Should You Buy Amazon Stock Before July 31?
Amazon is caught in a tug-of-war between the growing demand for AI and macro and geopolitical factors. The accelerating adoption of AI and growth from the company's cloud and advertising businesses may be enough to offset weakness resulting from higher tariffs. Despite these challenges, Amazon has a long track record of growth and is selling at a discount to its historic valuation. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › Second-quarter earnings season is about to hit the ground running, and to say investors will be sitting on the edge of their seats may be an understatement. One company that's caught in the underlying economic tug-of-war is Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN). On the one hand, many of the products on the digital retailer's platform are sourced from around the world, so it's particularly vulnerable to the Trump administration's tariff agenda. On the other hand, the company's digital advertising business and its cloud segment -- Amazon Web Services (AWS) -- stand to gain from accelerating adoption of AI, which could be a significant catalyst for growth. The company faces a key hurdle when Amazon reports its second-quarter results, which are expected to be released on July 31. Given the competing economic forces at play, should investors buy Amazon stock ahead of this key financial report or wait until the results have been made public? Let's take a look to see what the evidence suggests. One of the biggest unknowns in the upcoming quarter is the impact of tariffs. Third-party merchants account for roughly 62% of unit sales, and many of those sellers source their goods from China. The U.S. announced a trade deal with China last month that set tariffs on Chinese goods at a minimum of 30%, though the levies on some products are higher. While this is down from the peak of 145%, the timing of the deal in early June suggests Amazon's second-quarter sales and profits will likely take a hit. However, the company expanded its Prime Day sale to four days, double the length of its member-only sale last year, which could boost sales. Unfortunately, the event began after the close of the second quarter, so the impact on any additional sales won't hit the financials until Q3. Results from the first quarter came in before the imposition of tariffs, and investors liked what they saw. Overall net sales increased 9% year over year to $155.7 billion, with 60% of its revenue coming from digital sales or third-party seller services. Investors will be watching closely to gauge the impact of tariffs on Amazon's biggest business. The news isn't all bad, as the breadth of Amazon's business will insulate the company somewhat from the trade war, starting with its cloud segment. AWS is the undisputed leader in cloud infrastructure services, controlling 32% of the market in the first quarter and growing 17% year over year, according to market analyst Canalys. It's also Amazon's biggest moneymaker, generating 19% of revenue and 63% of operating income. Growth has reignited over the past year or so, fueled by demand for AI. Last month, CEO Andy Jassy noted that Amazon had more than 1,000 generative AI services and applications in progress or built, with plans to develop many more, saying, "AI will be a substantial catalyst." This, in turn, could drive higher demand for AWS. Let's not forget Amazon's advertising, which has quickly become the company's fastest-growing business. Ad revenue grew 18% year over year in Q2, fueled by Amazon Prime and the company's live sports programming. Recent reports suggest marketers are moving millions in ad spending to Amazon's platform, according to advertising industry publication Adweek. Amazon's advertising business began as a way for the company to capitalize on the valuable digital real estate on its e-commerce platform, but has since expanded significantly. Earlier this year, advertising on Prime Video became standard, with users required to pay a $3 monthly fee to forego the ads. The company also gets ad revenue from Freevee, its other ad-supported streaming channel, and from Twitch, its live-streaming gaming platform. Amazon sought to expand its advantage, inking a groundbreaking deal with Roku to give advertisers "access to the largest authenticated CTV [connected TV] footprint in the U.S.," available exclusively through the Amazon Demand-Side Platform (DSP), which connects ad buyers with available advertising. Roku and Amazon reach combined reaches an estimated 80 million CTV households, which represents more than 80% of CTV households in the country, according to the press release. This could be a significant catalyst for ad growth going forward. I generally don't recommend making buying decisions based on arbitrary days on a calendar, but rather the totality of the circumstances and the opportunities that could fuel revenue and profit growth. Each of Amazon's major business segments is growing at a respectable clip, and the proliferation of AI could act as an ongoing catalyst. Wall Street is nearly unanimous in its bullish view of Amazon. Of the 70 analysts who have offered an opinion in July, 66 -- a whopping 94% -- rate the stock a buy or strong buy, and none recommend selling. Furthermore, the average price target of $242 suggests there's additional upside of 8% compared to Friday's closing price. However, just this week, analysts at Morgan Stanley lifted their price target on Amazon to $300, which represents 33% potential upside for investors. The analysts called Amazon a "top pick" and cited more manageable tariffs, cloud growth, and strength across its AI offerings as fueling the firm's bullish call. Amazon is the undisputed leader in e-commerce and cloud infrastructure services and a key player in digital advertising. Add to that the company's portfolio of AI offerings, and it's easy to see why Wall Street is so bullish on Amazon's future. On a final note, Amazon is currently selling for roughly 37 times trailing-12-month earnings. While that's a premium, it's well below the stock's three-year average multiple of 83, so from a historical standpoint, it's a bargain. I'd suggest that's a reasonable price to pay for a stock that gained 95% over the past three years, far exceeding the 61% gains of the S&P 500. For those reasons and more, Amazon stock is a buy.

