Amazon (AMZN)

AMZN stock has also done well in 2017, up 14%. We all know about the decaying retail sector and Amazon’s ability to capitalize on that weakness. But judging the future of commerce can be difficult, especially with how quickly Amazon continues to move.

The biggest concern for Amazon skeptics has been earnings. Despite years of 20%-plus revenue growth, AMZN’s bottom line has hugged the flatline. Management argues that it’s investing in itself for even more growth and so far, investors have been patient. They’ve also been rewarded.

Over the past 10 years, shares are up more than 2,000%. Thankfully, Amazon started to pad its bottom line with its Web Services cloud business.

While I personally love Amazon, I would be a bit leery of AMZN stock at these prices. Just last year we found out the hard way how fast things can change with sentiment.

In the beginning of 2016, AMZN stock stumbled from $675 to sub-$500 in just five weeks. That 26% haircut startled plenty of investors, despite the stock rebounding to north of $800 a share within a year.

The lesson here is simple: Amazon shares are not invincible during pullbacks. Should we get a notable broader market correction, AMZN stock will not be spared. That is the best time to buy the stock.

Now that it’s through the holiday season and continues to invest at a heavy pace, shares could struggle in the intermediate term.

A decline to its 200-day moving average would be a great place to initiate a long position. That mark is currently near $780 per share. Any further declines could be used to accumulate the stock.

3 Reasons Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) Stock Could Retreat

It doesn't pay to bet against AMZN stock in the long run, but it could run into turbulence over the next month

By Robert Martin

Quidsi: Amazon just announced yesterday that it’s putting the kibosh on Quidsi, the operator of six shopping sites, foremost of which is Diapers.com.

While AMZN isn’t known for making big-ticket acquisitions, the Quidsi purchase in 2011 for $545 million still ranks among the company’s top five.


Amazon Go: the company recently admitted that it’s not ready for a proper launch, and might not be for some time. Amazon, which is testing the concept in Seattle, can’t track more than 20 customers simultaneously and is having difficulty tracking items once they’re in customers’ possession.


The stock is starting to look overbought from a technical perspective according to the Relative Strength Index (RSI).

How Amazon.com Inc. Makes Most of Its Money

Amazon’s revenue model is simpler than it might seem.

by Andrew Tonner

AWS produces the bulk of its actual earnings, even as the company has repeatedly slashed prices for its cloud computing products in a bid to capture as much market share as possible.

Stocks to Buy for the Next Decade: Amazon (AMZN)

Not only is Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) CEO and founder Jeff Bezos a great chief executive, but Amazon has its hands in so many pies — including a very profitable cloud business that generates almost $1 billion in annual operating income — that it’s hard to fathom just how big Amazon could be a decade from now.

While Amazon’s AWS cloud business is a big deal, Amazon Prime is the service that delivers the goods when it comes to building the foundation for AMZN stock.

More than 100 million people subscribe to Amazon Prime at $99 per year.

It’s not the $9.9 billion in annual subscription revenue that matters, but the amount each of those subscribers spends on other Amazon products.

Statistics show that 76% of Amazon Prime members spend more than they did before paying the annual $99 fee.

That’s what you call “pulling power,” and it’s a big reason why AMZN stock will be a winner for the long haul.
