Amazon staff might get paid 50% less because shares have fallen so much

Share prices went up due to increased spending at the start of the pandemic (after the initial lockdowns) and it’s weird that people didn’t expect them to come back down - they’re basically back where they were in 2019

In 2020, there were quite a few possibilities, ranging from "it's a flu" to "the new normal."

I think share prices had all of those baked in. "New normal" would have meant the end of retail.

Now that we know where things landed, it's possible to re-adjust.

Yeah in 2020 that was understandable, but I can't imagine thinking that in January 2022.
