Market Sentiment Analysis

Yesterday's PPI report showed an unexpected contraction in producer prices for August, but investors will focus on today's CPI release. Equity markets brushed off the better-than-expected reading yesterday, but Oracle stole the show and kept the AI hype alive with a blockbuster earnings report and future guidance. Today's CPI report could determine how steeply the US Fed will slash interest Amazon Fundamental Analysis

Amazon is one of the Big Five US technology companies and a leader in the global AI race and cloud computing sector. It has excellent profit margins, but its debt remains excessive. AMZN is an industry disruptor but faces stiff competition from China.

So, why am I bearish on AMZN after its momentum shift?

Amazon has launched its Zoox robo-taxi, but it must invest more capital in the sector to become competitive. I like the long-term potential of Amazon, but I also see more downside in the medium term, driven by a capital-intensive business plan that has yet to deliver for investors. AI, cloud computing, and retail competition from China diminish its global sales outlook outside core US allies, and Jeff Bezos continues to offload shares.

Amazon Fundamental Analysis Snapshot

The price-to-earning (P/E) ratio of 35.11 makes AMZN an expensive stock. By comparison, the P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 is 30.22.

The average analyst price target for AMZN is $263.18. This suggests good upside potential, but medium-term downside risks Amazon Technical Analysis
