Amazon (AMZN): Coalition demands NY labor investigation into Amazon safety violations
A coalition has demanded that the New York Department of Labor investigate Amazon for safety violations, announced just before the close on October 6. The stock surged 1.1 sigma that day and again the next, indicating the market views the demand as unlikely to lead to significant action or as a positive development. The next decisive step is the labor department's decision on whether to launch an investigation.
