'A Delightful Shopping Experience' Andy Jassy's Alexa Plans Sink Amazon Stock (NASDAQ:AMZN)
Chalk up another example of life imitating Dilbert. About 10 years ago, the CEO came to Dilbert with what he thought was an exciting plan: put ads on the 'little spot' that remains in your vision for a few seconds after someone takes a picture with a flash. Fast forward to today, where online shopping giant Amazon's (AMZN) CEO Andy Jassy wants to slip ads into Alexa. This horrified investors, and Amazon shares plunged over 8% in Friday afternoon's trading. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Jassy noted, not unfairly, that Alexa was commonly used as a shopping tool, telling it to add things to their shopping list or placing orders through it. Thus, Jassy noted, there was room for improvement here, and started breaking down the concept. Jassy noted that Alexa+ is already free for Prime subscribers, who pay $14.99 per month, and recently added a $20 monthly subscription fee for those who are not Prime members. Jassy then advanced the idea that there could be subscription tiers later…including an ad-supported tier. Admittedly, Alexa is not ad-free as it is. There are some ads inserted between songs via the smart speaker, or a visual ad that shows up on the display device. But Jassy wants to go farther, allowing for what reports call '…an AI-generated ad that Alexa+ delivers.' There is a certain logic to it; for those who have expressed an interest in a certain product, the opportunity to pay to have your product recommended makes sense. But the results might be inherently tainted, as customers would know the recommendation is bought and paid for. Bond To Come Amazon is also stretching its legs as a filmmaker thanks to its MGM connection. Jassy also pointed out that James Bond is now in Denis Villeneuve's hands, and that the legendary filmmaker should be able to do the project justice. Jassy noted, 'We cannot wait to get started on 007's next adventure.' Villeneuve was tasked with the project back in June, and a recent report revealed who has the screenplay duty: none other than Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. This was not the only advance Amazon had to offer in video recently, as it also showed off the Prime Video NBA broadcast team, featuring major names like Dwyane Wade, Kevin Harlan, and several more. Is Amazon a Good Long-Term Investment? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Strong Buy consensus rating on AMZN stock based on 42 Buys and one Hold assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 39.43% rally in its share price over the past year, the average AMZN price target of $262.10 per share implies 21.31% upside potential.

Got $1,000 to Invest in August? These High-Yielding Dividend Stocks Could Turn It Into Nearly $60 of Annual Passive Income.
Key Points EPR Properties pays a monthly dividend yielding over 6%. Vici Properties' payout yields more than 5%. The REITs expect to continue increasing their dividend payments. 10 stocks we like better than EPR Properties › Investing in high-yield dividend stocks is a great way to generate passive income. For example, investing $1,000 in the following companies could yield nearly $60 of annual dividend income: Dividend Stock Amount Invested Recent Yield Annual Dividend Income EPR Properties (NYSE: EPR) $500 6.42% $32.10 Vici Properties (NYSE: VICI) $500 5.29% $26.45 Total $1,000 5.85% $58.55 Data sources: Google Finance and author's calculations. Dividend yields are as of July 31. Here's a closer look at these high-quality, high-yielding dividend stocks. EPR Properties EPR Properties is a real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on experiential real estate. The company owns a diversified portfolio of movie theaters, eat-and-play venues, health and fitness properties, attractions, and other entertainment spaces. It leases these properties back to operating tenants, primarily under long-term, triple net leases (NNNs). Those leases provide it with very stable cash flow because tenants cover all property operating costs (including routine maintenance, real estate taxes, and building insurance). The REIT expects its stable portfolio to generate $5 to $5.16 per share of funds from operations (FFO) as adjusted this year. That easily covers its monthly dividend payment of $0.295 per share, or $3.54 annually. It also provides a cushion and surplus cash to invest in more experiential properties. EPR Properties invested $86.3 million into new properties in the first half of this year. Recent investments included acquiring land for $1.2 million and providing $5.9 million in mortgage financing secured by improvements at a health and wellness property in Georgia. It also acquired land for a new eat-and-play property development in Virginia for $1.6 million, which has an expected total cost of $19 million and an anticipated completion in 2026. The company plans to invest $200 million to $300 million in new properties this year. This includes $106 million for experiential development and redevelopment projects it plans to fund over the next 18 months. These investments should grow EPR's FFO and dividend. The REIT raised its payout by 3.5% earlier this year. Vici Properties Fellow REIT Vici Properties also invests in experiential real estate. However, its primary focus is on market-leading gaming, hospitality, wellness, entertainment, and leisure destinations. For example, it owns several iconic casinos along the Las Vegas Strip, including Caesars Palace Las Vegas, MGM Grand, and the Venetian Resort Las Vegas. The REIT also leases its properties under long-term NNN contracts with operating tenants. These leases currently have a weighted average remaining term of over 40 years. A growing subset of its leases -- 42% this year, rising to 90% by 2035 -- link rents to inflation. Its strategy of investing in large properties with long-term, inflation-linked leases provides it with stable and rising rental income. Vici Properties currently pays out $0.4325 per share each quarter in dividends, for a total of $1.73 annually. It produces plenty of cash to cover that payment level -- $2.35 to $2.37 per share of adjusted FFO is expected this year. The REIT uses the cash it retains to invest in additional experiential properties. The company has secured two notable new investments this year. It has agreed to provide a loan of up to $510 million to fund the development of the North Fork Mono Casino & Resort in California. Additionally, Vici has committed to investing $450 million into a mezzanine loan related to the development of One Beverly Hills, a landmark luxury mixed-use development in California. Vici's new investments help drive growth in both its FFO per share and its dividend. The REIT has raised its payment for seven straight years (each year since its formation). It has grown the payout at a 7.4% compound annual rate during that period, outpacing the 2.3% average of other REITs focused on properties secured by NNNs. Excellent ways to generate passive dividend income EPR Properties and Vici Properties own diversified and growing portfolios of experiential real estate. Those properties provide them with rising streams of rental income to pay dividends and invest in additional properties. That makes them great ways to turn $1,000 into a growing stream of passive dividend income this August. Should you invest $1,000 in EPR Properties right now?

Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. Reminds Investors in Bitfarms or Reddit of The Class Action Lawsuits Filed and Urges Investors to Inquire About Their Rights
Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. Litigation Attorney Brandon Walker Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In Bitfarms (BITF) or Reddit (RDDT) To Contact Him Directly To Discuss Their Options If you purchased or acquired securities in any of the above companies during their class period and would like to discuss your legal rights, call Bragar Eagel & Squire partner Brandon Walker or Marion Passmore directly at (212) 355-4648 NEW YORK, Aug. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder rights law firm, reminds investors that class actions have been commenced on behalf of stockholders of Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF) and Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:RDDT). Stockholders have until the deadlines below to petition the court to serve as lead plaintiff. Additional information about each case can be found at the link provided. Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF) Class Period: March 21, 2023 and December 9, 2024 Lead Plaintiff Deadline: July 8, 2025 The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Bitfarms maintained deficient internal controls over financial reporting; (ii) as a result, the Company incorrectly categorized proceeds derived from the sale of digital assets as a cash flow from operating activities rather than as a cash flow from investing activities; (iii) in addition, the Company overstated the extent to which it had remediated, and/or its ability to remediate, the material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting related to its classification of the 2021 Warrants; (iv) the foregoing errors caused Bitfarms to misstate various items in several of the Company's previously issued financial statements; (v) as a result, these financial statements were inaccurate and would likely need to be restated; and (vi) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times For more information on the Bitfarms class action go to: Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:RDDT) Class Period: October 29, 2024 and May 20, 2025 Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 18, 2025 The complaint alleges that the social media website Reddit receives a significant portion of its user traffic from Google Search, and Reddit's primary source of revenue is generated from advertising to users on its own platform. Throughout the relevant period, Google Search began implementing new Artificial Intelligence ('AI') capabilities such as AI Overview that could change the nature of search results. Defendants are alleged to have made false and misleading statements, and failed to disclose, that: (i) changes in Google Search's algorithm and features like AI Overview were causing users to stop their query on Google Search; (ii) these algorithm changes were materially different than prior instances of reduced traffic to the Reddit website; (iii) Defendants were aware that the increase in the query term 'Reddit' on search engines was because users were getting the sought after answer from Google Search without having to go to Reddit, and not because they intended to visit Reddit; (iv) this zero-click search reality was dramatically reducing traffic to Reddit in a manner the Company was unable to overcome in the short term; and (v) Defendants, therefore, lacked a reasonable basis for its outlook on user rates and advertising revenues. On May 1, 2025, after the market close, Reddit issued an earnings release announcing its first quarter 2024 financial results for the period ending March 31, 2025. The earnings release revealed that Reddit had experienced three consecutive quarters of deceleration in daily active user growth. On this news, the price of Reddit's common stock fell $4.96 per share, or 4.2%, from a closing price of $118.79 per share on May 1, 2025, to a closing price of $113.83 per share on May 2, 2025. Then, on May 19, 2025, Wells Fargo analysts downgraded Reddit's stock and lowered their price target to $115 per share from a previous $168 per share. Wells Fargo called Google Search's implementation of new AI features as likely 'permanent' disruptions on user traffic for Reddit. On this news, the price of Reddit's common stock fell $5.24 per share, or 4.6%, from a closing price of $113.23 per share on May 16, 2025, to a closing price of $107.99 per share on May 19, 2025. Finally, on May 21, 2025, Baird analysts substantially downgraded Reddit's stock, reducing the price target to $120 per share from the previous $140 per share. Citing similar concerns as the Wells Fargo analysts, Baird analysts additionally noted the new and disruptive developments in Google Search that had just been presented at the Google I/O developer conference. On this news, the price of Reddit's common stock fell $9.79 per share, or 9.3%, from a closing price of $105.64 per share on May 20, 2025, to a closing price of $95.85 per share on May 21, 2025.
