Amazon is replacing its Grubhub partnership with Uber Eats, letting Prime members order from Uber Eats directly within Amazon's website and app without an Uber account, and the Grubhub+ benefit ended as of Thursday. Prime members get $0 delivery fees on orders of $25 or more, with potential savings of up to $175 a year, plus $20 off each of their first two qualifying orders, and the benefit covers nearly 10,000 cities. The move comes as Amazon and Uber face growing competition from DoorDash and Walmart, a week after DoorDash announced a deal to buy Instacart. Uber stock fell 1.86% and DoorDash shares plummeted 14% on Thursday afternoon.

- DoorDash Sinks 13% as Amazon Taps Uber Eats for $0 Prime Restaurant Delivery
DoorDash shares fell 13% after Amazon and Uber said U.S. Prime members now pay a $0 delivery fee on Uber Eats restaurant orders of $25 or more placed through Amazon, with Uber Eats replacing Grubhub in that arrangement. Uber's delivery gross bookings rose 22% to $28.5 billion in Q3. The author notes that DoorDash still held 59% of delivery-app spending in Q3, against 18% for Uber Eats, and that its gross order value rose 36% to $33.9 billion. The author argues the selloff overshoots, since DoorDash traded at 28x forward earnings before the drop, versus a three-year average of 39x. The article also flags the $17 billion Instacart deal, at least 75% in cash, against $6.8 billion of cash and investments at the end of September.
- Amazon Prime Members Can Now Order Uber Eats Directly Through Amazon
Amazon and Uber announced a new benefit for U.S. Prime members: a $0 delivery fee on restaurant orders of $25 or more placed directly through Amazon, powered by Uber Eats.

- Amazon and Uber Introduce Uber Eats Delivery Benefit for US Prime Members
Amazon and Uber have partnered to let U.S. Amazon Prime members order restaurant meals from Uber Eats directly on Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app, with $0 delivery fees on restaurant orders of $25 or more. The service covers nearly 10,000 U.S. cities and towns and uses existing Amazon login and payment details, so no separate Uber account is needed. Eligible members can get $20 off each of their first two qualifying orders during the first 14 days, and Prime Visa cardholders can earn 5% back on Uber Eats orders through December 5, 2026. The companies estimate combined savings of more than $175 a year for typical ordering patterns, based on August 2026 order data. The companies did not disclose financial terms of the agreement.

- Amazon ditches GrubHub, taps Uber Eats for Prime
Amazon has made Uber Eats its official restaurant delivery partner for Prime members in the U.S., ending its existing deal with Grubhub on Thursday. Prime members can order through Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app without an Uber account and pay no delivery fee on orders over $25. To kick off the partnership, Amazon and Uber are offering $20 off a first order of $25 or more during the first two weeks. The deal deepens existing ties between the two companies, which already cooperate on cloud computing, Zoox robotaxis and the integration of Uber Eats into Alexa+. Amazon first partnered with Grubhub in 2022, later increased its equity stake and cashed out its warrants, and Grubhub had not responded to requests for comment before publication.

An introductory offer gives $20 off the first two Uber Eats restaurant orders of $25 or more within the first 14 days, while Prime-exclusive offers could save more than $175 per year. Prime Visa cardmembers earn 5% back on Uber Eats orders through December 5, 2026.

- Reddit Sinks 8% as Social Ad Worries Deepen in Tech Rout
Reddit (RDDT) shares fell 8% amid a broad tech selloff, after Snap reported only 4% ad revenue growth in the third quarter. The article argues Snap's slowdown is largely its own issue, since Meta's third-quarter revenue rose 26% to $64.6 billion. The bigger risk for Reddit is lost search traffic from Google's AI answers, which contributed to fourth-quarter revenue guidance of $1.00 billion to $1.03 billion, below expectations. Reddit's third-quarter revenue still rose 53% to $895 million, though analysts trimmed their 2027 revenue estimate to $4.34 billion from $4.47 billion. The article names the data-licensing renewal with Google, due in early 2027, as the next key test.
- Amazon-Uber Eats Deal Sends DASH Stock To Biggest Drop In A Year
DoorDash (DASH) shares fell 10% on Thursday after Amazon and Uber Technologies (UBER) announced a partnership giving Prime members free delivery on Uber Eats restaurant orders of $25 or more placed through Amazon's website or app, across the U.S. The deal replaces Amazon's previous Grubhub partnership, and Amazon estimates frequent users could save more than $175 a year, though service fees still apply. The article argues the arrangement gives Uber Eats immediate access to Amazon's large Prime base, raising competition for DoorDash, which holds a dominant share of U.S. restaurant delivery spending. Less than two weeks earlier, DoorDash agreed to acquire Instacart (CART) for roughly $17 billion, or $65 per share, with closing expected in late 2027 or early 2028. DASH stock is down 22% year to date.
- Amazon.com (AMZN) Could Gain From Slower AI Data Center Expansion
The article says Democrats' win in the 2026 U.S. midterm elections on November 5, 2026 could bring tighter scrutiny of AI infrastructure spending and new limits on large data center expansion, which could favor cloud providers such as Amazon that already operate substantial computing capacity. It cites Amazon's US$225b in Trainium commitments and US$578b backlog, against guided 2026 capex of about US$220b. The suggested early indicator is whether that backlog and new AI deals show up in AWS usage growth and operating cash flow. The article also flags that higher regulatory friction around power and tax treatment could weigh on free cash flow if the economics of AI spending shift.
- Top Democrats call to rein in AI buildout after midterms sweep: 'National data center moratorium now'
After Democrats' midterm wins on Tuesday, Sen. Bernie Sanders called for a national data center moratorium, pointing to local referendums where voters approved restrictions on data centers. A CNBC Voter Poll found 56% of voters said AI and data centers were a crucial or major factor in their vote, and 65% of those voters backed a Democratic congressional candidate. Gina Hinojosa, who ousted Gov. Greg Abbott in Texas, pledged a moratorium on all data center approvals until the legislature passes protective laws. Chip stocks led the sell-off, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) tumbling nearly 9% on Tuesday, Nvidia down 8% and Advanced Micro Devices down more than 14%.
- 3 Stocks Riding The Shift Away From Search Ads
The article reviews three stocks that could benefit from, or be hurt by, a shift away from search advertising after signs of weakness in Alphabet's search business. Nexxen International, a video and CTV ad platform with about $383 million in revenue and a $486 million market cap, is one. AppLovin, an AI-powered mobile ad platform with about US$6.8b in advertising revenue and a market cap of US$82.2b, saw its stock fall nearly 50% while an SEC investigation was open. The SEC dropped that case in August 2026 with no findings of wrongdoing. MNTN, a self-serve Connected TV ad platform with about $313 million in revenue and a $728 million market cap, is the third, with customer acquisition timing that may vary by quarter.
- Is Newmont (NEM) Still Undervalued On Stronger Q3 Earnings And Higher Guidance?
Newmont (NEM) rose 9.9% in one day to $118.11 after a third-quarter report showing higher sales and net income, lower reported costs and upgraded full-year production guidance. The stock is up 16.69% year to date, with a 1-year total shareholder return of 46.05% and a 3-year return of about 2.6x, supported by firmer gold prices, improved guidance and a maintained dividend. The article notes bulls cite stronger earnings and guidance, while bears argue the recent jump prices in too much. One widely followed narrative puts fair value at $137.07 per share, above the $118.11 close. Cited risks include lower-grade ore at key sites and higher sustaining capex that could squeeze future free cash flow.
