Motley Fool Money - AWS Goes AWOL: Are we Too Dependent on the Cloud?

AWS goes down again. Is it time to re-assess risk in the cloud and AI-era, where so much of the digital assistance we get is housed someplace we can’t see and controlled by someone we don’t know?


David Meier, Tom King, and Tim Beyers:

- Discuss the failures that led to the AWS outage this morning and which companies are services were impacted as a result.

- Debate whether companies have become too dependent on AWS and its peers, especially when virtually all the in-demand AI services we’re banking on are hosted in these clouds.

- Play another game of Faker or Breaker with three companies impacted by the AWS outage.


Don’t wait! Be sure to get to your local bookstore and pick up a copy of David’s Gardner’s new book — Rule Breaker Investing: How to Pick the Best Stocks of the Future and Build Lasting Wealth. It’s on shelves now; get it before it’s gone!


Companies discussed: AMZN, LYFT, UBER, HOOD, COIN, RBLX

Motley Fool Money - Making the Most of Medicare, and the Bull Turns 3

Retirement will be an opportunity to do many things you always wanted to do. But it may also be a time when you have to do something you’ve never had to do – namely, get your own health insurance. Most retirees will get their health insurance through Medicare, which in many ways is far more complicated than the health insurance they were receiving from their employers. Robert Brokamp speaks with CoverRight CEO Richard Chan about Medicare essentials where to go to get help during the current open enrollment period.


Also in this episode:


-The S&P 500 is up 90% since the current bull market began in October of 2022, but some investments have done even better – while others, not quite as good
-The average price of a new automobile crossed $50,000 for the first time ever, yet down payments on purchases are as low as they’ve been since 2021
-Those annoying texts telling you that you owe toll-booth money? They’re a scam, and have raked in more than $1 billion over the past three years
-Two rules of thumb for determining how much life insurance coverage you should have

Ikea hates raising prices, but has to because of tariffs… As the Trade War hits 200 days, here’s who’s paying.

Plus, the most profitable apple is the Honeycrisp… but it’s also the most hated.
