  • Tech Sell-Off Deepens on Cloud Growth Fears, Amazon to Report AWS Earnings
    February 6, 2026, 5:57 AM EST. The stock market saw a continuing sell-off in major indices including the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq, driven by renewed concerns in the technology sector. Fears grew following Microsoft's sharp stock drop last week amid signs of a slowdown in Azure, its cloud computing service. Investors are now closely watching Amazon's upcoming earnings for its cloud unit, Amazon Web Services (AWS), a key revenue driver. Despite Amazon's shares rising nearly 10% in October after strong AWS revenue, anxiety persists over whether Microsoft's troubles signal a broader cloud growth slowdown.
