    It's more of an accounting ploy, after sale to a newly created special-purpose vehicle company Amazon will be leasing the GPUs back to themselves.

    Also probably works as some risk mitigation if the chips become quikcly outdated - it will be on another company's balance sheets.

    These are my very quick takes, FT article still isn't available on archive.is, but this has some insight from it: https://dealroom.co/news/other-1ltaeys-amazon-seeks-to-offlo...

      Their prices will rise until 2028, so they'll need to rent fit back for more than they sold

        If only they had some sort of marketplace to be able to sell them off at a reasonable price.
