If the stock closes at these levels, it will be the best seven-day stretch since August 2022, according to Dow Jones Market Data.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n<p>Shares of the e-commerce and cloud firm have been rising since the day after the company reported strong third-quarter earnings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAMZN reported a solid quarter led by strong margin improvement in both NA [North American] retail, International retail and AWS segments, with acceleration in ad revenue and 4Q guide ahead of expectations,\u201d UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley wrote in a research note Monday. <\/p>\n<p>Walmsley raised his price target on Amazon stock to $180 from $178, and maintained his Buy rating.<\/p>\n<p>Amazon posted third-quarter earnings and revenue that beat Wall Street expectations on Oct. 27, but investors have been focused on Amazon Web Services results. On the company\u2019s earnings call, Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said that customers\u2019 efforts to cut back on costs continues to be a headwind for<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>AWS. However, Amazon says sales growth is picking up again.<\/p>\n<p>There are also concerns about holiday shopping. Olsavsky said on the call that customers remain cautious about prices, trading down where they can, and spending less on discretionary items. Amazon also guided for fourth-quarter revenue of $160 billion to $167 billion, which was below analyst\u2019s estimates of $167.2 billion, according to FactSet.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, Wall Street is still betting on Amazon. Of the 58 analysts surveyed by FactSet, 56 rate the stock at Buy, and two say it\u2019s a Hold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith AWS reacceleration firmly on the horizon, North American operating income delivering ahead of expectations, the International business nearly back to break-even, and revenue continuing to grow at a steady double-digit clip,\u00a0Amazon\u00a0remains one of the best earnings-growth stories in the market heading into 2024,\u201d wrote Deutsche Bank analyst Lee Horowitz after the company reported earnings. He rates Amazon stock at Buy with a $175 price target. <\/p>\n<p>Write to Angela Palumbo at angela.palumbo@dowjones.com<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/articles\/amazon-stock-aws-holiday-sales-9fd0b157?mod=investing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazon.com stock was rising again on Monday, as the stock heads for its best seven-day winning streak of the year.
