Amazon gains $80 billion as AWS GPU prices top Prime Day sales

Amazon.com, Inc. heads into Tuesday’s New York pre-market with shares gaining about $80 billion in equity value on Monday. This comes as its Prime Day sales event generated $26.4 billion in U.S. online retail spend. Nasdaq’s regular session was still closed at press time. Pre-market runs 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. ET, with regular trading 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET. There’s no June 30 closure on Nasdaq’s 2026 holiday list.

Amazon.com stock ended Thursday at $244.39, gaining 2.9% before markets shut down for Juneteenth and the weekend. As Prime Day week kicks off, investors are eyeing two things: Amazon’s retail momentum and the company’s push to make AI costs pay off in its chip business. Amazon’s Prime Day kicks off Tuesday, June 23, and continues through Friday, June 26. The sale, which covers electronics, fashion, beauty, home, groceries, and more, will feature millions of deals for Prime members, Amazon said.

Amazon Shares Slip After $17.5 Billion AI Loan Draws Focus to AMZN Cash Flow

Amazon Shares Slip After $17.5 Billion AI Loan, Cash Flow Pressure Before Prime Day

Amazon.com, Inc. shares fell Friday, last trading at $237.66, off $3.85, or 1.6%. The stock moved between $233.70 and $245.20 during the session, with volume topping 20 million. The drop was notable since both the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ Trust traded up, putting more attention on Amazon-specific issues than broader market moves. Stocks are usually up when investors see better earnings or less risk ahead, and head lower when there are doubts about cash flow, margins or price. Amazon’s latest balance-sheet move has investors watching closely. The company lined up a $17.5 billion loan, Reuters reported, with backing from Citibank, BofA Securities, JPMorgan Chase, HSBC and Wells Fargo. The new facility is structured as a delayed-draw term loan, letting Amazon tap the money as it needs it during its spending push on artificial intelligence infrastructure. Amazon told Reuters it would use the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

Amazon Shares Slip After $17.5 Billion AI Loan Draws Focus to AMZN Cash Flow

The “delayed draw” structure lets Amazon take the funds at a future date instead of upfront. The lending commitments are set to expire on September 30, 2026, unless the whole amount is borrowed sooner.

Amazon’s next stock driver is live now, Bank of America says

Bank of America is sticking with its Buy on Amazon.com and a $310 target, saying the company’s Leo satellite network is close to first revenue. The bank says this could give investors a new way to look at Amazon beyond its retail, ads, and cloud business. Analyst Justin Post said Amazon has picked up its launch pace—three launches just in the second quarter, and over 300 satellites up by mid-May. Amazon’s Leo project is now more than a long-term plan. The company said a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket launched 29 more Leo satellites on May 29. That takes the total number of deployed satellites to 331 from 12 missions.

Ohsung Kwon, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo, described a “euphoric sentiment in the market around AI,” adding that earnings were the big push for the move.
Amazon Leans Into AI With Hiring Focus Jeff Bezos Made Famous

Amazon Leans Into AI With Hiring Focus Jeff Bezos Made Famous

Jeff Bezos’ “life is too short to hang out with people who aren’t resourceful” line is back in the spotlight this week, showing up in tech and business coverage as Amazon moves deeper into AI, cloud and speedier delivery. Amazon is asking investors and staff to back pricey, risky bets at a key time. CEO Andy Jassy said Amazon Web Services’ AI services now have an annualized revenue run-rate topping $15 billion, meaning sales from now would add up to that over a year. Amazon’s capital spending plan for 2026, mostly for AI infrastructure, is around $200 billion. “We’re not investing ... on a hunch,” Jassy said. Brian Mulberry, chief market strategist at Zacks Investment Management, said the AI run-rate “a strong validation” of AWS’s spot.
Amazon shares fall as $200 billion AI question lingers

Amazon shares fall as $200 billion AI question lingers

Amazon.com shares dropped around 2.3% to $258.73 Tuesday afternoon, a steeper slide than the wider indexes as traders pulled back from big tech before Nvidia’s numbers. The stock’s market cap came in near $2.81 trillion. That keeps the $3 trillion mark in sight, but it’s no longer clear the move is automatic. That’s the key issue for Amazon right now. The stock isn’t just about online retail anymore. Investors are betting that Amazon Web Services can make AI investments pay off with steady revenue before the spending pushes them away.
Amazon Stock Slips As Alexa’s AI Shopping Push Moves From Search To Checkout

Amazon Stock Slips As Alexa’s AI Shopping Push Moves From Search To Checkout

Amazon.com Inc is dialing up Alexa’s role at checkout, recasting its retail search bar as an AI-powered shopping assistant that compares products, monitors prices, and can complete purchases after shoppers lay out their preferences. Alexa for Shopping is now live for U.S. users via the Amazon Shopping app, Amazon.com, and Echo Show devices, the company said. This shift lands at a crucial moment: online retail is pivoting from basic typed searches toward agentic AI — tools that actually do things for users, not just spit out answers. For Amazon, it’s an opportunity to lock shoppers into its marketplace, hardware, and logistics ecosystem, just as competitors are scrambling for slices of the same shopping flow.
FedEx Stock Faces a New Amazon Threat as Logistics Fight Hits Shares

FedEx Stock Faces a New Amazon Threat as Logistics Fight Hits Shares

FedEx Corp. shares held their ground on Tuesday morning, as Amazon.com rolled out access to its supply-chain network for external businesses. The initiative ramps up Amazon’s competition with both FedEx and United Parcel Service across freight, fulfillment, and parcel shipping. FedEx faces more than fresh competition on the delivery path. Amazon is transforming its logistics network—originally tailored for its own retail ops—into a broader offering for retailers, manufacturers, and healthcare firms. Shippers now have another channel for moving goods from raw inputs all the way to the end customer.
