Should Amazon buy Rivian?

It's on sale, and it would help reduce logistics costs.

Why did Amazon incur a loss due to Rivian if they don’t own them?

Rivian Our1S May 9, 2022

They own 20%~

ByteDance BasicPay May 9, 2022

It’s dropped like 70% hasn’t it?

Idk the investment in rivan was a big cause of loss for amazon this past earnings. I believe there is a good montlyfool article about it.

How would it reduce logistics costs? Amazon already has quite an order in for the vans.

Amazon Rfuo351 OP May 9, 2022

It's an order. They still depend on another company to deliver on that order and ramp up production. That company has other priorities (pick truck,...).

So, buy a company and shut down half of their business?
