Amazon’s best Echo speakers and screens just got their biggest discounts

While Amazon’s previous lineup of Echo speakers and smart displays was boring, frankly, its late 2025 hardware refresh brought better hardware, improved performance, and Alexa Plus to several models. If you feel like your room(s) could benefit from speakers to deliver tunes, audiobooks, or podcasts to more corners of your home, or screens to show recipes, photos, or videos, there are some great early Big Spring Sale deals that are worth checking out. In terms of smart displays, Amazon’s Echo Show 11 is a great deal at $169.99 (was $219.99), while the smaller Echo Show 8 with an 8.7-inch screen is $139.99 (was $179.99). Our Jennifer Pattison Tuohy has used both, and considers their screens “light-years ahead” of the previous model, though the larger device has a 1080p screen while the smaller is at 720p resolution. Moving to speakers, the $189.99 (usually $219.99) Echo Studio gives the Apple HomePod 2 a run for its money, with room-filling sound and Atmos support. Even Amazon’s smaller, cheaper Echo Dot Max at $74.99 (was $99.99) is a solid value, thanks to its improved design and performance. Here are all of the deals in one place: Echo Show 11 The Echo Show 11 features an 11-inch screen and 1080p resolution. It includes Alexa Plus and can be used as a smart home hub, supporting Thread, Matter, and Zigbee smart home protocols.

It beats the price of Samsung’s Mario-themed 256GB microSD Express card that was discounted to $39.99 (from $59.99) for Mario Day. $550 was the price to beat for the last-gen Apple Watch Ultra 2 smartwatch, and it’s now available for $499 for t

NVDA’s Factor Profile is Wild – Insane Growth & Profitability, but Valuation Screaming Overpriced Ahead of GTC?

Just ran NVIDIA ($NVDA) through an 8-factor quantitative model (Z-score vs broad market) right before GTC 2026 (March 16-19). The result… is something. Factor Profile (as of March 14, 2026): Size: Massive cap, top-tier Profitability: +2.82 → top 7% of all stocks, gross margins ~75% (hardware company pulling that is insane) Growth: +2.55 → top 7%, Q4 revenue $68.1B (+73% YoY), full year $215.9B, Q1 guidance $78B blew past $72B consensus Leverage: Low, fortress balance sheet Momentum: Strong (post-Q4 surge) Stability: Weak (-1.5 to -2 range), 52-week swing from $86 to $212 = 145% volatility Dividend: Basically nonexistent ($0.01/quarter) Value: -1.69 → bottom 10%, P/E 37x with perfection priced in The good stuff: Growth & profitability elite – Data Center $62.3B (+75% YoY), AI demand still exploding Low leverage + $41B buybacks in FY26 = shareholder-friendly fortress The uncomfortable part: Valuation screaming expensive: P/E 37x, any stumble (Blackwell/Rubin delay, hyperscaler capex slowdown) could get ugly fast Stability weak: 145% swing in 52 weeks – not for the faint-hearted Dividend basically zero – pure growth play What I’m watching: Jensen Huang teased a chip that’ll “surprise the world” at GTC this week. Consensus targets suggest big upside from here, but HBM supply constraints could become a real bottleneck (management flagged it). I really want to add more to my B.itget stock portfolio, but with the US–Iran war, something tells me to stay with futures for short-term trades, because everything could still change quickly. Global markets are already reacting to the conflict, with rising oil prices and increased volatility affecting stocks worldwide. Curious where you stand: Is NVDA’s growth story strong enough to justify this valuation, or are we deep in “priced for perfection” territory? submitted by /u/Woodpecker5987 [link] [comments]
