Why Amazon Stock Is Plummeting Today

Key Points Amazon's shares slipped after Q2 earnings revealed slower-than-hoped-for AWS growth that lagged growth seen by its rivals. New tariffs imposed by President Trump complicate its operations. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › Shares of Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) are falling on Friday, down 8.3% as of 3:28 p.m. ET. The move comes as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite have lost 1.7% and 2.3%, respectively. Amazon released its Q2 financials, which, while beating many of Wall Street's expectations, fell short of lofty targets in a few key areas. News of additional tariffs is also affecting shares. Amazon's cloud business is growing, but not fast enough for some investors Amazon's Q2 earnings report revealed the company beat consensus estimates for both earnings per share and revenue. The company delivered $1.68 per share on $167.70 billion in sales, while $1.33 per share on $162.09 billion was expected. However, investors were paying close attention to growth in the company's data center business, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and how it compares to its competition. The 18% year-over-year growth was much less than that of Microsoft's Azure or Alphabet's Google Cloud, which recorded 39% and 32% growth, respectively. Still, CEO Andy Jassy drove home the point that AWS is still by far the dominant player, saying, "I think the second player is about 65% of the size of AWS." Trump's new tariffs President Trump signed an executive order updating "reciprocal" tariff rates for many countries, with new rates from 10% to 41%, on the August 1st deadline. Markets appear to have thought another extension would be announced, and stocks are down across the board. Because of Amazon's reliance on international trade, its stock was hit particularly hard. Despite the tariff news and the somewhat underwhelming Q2 report, Amazon remains an incredibly profitable company with major growth potential. Should you buy stock in Amazon right now?

Wall Street falls the most since May after employers slash hiring and tariffs roll out

The U.S. stock market had its worst day since May on Friday after the government reported a sharp slowdown in hiring and President Donald Trump imposed sweeping tariffs on imports from a number of U.S. trading partners. The S&P 500 fell 1.6%, its biggest decline since May 21 and its fourth straight loss. The index also posted a 2.4% loss for the week, marking a sharp shift from last week's record-setting streak of gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.2%, while the Nasdaq composite fell 2.2%. Worries on Wall Street about a weakening economy were heavily reinforced by the latest report on job growth in the U.S. Employers added just 73,000 jobs in July. That is sharply lower than economists expected. The Labor Department also reported that revisions shaved a stunning 258,000 jobs off May and June payrolls. Markets also reacted to the latest tariff news. President Donald Trump announced tariff rates on dozens of countries and pushed back the scheduled effective date to Aug. 7, adding more uncertainty to the global trade picture. 'The market has been felled by a one-two punch of additional tariffs, as well as the weaker-than-expected employment data -— not only for this month, but for the downward revisions to the prior months,' said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA. Trump's decision to order the immediate firing of the head of the government agency that produces the monthly jobs figures will only fuel the market's uncertainty, Stovall added. The surprisingly weak hiring numbers led investors to step up their expectations for an interest rate cut in September. The market's odds of a quarter-point cut by the Federal Reserve rose to around 87% from just under 40% a day earlier, according to data from CME FedWatch. The question now: Will the Fed's policymakers consider a half-point cut next month, or even a quarter-point cut sometime before their next committee meeting, Stovall said. The yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 4.21% from 4.39% just before the hiring report was released. That's a big move for the bond market. The yield on the two-year Treasury, which more closely tracks expectations for Fed actions, plunged to 3.68% from 3.94% just prior to the report's release. The Fed has held rates steady since December. A cut in rates would give the job market and overall economy a boost, but it could also risk fueling inflation, which is hovering stubbornly above the central bank's 2% target. An update on Thursday for the Fed's preferred measure of inflation showed that prices ticked higher in June, rising to 2.6% from 2.4% in May. The Fed has remained cautious about cutting interest rates because of worries that tariffs will add more fuel to inflation and weigh down economic growth. The central bank, though, also counts 'maximum employment' as one of its two mandates along with keeping prices stable. Issues with either of those goals could prompt a shift in policy. The Fed held rates steady again at its most recent meeting this week. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has been pressured by Trump to cut the benchmark rate, though that decision isn't his to make alone, but belongs to the 12 members of the Federal Open Market Committee. 'What had looked like a Teflon labor market showed some scratches this morning, as tariffs continue to work their way through the economy,' said Ellen Zentner, chief economic strategist for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. 'A Fed that still appeared hesitant to lower rates may see a clearer path to a September cut, especially if data over the next month confirms the trend.' Businesses, investors and the Fed are all operating under a cloud of uncertainty from Trump's tariff policy. The latest moves give 66 countries, the European Union, Taiwan and the Falkland Islands another seven days, instead of taking effect on Friday, as Trump stated earlier. Companies have been warning investors that the policy, with some tariffs already in effect while others change or get extended, has made it difficult to make forecasts. Walmart, Procter & Gamble and many others have warned about import taxes raising costs, eating into profits and raising prices for consumers. Internet retail giant Amazon fell 8.3%, despite reporting encouraging profit and sales for its most recent quarter. Technology behemoth Apple fell 2.5% after also beating Wall Street's profit and revenue forecasts. Both companies face tougher operating conditions because of tariffs, with Apple forecasting a $1.1 billion hit from the fees in the current quarter. Exxon Mobil fell 1.8% after reporting that profit dropped to the lowest level in four years and sales fell as oil prices slumped as OPEC+ ramped up production. All told, the S&P 500 fell 101.38 points to 6,238.01. The Dow dropped 542.40 points to 43,588.58, and the Nasdaq gave up 472.32 points to finish at 20,650.13. Stocks fell across the world. Germany's DAX fell 2.7% and France's CAC 40 fell 2.9%. South Korea's Kospi tumbled 3.9% Troise and Veiga write for the Associated Press.
