Amazon Warns AI Capacity Limits, Stock Retreats
Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) slid after its earnings call because Andy Jassy was blunt: AI demand is real, but the company can't just snap its fingers and supply enough capacity. Electricity and chip shortages are the choke points, and he said it will take several quarters to work through it, even if things slowly improve each period. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. He pushed back on the idea Amazon is losing the AI race and leaned into the spend$31.4Billion of AI-heavy capex in Q2 is the kind of run rate the back half is built on, with more going into chips, data centers and power. Tariffs haven't bitten yet in H1, he said, but who ends up paying higher U.S. rates later is still unclear. That caution rubbed some investors the wrong way. Lucas Ma of Envision Research warned the heavy investment and mounting competition from GOOG (NASDAQ:GOOG) and META (NASDAQ:META) could squeeze free cash flow, making capital allocation riskier if the AI arms race keeps accelerating. Amazon is chasing a big AI opportunity while bumping up against real limits, so growth hinges on execution and capital discipline. The next signs to watch are whether capacity actually ramps as promised and whether margin or cash flow pressure shows up once tariffs shift. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Super Micro Q4 Earnings Loom--Should You Buy, Hold, or Sell?
Aug 1 - Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) prepares to report fiscal fourth-quarter 2025 results on August 5, with analysts watching for a potential earnings surprise as the company leans on surging AI infrastructure demand. Wall Street expects revenue near $6 billion, slightly below the midpoint of management's prior outlook, and EPS estimates also reflect modest expectations. The San Jose-based server and data center solutions provider navigated a soft fiscal Q3 as revenue came in at $4.6 billion, up 19% year-over-year but just shy of forecasts. Management attributed the shortfall to customers delaying purchases amid the transition from Nvidia's (NVDA) Hopper to Blackwell GPUs, with deferred orders expected to contribute to a stronger Q4 and early fiscal 2026. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Signs with SMCI. Super Micro continues to expand globally, launching over 30 new Blackwell-based AI server solutions and forming a multi?year, $20 billion partnership with Saudi DataVolt to deploy ultra?dense GPU platforms in the U.S., U.K., and Saudi Arabia. With 9% share of the AI platform market and 31% in branded AI servers, the company positions itself for growth as liquid?cooled and high?density solutions drive demand. Investors now look for confirmation that Q3 was a reset, not a slowdown. Based on the one year price targets offered by 16 analysts, the average target price for Super Micro Computer Inc is $41.06 with a high estimate of $70.00 and a low estimate of $15.00. The average target implies a downside of -27.40% from the current price of $56.55. Based on GuruFocus estimates, the estimated GF Value for Super Micro Computer Inc in one year is $71.09, suggesting a upside of +25.71% from the current price of $56.55. Gf value is Gurufocus' estimate of the fair value that the stock should be traded at.

Delta Air Lines tries to calm fury over ticket prices, telling lawmakers it won't use AI
Delta Air Lines said Friday it will not use artificial intelligence to set personalized ticket prices for passengers after facing sharp criticism from lawmakers. Last week, Democratic Senators Ruben Gallego, Mark Warner and Richard Blumenthal said they believed the Atlanta-based airline would use AI to set individual prices, which would 'likely mean fare price increases up to each individual consumer's personal 'pain point.'' Delta has said it plans to deploy AI-based revenue management technology across 20% of its domestic network by the end of 2025 in partnership with Fetcherr, an AI pricing company. Delta has said it plans to deploy AI-based revenue management technology across 20% of its domestic network by the end of 2025. AFP via Getty Images 'There is no fare product Delta has ever used, is testing or plans to use that targets customers with individualized prices based on personal data,' Delta told the senators in a letter on Friday, seen by Reuters. 'Our ticket pricing never takes into account personal data.' The senators cited a comment in December by Delta President Glen Hauenstein that the carrier's AI price-setting technology is capable of setting fares based on a prediction of 'the amount people are willing to pay for the premium products related to the base fares.' Last week, American Airlines CEO Robert Isom said using AI to set ticket prices could hurt consumer trust. 'This is not about bait and switch. This is not about tricking,' Isom said on an earnings call, adding 'talk about using AI in that way, I don't think it's appropriate. And certainly from American, it's not something we will do.' Delta said airlines have used dynamic pricing for more than three decades, in which pricing fluctuates based on a variety of factors like overall customer demand, fuel prices and competition but not a specific consumer's personal information. 'There is no fare product Delta has ever used, is testing or plans to use that targets customers with individualized prices based on personal data,' Delta told the senators in a letter. AFP via Getty Images 'Given the tens of millions of fares and hundreds of thousands of routes for sale at any given time, the use of new technology like AI promises to streamline the process by which we analyze existing data and the speed and scale at which we can respond to changing market dynamics,' Delta's letter said. It added that AI can 'assist our analysts with pricing by reducing manual processes, accelerating analysis and improving time to market for pricing adjustments.'