These Growth Stocks Soared 150% or More in the Last 5 Years and Are Still Great Buys
Meta Platforms is hiring top AI talent for its "superintelligence" team. Netflix's improving profit margin could double the stock price by 2030. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Winners tend to keep on winning in the stock market. The most widely used platforms and services create a windfall of profits for the companies that own them, which can create a self-reinforcing cycle of investment and more growth. This is certainly true for Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) and Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX). These growth stocks have more than doubled since 2020. Here's why they are still excellent investments. Meta Platforms has benefited from a growing social media advertising market. Strong financial results have pushed the stock up 200% since 2020. But the company is making significant investments in artificial intelligence (AI) that could lead to more amazing returns for investors. The company has rolled out the Meta AI personal assistant on all its social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. It is powered by the company's Llama AI model, and it's becoming one of the most used personal assistants, with around 1 billion monthly active users. Meta is investing around $70 billion annually in technology, and it can afford it. The company generated $66 billion in net income on $170 billion of revenue over the last year. It has the money to buy graphics processing units (GPUs) for AI research, and now it's making a play to bring in the best talent. In just the last few months, management has reportedly hired top executives from OpenAI, Alphabet's Google, Anthropic, and Apple. This talent will form Meta Superintelligence Labs, which will work on Llama and other AI projects and products. CEO Mark Zuckerberg sees a future where AI personal agents are seamlessly integrated into wearables, including glasses (its Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses have already tripled sales over the past year). Wearables, including watches, could become the new iPhone in the next decade, and Meta Platforms is positioning itself to benefit. It has the money, talent, and more than 3.4 billion people using its services every day, yet the stock trades at a reasonable 28 times this year's earnings and 25 times 2026 estimates. This "Magnificent Seven" company is likely worth a lot more than that, and that could spell magnificent returns for investors who buy shares and patiently hold for a decade or more. Shares of Netflix have had an incredible run the past few years. Even if you had bought shares in 2020 and held through the market sell-off in 2022, you would be up 155%. And even at the current $1,276 share price, it's not too late to start an investment in the streaming leader. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that Netflix's internal goal was to double revenue and triple operating income by 2030. In response to an analyst's question about that report on the first-quarter earnings call, management said this doesn't reflect official guidance from the company, but it does see substantial opportunities ahead. Netflix has more than 300 million paid households and more than 700 million viewers. It has a huge audience already, but the streamer's share of TV viewing hours is less than 10%. As co-CEO Greg Peters said, "We still have hundreds of millions of folks to sign up." Analysts expect revenue to grow at a compound annual rate of 11% through 2030, which seems reasonable -- and even lower than the figures reported by the Wall Street Journal. This would bring revenue to $65 billion, up from 2024's $39 billion. However, Netflix is also improving margins, which is fueling robust earnings growth. Earnings jumped 25% year over year in the first quarter, but analysts expect earnings per share to grow at an annualized rate of 20% through 2029 to reach $49.59, up from $19.83 in 2024. Netflix stock currently trades at 50 times this year's earnings estimate. That's expensive, but it has historically traded at a high price-to-earnings multiple, given its recurring revenue from subscriptions. The stock should continue to follow earnings growth, which could double the share price by 2030. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $427,709!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $40,087!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $671,477!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join , and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.*Stock Advisor returns as of July 7, 2025 Suzanne Frey, an executive at Alphabet, is a member of The Motley Fool's board of directors.

AMZN vs. TSLA vs. META: Which Magnificent 7 Stock Is Wall Street's Best Buy Right Now?
