Right. So, everyone’s banging on about AI stocks, aren’t they? Like it’s some kind of magic money tree. Amazon and Robinhood are the darlings of the moment, apparently. Wall Street’s all breathless, whispering about undervalued potential. Honestly, it’s enough to make you reach for the gin. Let’s just… unpack this, shall we? Because, let’s be real, “undervalued” is often just a polite way of saying “slightly less likely to completely implode.”
They say Amazon’s got this AI thing locked down. Robots, driverless taxis… it’s all very futuristic. Analysts are cooing about a 34% upside. Thirty-four percent! As if a percentage point is going to save you when the whole thing goes sideways. They’re forecasting 15% annual earnings growth through 2027. Which, you know, sounds lovely. But let’s not pretend projections are written in stone. They’re more like hopeful scribbles on a napkin.
Amazon: Robots & Revenue (Or Lack Thereof)
Apparently, Amazon’s become the world’s biggest operator of industrial robots. Good for the robots, I suppose. It’s all about “physical AI,” they say. Which, as far as I can tell, means they’re trying to automate themselves out of needing actual human employees. Smart, in a slightly terrifying way. They’ve got this “DeepFleet” thing, coordinating robot movements. Ten percent faster delivery? Oh, joy. My life was clearly lacking in marginally quicker parcel arrival.
And then there’s the driverless taxi dream. Zoox, they call it. Testing in Vegas and San Francisco. Honestly, I’m picturing a chaotic ballet of self-driving cars and bewildered tourists. A trillion-dollar opportunity, they claim. Right. Because what we really need is more ways to avoid human interaction. I’m starting to suspect the entire thing is a plot to make us all agoraphobic.
Look, I’m not saying it won’t work. I’m just saying, if your entire investment strategy hinges on robots delivering packages and driverless taxis, you might want to consider a therapist. And maybe a diversified portfolio. Just a thought.
Robinhood Markets: Democratizing Risk (How Generous)
Robinhood. The name alone feels… ironic. It’s a platform for young investors, apparently. Gaining market share. Adding AI features. It’s all very… modern. They’re trying to make investing “accessible.” Which, let’s be honest, is just a fancy way of saying they’re encouraging people to gamble with their savings.
They’ve launched something called “Cortex.” AI-powered insights. Stock recommendations. It’s like having a slightly judgmental robot whispering in your ear. “Buy! Sell! You’re making terrible decisions!” Cortex Assistant will conduct research and adjust account settings. How… helpful. As if I needed another algorithm telling me what to do.
And then there’s the “Robinhood Ventures Fund.” Investing in private companies. Databricks, Revolut… the usual suspects. They’re going to add Stripe soon. It’s like a playground for venture capitalists. A very risky playground, but still. They’re “democratizing” access to venture capital. How… noble. It’s basically a way to let millennials throw money at unproven startups. What could possibly go wrong?
Wall Street expects earnings to increase 19% annually through 2027. A perfectly reasonable expectation, if you ignore the fact that most startups fail. They’re currently trading at 37 times earnings. Tolerable, they say. I say it’s optimistic. But hey, who am I to judge? I’m just a cynical observer with a penchant for dark humor.
