AMAZON AMZN Earnings - Buy the Rumour Sell the News / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
AMAZON - $97.5, EGF -61%, EGF12M -65%, PE 51
Another FAANG stock that retail investors obsess over. The problem with Amazon is that it has never been cheap! That has always been at risk of a valuation reset hence it's recent dissent into the pit of investing hell for all those who failed to read the writing only recently bottoming out at $81. If you look at the charts then you will see that Amazon is to date the only one that has become MORE EXPENSIVE as the stock price has fallen! This is a function of PRINTING SHARES coupled with Amazon being Bezos' personal piggy bank to extract funds from for his boyz toyz. The stock price has bounced to resistance so I don't see much upside. Amazon is definitely not one stock to get carried away with accumulating, I am not seeing a way for this stock to get anywhere near it's all time highs for many years!

Is AMAZON a DYING Tech GIANT? / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The stocks bear market continues with most AI tech stocks putting in new bear market lows during the past week, with key exceptions being Facebook and AVGO. Whilst Apple, Microsoft and Nvidia were the weakest stocks of the week, though all stocks rallied strongly Friday led by AMD which ended the week up 10% followed by Micron at +6% which are definitely two stocks to aim to accumulate during any further market weakness.

How Low Could the Amazon (AMZN) Stock Price Fall? / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Amazon $2485 : PE 46.7: EGF -68% : EC 332
Amazon Crashed 10% on BAD earnings as Amazon delivered an EPS of -$7.56 vs $8.73 expected, why were Amazon's earnings so bad? It's because the US is going into significant economic slowdown that increases the odds of a recession being declared this year!. Amazons PE before earnings was 43.7, AFTER earnings and the price plunge the PE is 46.7, That's right AMAZON is MORE EXPENSIVE AFTER the PRICE DROP THAN BEFORE! Pay attention here and learn a valuable lesson not to just buy a stock because it drops! For amazon to trade at a PE of 43.7 the stock would need to drop to $2325.

AMAZON the Dark Horse Stock / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Blasted off into space on strong earnings just as I was getting ready to gorge on it's post earnings corpse Facebook style. Still I had built a sizeable stake via dozens of small orders in the lead up to the earnings report which painted a picture of a stock that looks set to put earnings (profits) before reinvestments, or it could be just a one off, i.e. cashing on the Christmas trade boosted by the last pandemic wave of any significance.
My current exposure has fallen a little to 1.7% from 1.9% of the week before as I took the rally to and ABOVE $3,200 to take profits in advance of further buying opportunities in Amazon later, especially if it comes anywhere near filling it's distant buying levels. The PE drops to 48.7 but on the EGF basis the PE falls to 28 hence why the stock popped higher so strongly.

BUY Amazon Stock at a 5% DIscount / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Amazon - 5% Discount
Traded down from $3450 to a low of $3270 on a bad earnings report, it should have fallen a lot more, but investors seem content to buy a company trading on a PE of 68. There is a market disconnect here. so I am lowering my buying level for Amazon from $3020 to $2600, and even that is probably still too high for what it is..

Amazon (AMZN) Stock Summer Prime Day Discount Sale / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
2. AMAZON - $3312
Amazons stock price is up 7.5% on my last update when I considered it fair value, though now it looking a little pricey with it's EC rising to 66, so I cannot see how Amazon can have much upside in the immediate future. Not a good buy at current levels so the Buy % is 35%.

Unfortunately this means the odds are stacked against all those looking for lower prices. Of course we can get lucky and the market panics and takes the likes of Amazon with it but in technical and valuation terms seems very unlikely.

Amazon AI Stocks Investing Analysis 2021 / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
Amazon had soared into the stratosphere, literally doubling in price from its March low, breaking above $3400 early July putting Amazon on an eye watering EC level of 148, prompting me to sell over 50% of my holdings which I flagged ahead of time in the comments, following which Amazon did correct down to $2900 though not to anywhere near it's buying level of $2525. Following which Amazon did manage to break to a new high of $3552, but again it was not able to hold the levels due very high valuations which currently has Amazon trading down to $3099 and it looks like I'm not the only one who thought Amazon had become a bit too expensive as Jeff Bezos sold another $3 billion of Amazon stock early November bringing his total sales for 2020 to $10 billion.

