Amazon CEO ‘relieved’ after Hamas releases employee taken hostage — while company was slammed over silence during his captivity
Jassy says that the company had a team of experts working with Troufanov’s family “behind the scenes” to secure his release.
The exec explained that Amazon “painfully” could not comment on Troufanov’s abduction publicly “for fear that we would negatively impact their ability to be released or how they were treated in captivity.”
Amazon faced criticism in May 2024 when it was revealed that Troufanov worked for the company, as many noted that the company hadn’t said anything publicly.

NEW: The union representing over 17,000 United pilots just sent out an email promoting DEI which includes trans activist Maya Tallman, a man who pretends to be a woman.
Does this make you feel safe to fly?
There will always be questions about whether they got where they got on merit, or whether it was DEI.
Except in that fruitloop in the clown suit. That individual is mentally ill, and I wouldn't feel good about knowing he was in the cockpit if I was flying.

Ignore the stock market — Wall Street dealing with painful detox from government spending addiction
Wall Street is puking big-time, and the Sell buttons are working overtime whenever the word “tariff” passes from Donald Trump’s lips. If you listen to the fat cat community long enough, you’d think Trump has been in office four years rather than four weeks, and that a small trade surcharge on a car from Mexico is leading us into economic Armageddon.
I’m no fan of tariffs for lots of reasons — including that I hate paying too much for stuff — but I’ve also taken enough econ and studied markets long enough to know that they’re not the end of the world as we know it. I also know that the Trump economic plan is much more than tariffs; it’s about tax cuts, deleveraging the federal government’s involvement in the private sector and allowing the private sector to thrive.
It’s about unleashing the animal spirits of the US entrepreneur through deregulation.
Morgan Stanley’s Bull Case: Why Tesla’s Sell-Off is an Opportunity
The recent pessimism surrounding Tesla’s stock is, in many ways, a familiar pattern in its storied history—periods of exuberance followed by moments of panic, each fueling the next dramatic turn in valuation. As it stands today, Morgan Stanley’s assertion that Tesla is poised for a 300% surge may seem audacious, yet history suggests such a transformation is well within the realm of possibility. More importantly, the argument supporting this thesis rests not on blind optimism, but on a compelling intersection of market forces, technological evolution, and the peculiar psychology of Tesla’s investors.
A fundamental premise of Morgan Stanley’s call is that Tesla is not merely an automaker but an "embodied AI compounder"—a term that captures its ability to integrate artificial intelligence into real-world applications at an unmatched scale. This places it in a unique position within the broader tech ecosystem, particularly as the world inches closer to widespread automation and AI-driven mobility. While competitors may dabble in AI, Tesla’s vertically integrated approach—spanning chips, software, data collection, and fleet deployment—makes it the company best positioned to extract meaningful value from these advancements.
Skeptics point to Tesla’s recent sales slump—a 45% year-over-year decline in January—and a brutal 15.4% single-day drop in stock price as evidence that its once-unshakable dominance is eroding. But history tells us that Tesla’s stock often behaves less like that of a traditional automaker and more like a high-growth technology company. Market sentiment for such stocks can shift abruptly, particularly when pivotal events signal a dramatic shift in narrative. For Tesla, these catalysts are already forming.
One of the most significant is the impending "Austin Robotaxi" unveiling, an event that could serve as a watershed moment for Tesla’s AI ambitions. Autonomous vehicles remain one of the most elusive, yet potentially transformative, technological breakthroughs of the 21st century. Regulatory hurdles have long dampened investor enthusiasm, but if Tesla can demonstrate a near-ready product with a viable path to deployment, it could catalyze a major sentiment shift. Moreover, Federal rulemaking on autonomous driving could further solidify Tesla’s leadership position in this space, adding another layer of credibility to its AI-driven future.
Then there is Optimus, Tesla’s humanoid AI project. Once dismissed as a futuristic side endeavor, Optimus is beginning to attract serious attention as a potential long-term driver of Tesla’s growth. If it follows the viral trajectory of other tech phenomena—akin to the way Dogecoin captured retail investor enthusiasm—it could provide an unexpected tailwind for Tesla’s valuation. The market has a long history of pricing in grand visions before they materialize; Optimus has the potential to become one such driver.
Political factors, often underappreciated in stock analysis, also favor Tesla’s resurgence. The endorsement of Tesla by President Trump—alongside his own purchase of a Tesla vehicle—signals a shift in sentiment among a key demographic. This may translate into both consumer and investor enthusiasm, particularly if Tesla finds itself aligned with policy decisions that support domestic manufacturing, AI leadership, and regulatory clarity for autonomous vehicles. The ability to navigate political currents has long been a hallmark of Tesla’s success, and this latest development only adds to its potential upside.
Despite its recent struggles, Tesla’s valuation remains compelling. With a forward-looking perspective, Morgan Stanley sees Tesla trading at a mere 19x projected FY30 P/E ratio and a 10x EV/EBITDA multiple—figures that, in the context of a rapidly evolving AI landscape, make its current price appear more like an opportunity than a cautionary tale. The key is perspective: the market often struggles to correctly price disruptive companies in moments of transition. When sentiment shifts, valuations can recalibrate with astonishing speed.
