Amazon stock: What to watch as analysts raise targets on Rufus AI and AWS

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 06:02 (EST) — Premarket Amazon.com shares edged higher in premarket trading on Monday as two analyst notes pointed to upside from the company’s AI-powered shopping assistant and cloud growth.

Microsoft stock slides on Brazil antitrust probe into cloud licensing — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 09:33 ET — Market closed Microsoft (MSFT.O) shares ended down 2.21% on Friday after Brazil’s antitrust watchdog opened a probe into the company’s corporate software and cloud computing practices.