The year-to-date movement in the Magnificent 7 stocks has been mixed so far amid tariff woes, macro uncertainty, and artificial intelligence (AI) boom. These Magnificent 7 stocks: Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA), and Tesla (TSLA), are prominent tech companies that are known for their market dominance, innovation, and influence on the Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 (SPX) indices. Using TipRanks' Stock Comparison Tool, we placed Amazon, Tesla, and Meta Platforms against each other to find the best Magnificent 7 stock among these three, according to Wall Street analysts. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Make smarter investment decisions with TipRanks' Smart Investor Picks, delivered to your inbox every week. It is worth noting that chip giant Nvidia, which is the best-performing Magnificent 7 stock on a year-to-date basis (up nearly 23%), recently became the first company to hit the $4 trillion mark in market capitalization. Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) Stock E-commerce and cloud computing giant Amazon is proving the resilience of its business model despite macro challenges and tariff woes. Several analysts are bullish about the company's higher-margin Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing unit and expect it to gain from AI-related tailwinds. In Q1 2025, the AWS division contributed 19% of its revenue but a remarkable 63% of the overall operating profits. Moreover, Amazon's rapidly growing advertising business is seen as a major growth driver. Looking ahead, Wall Street expects Amazon to report a 4% year-over-year growth in its second-quarter earnings per share (EPS) of $1.31 and a 9.4% rise in revenue to about $162 billion. Is AMZN a Buy, Sell, or Hold? Recently, Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Nowak increased the price target for Amazon stock to $300 from $250 and reiterated a Buy rating. After recently cutting estimates, Nowak increased his 2026 and 2027 estimates by 9% and 6%, to $8 and $9, respectively, to reflect lower and manageable tariffs and a more constructive macro backdrop. The 5-star analyst stated that the CIO survey bolstered his expectation of acceleration in AWS revenue. With 45 Buys and one Hold, Amazon stock scores a Strong Buy consensus rating on TipRanks. The average AMZN stock price target of $248.98 indicates 11% upside potential. AMZN stock has risen 2.6% year-to-date. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) Stock Tesla stock is down 22.4% year-to-date and is currently the worst-performing Magnificent 7 stock. Weak sales amid intense competition in the electric vehicle (EV) space, macro challenges, margin pressures, and CEO Elon Musk's political ambitions have dragged down TSLA stock. Notably, Musk's formation of a new political party following a fallout with U.S. President Donald Trump has shaken investors' confidence, raising concerns about the future of the EV company. The news of Musk forming the America Party reversed the improvement in investor sentiment in reaction to his stepping down from the leading role at DOGE and the recent launch of robotaxis in Austin, Texas. Moreover, the end of the federal tax credit of $7,500 for the purchase of new EVs is also expected to hit Tesla's sales in the times ahead. Is Tesla Stock a Buy? Recently, Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney lowered his price target for Tesla stock to $285 from $315 and reaffirmed a Hold rating as part of a broader research note on U.S. Autos and Industrial Tech industry. The 5-star analyst increased his U.S. auto forecast to reflect more 'measured' tariff levels than what had been initially proposed. That said, he continues to expect moderation in U.S. auto sales in the second half of 2025 after pre-buying ahead of tariffs and a potential rise in prices due to tariffs. Specifically, Goldman Sachs estimates U.S. auto sales at 15.75 million and 15.50 million units in 2025 and 2026, respectively, compared to its prior forecast of 15.40 million and 15.25 million. Overall, Wall Street has a Hold consensus rating on Tesla stock based on 14 Buys, 13 Holds, and nine Sell recommendations. The average TSLA stock price target of $295.80 indicates about 6% of possible downside from current levels. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) Stock Meta Platforms' first-quarter results proved the social media giant's ability to navigate a challenging environment and deliver strong performance. The company is aggressively investing in data center infrastructure to support its AI ambitions. Meta recently announced $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI to secure high-quality training data for AI models, reinforcing its focus on this lucrative growth opportunity. Meta Platforms is scheduled to announce its second-quarter results after the market closes on July 30. Wall Street expects META to report EPS of $5.84 for Q2 2025, reflecting a 13% year-over-year growth. Analysts expect revenue to rise 14.2% year-over-year to $44.6 billion. Is META a Good Stock to Buy? Recently, Piper Sandler analyst Thomas Champion reiterated a Buy rating on Meta Platforms stock with a price target of $808. The 4-star analyst called META stock Piper Sandler's top large-cap internet pick, noting improving digital ad trends and investor sentiment heading into second-quarter results. Champion raised his estimates for META and highlighted strong trends indicated by checks and the company's significant AI investments. The analyst expects beat-and-raise second-quarter results, given that digital ad spend grew 6.6% year-over-year, marking a notable acceleration from Q1 2025. Further, Champion highlighted positives like Meta's new WhatsApp ad units, Reels product, and strength in new verticals such as travel and consumer packaged goods (CPG). CEO Mark Zuckerberg's hiring strategy and the company's AI roadmap also support Champion's bullish stance. Including Champion, 42 analysts have a Buy rating on Meta Platforms stock while four have a Hold recommendation, bringing the consensus rating to a Strong Buy. The average META stock price target of $736.67 indicates a modest 2.7% upside potential. META stock has rallied 22.5% year-to-date. Conclusion Wall Street is sidelined on Tesla stock, but is bullish on Meta Platforms and Amazon stocks. They currently see higher upside in Amazon stock than in the other two Magnificent 7 stocks discussed here. Wall Street's bullish stance on Amazon stock is backed by its dominance in e-commerce and cloud computing, AI-related tailwinds, and growing advertising business.