AMAZON (AMZN) Tech Stock for Machine Learning Mega trend Investing / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
This analysis will now seek to update potential buying levels for AI stocks during Q2 of where stocks could trade down to in terms of technical support levels during the anticipated general stock market correction of about 15% that should be imminent.
Top 5 AI Stocks are all primary, the ordering of which is arbitrary for instance of the 3 Google, Amazon and Microsoft it's a toss up of which comes first. For instance If I was compiling the list today then I would likely put Amazon at No1 ahead of Google. So keep in mind that the rankings are more in terms of primary, Secondary and Tertiary rather than their number order.

AMAZON Stock Investing in AI Machine Intelligence Mega-trend 2020 and Beyond / Companies / Amazon
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The juggernaut that is Artificial Intelligence continues to rumble along towards an inexorable future, one that most still fail to grasp the magnitude of the changes that are just around the corner as humans think in linear terms whilst the AI trend is EXPONENTIAL. Where developments that even the proponents of AI thought would take several years are taking place in mere MONTHS! That is the power of the unfolding AI MEGA-TREND!
AI has already CHANGED THE WORLD! EXPONENTIALLY! You have an AI super computer right in your pocket for likely less than £1000!
Especially, when one marries AI with other big world changing tech mega-trend "Quantum Computing"! Put the 2 together and we are literally going to see an explosion in SUPER INTELLGENCE that would soon far exceed that of human intelligence, following which it won't be that many years before the AI exceeds the intelligence of the sum of ALL humans! For better or worse, that's the path we are on.
And all those who say AI can be controlled are going to be proven wrong, as new technologies tend to be first sequestered towards military aims. So whilst we focus on the benefits of AI in reality AI is a POWERFUL WEAPON and so the world is in an AI arms race, commercial, economic and military AI arms race.

This Invisible Tech Stock Threatens Amazon with 800,000+ Online Stores / Companies / Amazon
By: Stephen_McBride
Have you heard of Dollar Shave Club?
It sells razors and other grooming products for men.
In just five years, it has grown into a $1 billion company and one of the biggest “personal care” brands in America… and it’s now threatening giants like Gillette and Schick.
You might be surprised to learn the company pulled this off without selling a single product in a physical store.
You can’t buy its razors or aftershave in Walmart, Target, Costco, or anywhere else in the “real world.” It only sells its products on the internet.
Now here’s the truly shocking thing...

By: Stephen_McBride

These days, you can click a button and get almost anything delivered to your door.
Amazon sold $164 billion worth of stuff on its website this year.
If there were a disruptor stock hall of fame, Amazon would be first in line.
But Amazon didn’t disrupt shopping alone. Goods can’t ship themselves.

Amazon (AMZN) – Highlighting Next Area For Buyers / Companies / Amazon
By: ElliottWaveForecast
We recently wrote an article explaining why Mr Jeff Bezos had nothing to worry about after being down $45B in October’s market sell off and also stated the obvious fact that trend in Amazon (AMZN) is up and pull backs are a buying opportunity. AMZN reached our blue box area starting from $1477 at the end of October and buyers were waiting there as expected. We keep mentioning that once a blue box is reached, two things can happen, either the trend will resume or there will be a minimum 3 waves reaction from the blue box to allow the longs to eliminate risk on the trade by trailing stops or booking partial profits and then trailing stops. Amazon bounce quickly reached 50% Fibonacci retracement of the decline from 9/4/2018 peak which was good enough for the longs from $1477 to get risk free. However, sellers have managed to push price below 10/30/2018 low which creates an incomplete 5 swings sequence down from 9/4/2018 peak. Let’s take a look at the chart below

Looking at the Amazon Tax / Companies / Amazon
By: Rodney_Johnson

Now, online retailers must collect sales tax based on the consumer’s location, no matter where the retailer resides.
Before I get to what this means to Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN) and others, it’s worth recalling that just because states could not force out of state retailers to collect the tax, it was always due.
