Amazon Stock Slips 10%: Here's Why It Can Still Finish 2025 With a Market Cap of $3 Trillion
Key Points Amazon stock is dipping because of slowing growth in AI. The company can greatly expand its margins in retail and e-commerce. The stock has a chance to grow to a $3 trillion market cap if 2026 earnings hit a level well within reach. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › Last week, Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) reported its second-quarter earnings. Investors were not enthused. The stock dipped 10% and is now trailing the valuation of its big technology peers, with Nvidia and Microsoft having market caps of around twice the size of Amazon today. Wall Street is concerned about slower growth in cloud computing and Amazon falling behind in artificial intelligence (AI). This pins the stock down on one topic when in reality Amazon has all the ingredients to keep growing its profits over the long term, which is what will drive the share price higher. Here's why Amazon -- with a market cap of $2.3 trillion right now -- can finish 2025 valued at over $3 trillion. More profits arriving in e-commerce The biggest reason for Amazon's profit expansion in its e-commerce division the last few years is advertising. High-margin advertising revenue has grown from $7.4 billion in the second quarter of 2021 to $15.7 billion last quarter, and is still growing 22% year over year. This division has now generated $61 billion in revenue over the last 12 months and has incredibly strong profit margins. Advertising, along with growth in third-party seller services, subscription revenue, and operating leverage over its fixed cost base, has enabled Amazon's North American retail division to expand its profit margin to 7% over the last 12 months. Through the rest of 2025, there is plenty of room for this expansion to keep occurring, which will have a large impact on profitability given how much revenue the division generates ($400 billion over the last 12 months). Even slight profit margin enhancements mean billions of dollars in extra earnings for Amazon. The same thing is happening in international markets, where Amazon has a 3.4% operating margin on $150 billion in revenue. These segments are behind North America but have the same business model at the end of the day, meaning there is even more room for margin expansion over the long haul. Over $500 billion in annual revenue for segments growing revenue in the double digits means Amazon can add tens of billions of dollars in earnings power from North America and international retail in the years to come just by expanding its profit margin slightly each year. Through the rest of 2025, this story will continue to unfold. Sustained cloud computing tailwind A once shining star of Amazon's business, cloud computing division Amazon Web Services (AWS) was the reason for the stock falling after its latest quarterly result. Revenue grew 17.5% for AWS in the quarter, which was well behind competitors Microsoft and Alphabet. Even though AWS is growing slower than its peers, it will still benefit greatly from the AI revolution, especially because of its relationship with Anthropic. The fast-growing AI start-up is seeing booming revenue and is planning to spend a boatload of money at AWS, its key partner. This can drive an acceleration of revenue growth for AWS through the rest of 2025. With over $130 billion in annualized sales, AWS is on a path to hitting close to $150 billion in annual recurring revenue by the end of 2025. Its profit margin is also strong, at 37% over the last 12 months. A strong profit margin and fast revenue growth mean huge earnings gains for AWS, which will lead to consolidated earnings gains for Amazon. The math to a $3 trillion valuation Over the last 12 months, Amazon has generated $76 billion in operating income and $70 billion in net income. Through continued margin expansion in retail and fast growth at AWS, both of these figures can keep chugging higher through the end of 2025. In 2026, it is likely that Amazon's annual earnings will be close to or exceed $100 billion. Today, Amazon trades at a forward price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 33. The S&P 500 index trades at a P/E ratio of close to 30. A forward P/E ratio of 30 and $100 billion in 2026 earnings means that Amazon would trade at a market cap of $3 trillion by the end of this year. That is the math behind Amazon's potential in 2025, and why the stock is set to surge in the next few quarters. Buy Amazon stock and hold on tight for the long term.

