  • Amazon Raises Price Target After Strong Q1 Fueled by AWS Growth
    April 29, 2026, 8:42 PM EDT. Amazon shares jumped following a first-quarter performance surpassing expectations, with revenue up 17% year-on-year to $181.52 billion, driven by a 28.4% surge in Amazon Web Services (AWS) revenue. Earnings per share soared 75% to $2.78, boosted by a $16.8 billion non-operating gain linked to its Anthropic investment. Operating income grew 30% to $23.85 billion, reflecting efficiency gains across North America and international operations. AWS's rapid growth, alongside high-margin advertising and robust e-commerce logistics, underpinned optimism. The company raised its price target to $300 from $250, maintaining a buy-equivalent rating. AWS's portfolio of proprietary chips, including Graviton and Tranium, reached a $20 billion annual revenue run rate, underscoring Amazon's scaling infrastructure. The stock gained about 4% in after-hours trade, extending a strong run that saw a 26% rise in April to record highs.
