Amazon has not reported the quarter yet. AWS and ad sales are growing, but much higher planned spending and a seasonal sales comparison leave no clear change to its outlook.

The AI's read

AWS and advertising have both grown, giving Amazon strong areas to watch. But Amazon plans much higher spending, and Prime Day timing may slow reported sales growth. Last quarter's profit per share included a $53.4 billion gain tied to its Anthropic stake, making it a poor guide to usual results. With the next report still ahead, these facts do not point clearly in one direction.
