Amazon Deals of the Day: Apple's Newest iPad Pro is Back to a Record Low Price

CNET19-05-2025
Amazon sells a gazillion products, with new ones arriving daily. The retail giant carries everything from home essentials to tech gear to wellness items. And almost as much as it loves adding new products, Amazon loves cutting prices. Deciding which deals are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job -- our job, specifically. That's why we scope out the top deals.
Today, we spotted the latest and greatest Apple A17 Pro iPad mini back down to it's record low price. We also found the Philis Hue indoor smart light strip dropped down to a new record low saving you almost 40% off. And finally our favorite pellet grill of the year is $100 off, the lowest price we've seen it all year.
This iPad Mini may be tiny but it sure is mighty. It's actually our favorite travel iPad. A lot of this is because of its speedy A17 Pro chip. This chip also features Apple Intelligence. It has 128GB of storage and a beautiful Liquid Retina display. It also has fast Wi-Fi 6E connectivity along with a 12-megapixel ultrawide front camera. The camera even has features like Center Stage for your video calls and a 12MP wide back camera. The iPad comes in four colors so you can chose which one you like the best. It also makes for a great tablet for you kids. In Scott Stein review of this new iPad mini he claims "In the meantime, anyone hoping for a not-too-expensive iPad for kids might consider the Mini for its relative updates and slightly lower cost than the Airs… but it's still not super-affordable enough to replace the basic iPad." But now the iPad just got a $100 price cut on Amazon, bringing the price down to $399, a record low.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
If you're looking to add some spice into a part of your home, a great way to do so is by adding some smart lighting. Philips' Hue has smart bulbs and lighting line that are some of our favorites smart lights on the market, especially this indoor LED light strip. With this lighting, you can set the color and timing of your lights however you like to help curate the right ambiance for any occasion. This light strip is 16 feet long, giving you plenty of coverage in the room of your choice. It's also compatible with Alexa, Google and Apple so you can enjoy a hands free experience and integrate the lights into your other smart home devices. Normally retailing for $90, you can grab it today for just $55, almost a 40% savings and a new low price.
Memorial Day is just around the corner, which marks the unofficial start to summer. Many of us, including myself, are planning on having barbecues and outdoor gatherings during the holiday weekend. If you're planning to do so, you'll want to make sure you're grill is still in good condition from last summer. If not, we love pellet grills. Specifically the Traeger Ironwood XL pellet grill.
A pellet grill is a great option if you're looking to upgrade your grilling setup as it lets you bring in the rich flavor of the charcoal while still being operated by the convenience of gas. We specifically love the Traeger Ironwood XL pellet grill as it has a mobile app for wireless adjustments, it produces even smoke by the lid seal and it has a light on the lid and pellet hopper. The grill burns through the pellets pretty slowly so you can get a lot of use out of it. Normally running for $1,900 you can grab one for $1,800 right now, saving you $100 and dropping it down to the lowest price of the year.
With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET combs through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer and gathers the best deals for you.

Why famed short-seller Andrew Left says he's betting against Palantir: 'It's become so absurd'

Short-seller Andrew Left says he's betting against Palantir. The AI-powered data company has seen its stock soar this year. Left says he likes the company, but its stock valuation is unjustifiable. Palantir stock seems unstoppable this year, but its astronomical rally has drawn the eye of at least one renowned short-seller. Andrew Left, founder of Citron Research, told Fox Business this week that he's betting against the AI-powered data software company amid its colossal 144% stock surge in 2025. The stock has rallied most recently after reporting strong second-quarter earnings on August 4. Left made it clear that despite Palantir's status as an AI and retail darling, he sees its valuation as extreme. "If this was the greatest company that was ever created and we gave it the same multiples as, let's say Nvidia in 2023, the stock still can get cut by two thirds. And that would be like 35 times sales." Palantir's price-to-sales ratio this month is hovering around 80x, while its forward price-to-earnings ratio was 290x on Thursday. "I've stopped even looking at the ratio because it's become so absurd," Left said. "There's never been a company that has that type of multiple or that type of PE that's not corrected 50%." The short-seller highlighted Palantir's significant following among retail traders, which he suggested is a negative for the stock. Left drew the ire of retail investors when his firm bet against the original meme stock, Gamestop. His other high-profile short bets include Hertz, EV startup Nikola, and Valeant. Once known for his high short-selling activity and social media presence, Left has toned it down recently. In July 2024, the US Securities and Exchange Commission charged him with market manipulation and securities fraud. In May, a federal judge rejected Left's bid to dismiss the case. Left's firm continues to share its reports and perspectives on X. On August 13, it called out an X post by CNBC commentator Jim Cramer when he issued a bullish take on Palantir stock. "Palantir at these levels isn't an "easy money" story; it's a high-multiple, hype-driven narrative," Citron wrote.

Activist Starboard buys more Salesforce stock after first demanding change in 2022

By Svea Herbst-Bayliss NEW YORK (Reuters) -Activist Starboard Value, one of the first investors to publicly push Salesforce to make changes three years ago, increased its stake in the U.S. software company by almost 50% in the second quarter, according to a regulatory filing on Thursday. The hedge fund reported owning 1.3 million shares in Salesforce on June 30, compared with 849,679 shares at the end of the first quarter when it boosted its stake by almost 52%. The move comes as the company's stock price has lost nearly 30% since January and is off nearly 9% over the last 12 months. Salesforce, which has a market value of $223 billion, came under intense pressure from a handful of activist investors in late 2022 and early 2023. But many who publicly pushed for changes cut their stakes or exited completely by the middle of 2023 after the company reported better results, added a new director to the board and made other changes. Now the pressure may be increasing again with Starboard, which is known to revisit earlier investments if the company is seen as backsliding on promises, loading up on the stock. While Salesforce's stock price gained nearly 100% in 2023, Starboard's chief executive, Jeffrey Smith, said late last year that the company still had room to become more efficient and profitable. A Starboard spokesperson could not be reached for comment on Thursday. The firm also increased its holding in drugmaker Pfizer by 10.5% to 8.5 million shares, less than a year after unveiling a $1 billion stake in the company and pushing it to improve performance. At Autodesk, where the hedge fund settled its fight with the software design company in April, Starboard cut its stake by nearly 27%, the filing shows. While Thursday's filing is backward-looking, the so-called 13F filings, which detail what U.S. stocks a fund manager owned at the end of the previous quarter, are closely watched for possible investment trends.
