  • Amazon poised for a 2026 rebound as AWS margins and ad growth support a revival
    January 17, 2026, 11:57 AM EST. Amazon's 2025 performance lagged the Magnificent Seven, but investors see a rebound in 2026. After a year when the S&P 500 rose roughly 16%, Nasdaq up over 20%, and the Dow near 13%, Amazon gained about 5% in 2025-the weakest among the group. The company has used robotics and automation to shave costs and lift efficiency; Morgan Stanley projects nearly 40 fulfillment centers with robots, potentially saving up to $4 billion. The focus shifts beyond e-commerce to AWS, which accounted for about 18% of revenue but more than 65% of operating income in Q3. Advertising remains the fastest-growing, high-margin segment, up 24% year over year, ahead of AWS (20%), third-party seller services (12%), and other lines. In short, a 2026 revival case hinges on margins, ad growth, and AWS profitability.
