#1 - Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN)
One of the more intriguing earnings reports for investors to consider will come from Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN). There’s a sum-of-its-parts story developing around Amazon. In 2021, the focus was on the company’s e-commerce unit which thrived in a socially distant world.
But that masked the strength of Amazon Web Services (AWS). This makes Amazon a player in areas such as cloud computing, analytics, machine learning, and AI. It also made AMZN stock one of the Magnificent 7 stocks that thrived in 2023, even as the e-commerce side of the business saw slower growth.
But this is looking to be a time when both sides of the business begin to click at the same time. AMZN stock is up 20% in 2024, but it’s down about 5.5% in July. That's not a huge dip, but it may be the largest that investors can expect. If the company delivers a bullish print as is widely expected, analysts are currently forecasting a 20% increase in the stock price and that could move higher.
