This summary was created by AI, based on 85 opinions in the last 12 months.

Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) is currently seen as a compelling investment opportunity, particularly due to its robust growth in the AWS sector, which accounts for the majority of its operating income and is benefiting significantly from recent AI-driven developments. Experts note the strong performance of AWS, with growth rates nearing 40%, which indicates substantial momentum in the cloud services market. Analysts admire the company’s strategic investments in AI and robotics, which are expected to enhance productivity and margin growth across its divisions. However, concerns about high capital expenditures and the need for these investments to translate into tangible returns have also been highlighted. Despite these challenges, the overall sentiment suggests that AMZN is well-positioned for future growth and continues to dominate the e-commerce and cloud infrastructure landscape.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 28/19, Up 75%) The world turned out to be Amazon's playground. He has a $4000 plus target on it.
TOP PICK
Perfectly positioned for the pandemic and its empire continues to flourish. Profitability is increasing. Unstoppable juggernaut. If it holds its multiples, should easily exceed $4000 in the next 12 months. Any government tax action won't have much of an impact. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $3813.13)
BUY
It is his third largest holding. He has been increasing his weighting. The organization is an aggressive, well run one. Pharmacy will be a long term growth driver for them. Their cloud service is showing growth. There might be a slowdown temporarily when COVID slows down next summer.
COMMENT

A phenomenal name and the pandemic has accelerated revenue and growth. The PEG ratio is 2x. Comparing it to Alibaba and others in China, it is more expensive. However, there is less regulatory risk. Nothing wrong with it. He owns other e-commerce names in China. Better value could be out there.

BUY
15 years ago, Amazon took the long game by investing long-term, and now that is paying off handsomely. The only worry is that the US government is taking aim at them due to their huge size--this could restrain the company. Regardless, the cash flow will remain huge and Amazon will keep growing.
HOLD
Always had difficulty with the valuation, over 70x forward earnings. She's a growth at a reasonable price manager. It's done well, cloud business growing rapidly. Hold it if you own it. She wouldn't buy at current price levels.
BUY
Last week, Amazon reported a massive upside surprise, but got hammered. Today, it jumped 6% to erase that loss. It didn't deserve to sell off. Sadly, a tailwind continues to be Covid, which is keeping people shopping from home. Amazon has spent $4 billion on security and supply chain security.
PARTIAL BUY
Amazon reported good numbers, but still got crushed. Why? Sentiment over the entire market, given Covid cases and the upcoming US election. Pick up some shares now and wait till after the election.
BUY ON WEAKNESS

Looking at technicals right now, the market has tried to break through and has failed a couple of times. It could be choppy through the election. We could be ready for a 5-7% pull-back over the next couple of weeks. Your entry point will be late October or early November. He would slightly prefer GOOG-Q.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Huge run, so has built in a lot of potential. Simple platform to use, so subscriptions will increase. Disruptive to cargo and shipping. Hard not to like it long-term. Valuation not as crazy as it once was. Would consider adding to new portfolios if there's volatility in the next few weeks.
PARTIAL BUY

Amazon vs. Apple He owns Apple. The companies are completely different. Apple's ecosystem will continue to dominate. Amazon's valuation is excessive, but the growth justifies the stock price. Sometimes you hold your nose and buy, say, half a position. Buy, hold and don't trade. Add on weakness. (Same with Microsoft and Google.) Amazon will continue to take share from brick-and-mortar retailers. Just look at how often you shop Amazon.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Although analysts expect retail spending to grow this holiday by 1.5%, e-commerce sales are expected to be up 25-35% -- and AMZN is the king of this space. Q2 sales were up 40%, revenue up 47% and net income was nearly double year ago levels. The stock recently made a pullback and has re-ignited once again. We like the technical breakout, which now projects up towards $3900. We would trade this with a stop-loss at $2900. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $3726.00)
COMMENT

Prime day is actually two days this year (Tuesday, Wednesday). There's hype preceeding that by analysts today. This led to Amazon jumping 4.75%. Like Apple, there's a risk of disappointing because of this hype.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 01/19, Up 78%) Bought when there was a bull's eye on big tech with regulations. Unfortunately, a boost with Covid. Model it growing at 72%. Still not bad value. Still a buy.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Today's pullback is a buying opportunity ahead of Prime Day next day. People are still shopping online.
