Going live with a few news items, Steve covers Amazon's decision to ease inventory performance (IPI) storage limits heading into 2022, which he expects will affect fewer than 10 percent of sellers, along with tighter rules against using rebate sites to manipulate rankings.
He also flags the wave of Amazon aggregators raising capital to acquire seller brands, and previews plans for a comparison of different aggregators, plus a systemic approach to deciding when a product should be retired from a lineup.