Alphabet Sold Its Entire Stake in This Skyrocketing Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock and Bought This $32 Billion Startup Instead
Key Points Alphabet's investment fund managed over $7 billion in assets, with a small portion held in publicly traded stocks. After initially investing in this company's series C in 2015, Alphabet has fully cut its stake in the business. It plans to spend $32 billion to acquire one of its biggest rivals and bolster the fastest-growing segment of Google. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) is one of the biggest spenders on artificial intelligence (AI) in the world. During its second-quarter earnings call, CFO Anat Ashkenazi said that it would spend $85 billion this year on capital expenditures, up from her prior outlook of $75 billion. Two-thirds of that would go toward servers for training and running large language models. But Alphabet is also heavily invested in AI in other areas, including its CapitalG independent growth fund. The fund has $7 billion in assets under management, and it's been an early investor in several major companies (16 of which have made IPOs). As of the end of Q2, the fund held 36 publicly traded stocks, according to its 13F filing with the SEC. That's down from 40 stocks held after the first quarter after fully divesting several holdings. One of those divested holdings is a major AI stock that CapitalG first invested in during its Series C in 2015. Instead, its parent company Alphabet has agreed to acquire a five-year-old start-up in the same space for $32 billion. Taking gains on one of this year's biggest winners Over the last two quarters, CapitalG has sold off its remaining shares of CrowdStrike. At the end of 2023, the fund held 1.3 million shares of the stock, and it accounted for 15% of the fund's marketable equity portfolio's value. But CapitalG started selling off the stock as it rose in value in 2024. That summer, however, CrowdStrike suffered a massive outage, which sent the shares tanking more than 40% from its high. Once shares recovered to their previous high, CapitalG resumed selling. The biggest factor in the investment team's decision to sell the stock appears to be valuation. That said, Alphabet's decision to acquire competing cloud security company Wiz in March may have pushed the team to complete its divestment. CrowdStrike is still recovering from the massive outage it experienced in July of last year. That's weighed heavily on its operating margin. The company has stepped up sales and marketing spend while offering customers discounts for purchasing multiple modules across its security platform. Non-GAAP operating margin fell to 18% in its most recent quarter, down from 23% a year ago. But as CrowdStrike puts last year's outage in the rearview mirror, it's well positioned to expand its margins once again and accelerate earnings growth. Revenue continues to climb rapidly, up 42% year over year. That's bolstered by more customers taking multiple modules, with 48% using at least six of its products. That increases switching costs, and CrowdStrike's robust portfolio of solutions plays into the trend of vendor consolidation. As companies migrate more workloads to the cloud, they're looking for an all-in-one solution that can handle all their security needs, and CrowdStrike is well suited to meet that demand. CrowdStrike is also investing in agentic AI capabilities with its new Charlotte platform. The software can take swift action to curb security threats upon detection. That's built on top of CrowdStrike's machine learning algorithms used to detect security threats in the first place. But even with the strong top-line growth, CrowdStrike shares currently trade for around 27 times sales. That makes it one of the most expensive stocks, by far, in the cybersecurity space. And with Alphabet's planned acquisition of Wiz, CrowdStrike's position in cloud security may be about to get a bit weaker. Building a more competitive cloud service Google currently operates the third-largest public cloud platform, Google Cloud. While it's growing quickly, it still trails its next-closest competitor, Microsoft's Azure, by a wide margin. Its Q2 run rate of $54.5 billion in cloud revenue is well behind Azure's $75 billion in revenue for fiscal 2025. Given that Microsoft's growing its sales faster than any company in the space, Google isn't going to catch up anytime soon. Embedding Wiz's cloud security solutions into Google Cloud can add a new source of revenue for the company and increase its stickiness. That said, overdoing it and losing Wiz's overall neutrality when it comes to cloud platforms could lead some customers to shift to competing services like CrowdStrike. So finding the right balance will be key for Alphabet. Wiz can benefit from Alphabet's ownership as well. It would gain access to more capital for investing in artificial intelligence, which is essential for identifying threats and closing vulnerabilities. Over time, Google Cloud could win share of cloud contracts in industries where security is of premium importance, such as government contracts or banking. While the $32 billion price tag for Wiz is extremely expensive, the potential for Google to grow the business and strengthen its cloud platform makes it worth it, especially since it's sitting on $95 billion of cash and marketable securities. Shares of Alphabet look attractive at a forward price-to-earnings of less than 20. While it suffers from potential regulatory pressure, investors are getting a good value at the current price. If regulators approve the Wiz acquisition, it should bolster the fastest-growing segment of the business, making it an even better deal at this price. Should you invest $1,000 in Alphabet right now?
