Is the Dip in Amazon Stock a Buying Opportunity, or Should Investors Run for the Hills?
Key Points Amazon reported strong Q2 results, led by strong growth at AWS and great operational efficiency in its e-commerce business. Investors were disappointed with its outlook, as investments will weigh on its profitability. The stock has historically performed well when Amazon invests heavily. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › While Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) crushed second-quarter earnings expectations, the company's cautious outlook sent shares spiraling lower. The drop sent the shares into negative territory on the year, as of this writing. Let's take a closer look at the e-commerce giant's latest results and guidance to see if this dip is a buying opportunity or if investors should run for the hills. Outlook spooks investors Amazon's cloud computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS), is the company's largest segment by profitability and its fastest-growing. In the quarter, the segment grew its revenue by 17.5% to $30.9 billion, while operating income rose 10% to $10.2 billion. That was above the $30.8 billion revenue consensus, as compiled by StreetAccount, but trailed the growth of Microsoft's Azure and Alphabet's Google cloud. Amazon continues to be the market share leader in the cloud computing space and is investing heavily there. However, like others in the space, it is seeing constraints with demand exceeding capacity. Meanwhile, the company highlighted its custom artificial intelligence (AI) chips as having an edge in price performance. Amazon is leaning into the next wave of AI innovation: AI agents. While interest in AI agents is surging, many companies either lack the tools to build them or struggle to safely deploy them in production. To address that, Amazon introduced Strands -- an open-source framework for building AI agents -- and Agentcore, a secure, serverless environment to run them at scale. It's also rolling out AWS Transform, a specialized AI agent designed to help customers modernize legacy systems like mainframes and accelerate cloud migrations. On the consumer side of its business, Amazon's North America sales jumped 11% to $100.1 billion, while international sales climbed 16%, or 11% in constant currencies, to $36.8 billion. Operating income for its North America segment surged 47% to $7.5 billion, while its international segment posted operating income of $1.5 billion versus $0.3 billion a year ago. Advertising services continue to be a growth driver, as revenue soared 23% to $15.7 billion, driven by its sponsored ad business. That was ahead of the $14.9 billion analyst consensus, as compiled by StreetAccount. Third-party seller services revenue rose by 11% to $40.3 billion, while online store revenue climbed by 11% to $61.5 billion. Physical stores, such as Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh, saw sales grow by 7% to $5.6 billion. Subscription services revenue, meanwhile, jumped 12% to $12.2 billion. Overall, Amazon's revenue climbed by 13% to $167.7 billion, which came in well above the $162.1 billion analyst consensus, as compiled by London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG). Adjusted earnings per share climbed 33% to $1.68, which was also well ahead of analyst expectations of $1.33. Looking ahead, Amazon forecast Q3 revenue to be between $174 billion and $179.5 billion, representing 10% to 13% growth. Meanwhile, it guided for operating income to be between $15.5 billion to $20.5 billion compared to $17.4 billion a year ago. Analysts were looking for operating income of $19.5 billion (StreetAccount) on revenue of $173.1 billion (LSEG). Should investors buy the dip? Amazon has been nicely growing its revenue, led by AWS and its sponsored ad business. However, a just as important -- if not more important -- part of the story has been the operational efficiency it has seen in its e-commerce business. That showed up in Q2 via its e-commerce operating income, but investors were disappointed with its operating income guidance. The company is investing heavily in AI infrastructure for AWS, which is leading to some higher depreciation costs. At the end of the day, this investment is needed and will benefit the company, although it will weigh on profitability in the near term. Turning to valuation, the stock trades at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of about 34 times 2025 analyst estimates and 29 times 2026 estimates. That's a historically attractive valuation for the stock, and Amazon has often performed well when it invests heavily. As such, I'd use this pullback as a buying opportunity.

Prediction: This Quantum Computing Stock Will Be Worth More Than Berkshire Hathaway, Palantir, and Tesla Combined by 2030
Key Points Google parent Alphabet is already nearly worth more than Berkshire, Palantir, and Tesla combined. If a few key assumptions hold up, the stock should be larger than these three companies within the near future. Quantum computing probably won't be Alphabet's biggest growth driver, though. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › What do Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B), Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR), and Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) have in common? Not much. However, they're all large-cap companies that have achieved significant success in recent years. There's one common denominator we can definitely cross of the list: None of these three companies has quantum computing developments underway. But another tech giant does. And I predict it will be worth more than Berkshire, Palantir, and Tesla combined by 2030. A potential quantum computing monster The potential quantum computing monster I have in mind is Google parent Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL). My prediction doesn't require stepping out on a limb too much. Alphabet's market cap currently hovers around $2.3 trillion. That's only a little below the $2.4 trillion combined market caps of Berkshire Hathaway ($1.04 trillion), Palantir ($374 billion), and Tesla ($966 million). All Alphabet needs to do is grow a little faster than these three stocks over the next five years. I think that's doable. However, a few things have to happen for my prediction to pan out that have nothing to do with Alphabet. All bets are off if Berkshire Hathaway pulls off a massive acquisition under Warren Buffett's successor, Greg Abel, that turbocharges the company's growth. My hunch, though, is that Abel won't attempt anything fraught with such risk in his first few years as CEO. I'm assuming that Palantir's valuation catches up with it or that its growth doesn't catch up with its valuation. With the stock trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of nearly 278 and growth that doesn't come close to justifying this premium, I suspect I'm on pretty safe ground. With Tesla, I'm anticipating intense competition in the electric vehicle market from BYD and others. I'm banking on Cathie Wood and her Ark Invest team being wrong about projections that Tesla's market cap will skyrocket as the robotaxi market takes off. I'm also counting on it taking more than five years for Tesla to have a major commercial hit with its Optimus humanoid robots. Quantum computing and more Of course, Alphabet must deliver strong growth even if my assumptions about Berkshire, Palantir, and Tesla hold up. I'm optimistic that it will. By the way, my prediction doesn't hinge on the company having a major quantum computing breakthrough. That is a distinct possibility, though. Google Quantum AI has already achieved two of the six milestones on its quantum computing roadmap. It believes that building a useful quantum computer is feasible within this decade, too. What I am counting on is continued impressive growth from Google Cloud. The unit's revenue soared 32% year over year in the second quarter of 2025, the fastest growth rate among the big three cloud service providers. With a massive artificial intelligence (AI) tailwind at its back, I think sustained momentum for Google Cloud should be a pretty safe bet. I also look for Google Search, YouTube, and Alphabet's other advertising moneymakers to remain dominant in their markets. Some have warned of an existential threat to Google Search from generative AI. All I've seen so far is Google's generative AI initiatives helping secure its position in the search engine market. While I assume that the robotaxi market won't be big enough to give Tesla a market cap of nearly $10 trillion by 2030, I do think it could provide a nice boost to Alphabet's Waymo unit. The self-driving car business is likely to become an increasingly important growth driver for Alphabet. The elephant in the article Admittedly, there is a potential fly in the ointment with my prediction. It's also the elephant in the room (or, in this case, the article). Could the antitrust actions against Google threaten Alphabet's growth? Probably the best answer to this question is... maybe. However, I don't think it will happen before 2030. Google is appealing the two federal court rulings that went against it. The legal process could drag out for years. I wouldn't bet against the company prevailing. Even if it doesn't, my hunch is that most of the factors that currently make the stock attractive would remain intact. We'll know in five years if my prediction comes true. In the meantime, I view Alphabet as the best quantum computing stock (and one of the best AI stocks) on the market. Should you invest $1,000 in Alphabet right now? Before you buy stock in Alphabet, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Alphabet wasn't one of them.
