With more Americans seeking out organic food and fresh produce, natural grocery chains like Sprouts Farmers Market stand to benefit. But there’s a lot of competition in the fresh produce lane. It's not just grocery chains such as Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods battling for market share; Sprouts also ...

Shares of U.S. technology megacaps tumbled on Monday as SpaceX fell for the third straight session and hyperscalers Alphabet and Amazon looked set to lose billions of dollars in market value, driven by AI spending concerns.

Alphabet dropped 6%, set for its biggest one-day fall since May 2025 and on pace to erase more than $256 billion in market capitalization.

Amazon Prime Day starting on Tuesday will be a litmus test of U.S. shoppers' spending power, with the earlier-than-usual sales event increasingly centered on perishable groceries, household basics and back-to-school needs rather than carefree splurges. The four-day blitz running June 23 to 26, comes after Amazon shifted it from July, citing a calendar crowded by the FIFA World Cup and the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. What shoppers add to their carts is as important as how much they spend, helping gauge whether recent U.S. consumer resilience is holding or beginning to crack.

Amazon said on Friday its Indian operations had reached a major milestone in water conservation, at a time when global tech giants face increasing pressure over their expansion of resource-hungry AI data centres. The U.S.-based company announced it had turned "water positive" in India this year - meaning it returns more water to communities than it uses across its operations, which include data centres, corporate offices and warehouses. Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet's Google are among companies that are facing shareholder and activist pushback over the environmental impact of data centre projects, Reuters reported earlier this year.
