech' balance sheets that we have analyzed." "That's going to take time to get squared away, especially if the firm feels pressured to maintain elevated levels of capital expenditures," Guilfoyle added, putting his price target at "a rough $204." Related: Tesla analyst makes surprise move on stock ahead of Robotaxi debut Piper Sandler saw a blast from the past in the results, according to The Fly. The investment firm, which raised its price target on Oracle to $190 from $130 and affirmed a neutral rating on the shares, said the San Francisco company "has entered an entirely new wave of enterprise popularity that it has not seen since the internet era in the late '90s." Piper said it was raising its estimates given increasing visibility into Oracle's growth potential. Increasing capital intensity risks that could widen the net-debt position and pressure margins in the short run keep the firm on the sidelines, assuming these risks elevate volatility and hinder expansion of the stock multiple, the report says. Bank of America raised its price target on Oracle stock to $220 from $156 and also maintained a neutral rating on the shares. Fourth-quarter cloud subscription growth of 27% was driven by software as a service growing 14% year-over-year in constant currency, said B o fA, which says it is encouraged by accelerating growth that is now in line with other application peers at the mid-teens. The company's "impressive" guidance for remaining performance obligations backs sustained momentum, but meaningful investment drives the outlook for capital spending higher, the analyst says. The pipeline for Oracle cloud infrastructure and artificial-intelligence deals is clearly trending well, B of A said. What is unclear is the trajectory of profitability, with ramping capital spending likely to weigh on gross margin, the firm added.
