Ita\u00fa BBA analyst Thiago Alves Kapulskis wrote in a research note after Amazon\u2019s earnings that the competition between Amazon and<br \/>\n        Microsoft<br \/>\n      \u2018s (MSFT) cloud services is a concern. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith so much uncertainty on AMZN and after the significant divergence in Azure vs. AWS, we believe that the market will favor the former, and its parent, rather than the latter,\u201d the analyst wrote. He rates<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Amazon as Outperform with a $124 price target.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft reported strong performance from Azure, its cloud platform, during its quarterly earnings.  <\/p>\n<p>Shares of Amazon were down 0.4% Monday to $105.19 while the<br \/>\n        S&amp;P 500<br \/>\n       declined 0.1%.
