This is probably my favorite profile I've ever written. @MarcLore is a complex subject and I'm grateful that he opened up like he did. I think there's all sorts of personal and professional lessons in here for many of us -- founders and beyond. I hope you'll give it a read.
Inside the restless mind of a serial founder: @MarcLore sold Quidsi ( for $545mm and for $3.3bn. @DelRey details why the Timberwolves co-owner can't stop hustling

Don't think I've ever heard a CEO go on an unscripted 8-minute monologue to answer an analyst question. But that's exactly what Andy Jassy did on today's earnings call in defending the company's AI playbook @FortuneMagazine .

AWS is the clear cloud leader in Big Tech. But fast-growing rivals, and the AI boom, have investors spooked.

I know it's Amazon day but I have to ask something I haven't thought I'd ask again: Is eBay actually sexy again as its stock surges to an all-time high? @FortuneMagazine .

The 30-year-old auction site is riding hot, historically strong product categories to its best performance in years.

Essentially a @Courtyard_io clone?

The NYC startup sells $50 million of Pokemon and sports cards a month.
GameStop’s next move: A digital collectibles platform. Collectors can buy mystery “Power Packs” with PSA-graded cards in them and instantly sell them back, store them in the PSA Vault, flip them on eBay or have the physical card shipped to them.

Peter smart.
Linda Yaccarino could never repair the Musk-sized hole in Twitter's ad business. Only Musk could do that, and he didn't want to bother. But when Tesla started tanking because of Musk-inflicted damage, he at least tried to do something about it.

You don't know how much damage one piece of Caesar chicken can do until you drop it on your shirt, requiring a video shoot to be postponed and your dignity crushed.

Ten years after Amazon launched Prime Day, this year’s version of the online shopping and discount extravaganza is unlike any other in the company’s history.

Enjoyed talking e-com and AI shopping with Scot for @FortuneMagazine. We got into the major disruption that could be coming to industry incumbents big and small -- from Amazon to small legacy retailers.
Great catching up with @DelRey and talking about Agentic Shopping and how disruptive it’s going to be for incumbents. Will they escape the Innovator’s Dilemma? . In this Fortune Q+A, I go thru the setup on how this will play out->.

It's a shame the Knicks fell short of the championship in the final year of New York City's existence.
