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.

Should I Buy Amazon.com Stock? AMZN Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Tuesday, February 25, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Amazon.com pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Amazon.com
Bull Case

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

Amazon has a strong consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" with a price target of $260.65, indicating positive sentiment among analysts regarding its future performance.
The company reported earnings per share (EPS) of $1.86, surpassing analysts' expectations of $1.52, showcasing its ability to generate profits effectively.
With a current stock price of $212.80, Amazon is positioned well within its 12-month trading range, which has seen a low of $151.61 and a high of $242.52, suggesting potential for growth.
Amazon's market capitalization stands at $2.26 trillion, reflecting its significant presence and stability in the e-commerce sector, which can be attractive for long-term investors.
The company has a return on equity of 24.25%, indicating efficient management in generating profits from shareholders' equity, which is a positive sign for potential investors.

Amazon.com
Bear Case

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

Insider selling has been notable, with CEO Douglas J. Herrington selling 27,500 shares, which may raise concerns about the company's future prospects from those closest to it.
The stock has a relatively high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 38.48, which could indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, making it a riskier investment.
Amazon's quick ratio of 0.87 suggests that the company may have liquidity issues, as it indicates that current liabilities exceed its most liquid assets, which could be a red flag for investors.
Despite a strong market cap, the company has a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.18, which, while not excessively high, indicates that it does carry some debt, potentially impacting financial flexibility.
Recent trading volumes have been high, with 58,833,337 shares traded, which could indicate volatility and uncertainty in the stock's price movements, making it a less stable investment option.
