Yesterday evening, a lot of the worldโ€™s largest companies released their Q1 2022 earnings reports, including Amazon $AMZN (+1.9%) Apple $AAPL (+0.17%) Intel $INTC (-2.95%) and Twitter $TWTR


--Amazon shocks investors with a loss in the billions--


Amazon $AMZN (+1.9%) had a loss of $3.8 billion in the first quarter. This was due to weakening online sales and above all their depreciating stake in Rivian, which itself has lost $7.6 billion in value. The share has lost around nine percent in pre-market trading.


๐ŸŸฅ $AMZN (+1.9%)
Amazon.com Inc, $2,631.99 (๐Ÿ”ฝ-8.99%)

--Apple can be more convincing--


Apple $AAPL (+0.17%) has, despite the global chip crisis and supply chain problems, announced increased sales and profits. The iPhone manufacturer increased their sales by 9% to $97.2 billion in comparison to Q2 2021*. They posted a net profit of $25 billion, roughly 6% more than a year before.


๐ŸŸฅ $AAPL (+0.17%) Apple Inc, $160.01 (๐Ÿ”ฝ-2.22%)


(*Appleโ€™s fiscal year starts in October, therefore they have published these results as Q2 2022)

--Twitterโ€™s quarterly earnings slightly weaker--


The 16% increase in sales to $1.2 billion was the smallest in six quarters and missed expectations. This is not completely down to Twitterโ€™s $TWTR management, as other social media platforms have also experienced weakened sales growth. Analysts propose that supply chain issues, inflation and the war in Ukraine are contributors to lower advertising revenues. Despite this, they have seen user growth.


๐ŸŸฅ $TWTR Twitter Inc, $48.80 (๐Ÿ”ฝ-0.63%)

--Intel wains in a โ€˜post-pandemicโ€™ world--


The chip giant Intel $INTC (-2.95%) is feeling the lifting of restrictions and the move to a โ€˜post-pandemicโ€™ world and its impact on the PC industry. In the first quarter, sales decreased by 7 percent to $18.4 billion. A factor for this fall is the 14% decrease in sales of laptop chips (down to $6 billion), which Intel published after-market hours on Thursday.


๐ŸŸฅ $INTC (-2.95%) Intel Corporation, $45.01 (๐Ÿ”ฝ-3.91%)
