Amazon (AMZN) announced the launch of a comprehensive GLP-1 Management Program through Amazon One Medical that integrates primary care, pharmacy services, and virtual care options to help patients achieve lasting weight loss results. Amazon says its new program addresses these challenges by connecting GLP-1 management with primary care and Amazon Pharmacy in one place, adding that the new program integrates GLP-1 management into patients' broader primary care relationship, proactively managing how weight loss intersects with cardiovascular health, metabolic conditions, and overall health. The program is available now at Amazon One Medical locations across the U.S. Amazon Pharmacy said it now offers the newly FDA-approved Wegovy and Foundayo oral GLP-1 pills for weight management, with insurance coverage starting as low as $25 per month or cash-pay options starting at $149 per month for both oral medications. Amazon Pharmacy also provides Wegovy injectables, Zepbound auto-injector, and KwikPen-a multi-dose injectable delivering a full month of medication in a single device, with cash-pay pricing starting at $299 per month. All medications are available for fast delivery to all 50 states, with Same-Day Delivery to nearly 3,000 cities and towns today and expanding to nearly 4,500 by the end of 2026. The Fly notes that shares of Hims & Hers (HIMS), which sells peptide-based products, are down 6.3% in premarket trading.

Amazon May Start Selling Its Custom AI Chips to Outside Companies
- New Chip Sales Direction: Amazon is in discussions to sell its custom Trainium accelerators to potential buyers, a move that could position its chips in direct competition with Nvidia's GPUs, marking a strategic shift for Amazon in the AI chip market.
- Strong Market Demand: Amazon's Trainium business crossed a $20 billion annual revenue run rate in Q1 2026, growing at a triple-digit pace, indicating robust demand in AI computing, with major clients like OpenAI and Anthropic committed to using its chips.
- Significant Cost Advantage: Amazon argues that Trainium performs comparably to GPUs but at a lower cost, and selling chips externally is expected not to cannibalize AWS demand, potentially attracting more customers through competitive pricing.
- Positive Market Reaction: While Amazon's plans may pressure Nvidia's pricing power, the market generally believes both can coexist, as Nvidia's stock rose about 3% following the news, reflecting investor optimism about the future market landscape.
