Elsewhere, the National Basketball Association (NBA) and AWS announced a multi-year partnership to power the league’s next generation of innovation, as AWS would be the Official Cloud and Cloud AI Partner of the NBA and its affiliate leagues, including WNBA, NBA G League, Basketball Africa League, and NBA Take-Two Media.

Mairs & Power, an investment advisor, released its Q2 2025 investor letter. Here is what the fund said:

“The Fund also started a new position in Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) in the second quarter, where the company is well positioned to continue capturing market share in retail while also growing its market leading cloud business. The Fund took advantage of weakness in the stock during April to start the position as tariff news and a precipitous market decline provided an opportunity to build a position.”
