Amazon.com - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Amazon:

  • Amazon's stock price recently reached $212.32, showing resilience in the market and potential for growth.
  • Analysts have a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" for Amazon, with an average price target of $260.65, indicating strong future growth expectations.
  • The company has a diverse revenue stream, operating in retail, advertising, and cloud services (AWS), which helps mitigate risks associated with market fluctuations.

Amazon.com
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Amazon for these reasons:

  • Insider sales, including a 4.70% decrease in ownership by a director, may raise concerns about the company's short-term outlook.
  • The company's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 38.39 indicates that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, which could deter value-focused investors.
  • Amazon's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.18, while relatively low, suggests that the company is not heavily leveraged, which could limit its ability to take on new projects or investments.
  • Recent fluctuations in stock price and trading volume may indicate volatility, which can be a risk for investors looking for stable returns.
  • With corporate insiders owning only 10.80% of the stock, there may be less alignment between management and shareholder interests, potentially impacting decision-making.
