Revisions (92): Analysts have, on balance, been raising their forecasts.

Accruals (22): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (0): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

The Ticker Nerd Read

Our middling rank hides a strong estimate-revision signal.

As of 15 September 2026, our factor model ranks Amazon at 48.2 of 100 across the US stocks it tracks, near the middle of the field. The strongest factor families are Estimate Revisions at 92.5, Quality at 82.3 and Growth at 80.7. Value at 27.9, Investment/Accruals at 22.2 and Debt/Equity Issuance at 25.6 pull the rank down.

The Street's targets sit far above our middling rank. Analysts' average price target is $328.17 against a last close of $248.42 on 15 September 2026. Of the 62 analysts covering Amazon, 60 rate it Buy or Strong Buy and none rate it Sell.

As of 10 September 2026, the consensus current-year earnings estimate had risen 45% over 90 days to $12.57, with 48 analysts raising forecasts in the last month against one cut. What would change the picture is Amazon's capital spending. Capital expenditure was $43.2 billion in the quarter ended 31 March 2026 and free cash flow was negative there, the pattern behind the weak Value and accruals readings.

Latest AMZN news & analysis

Amazon-owned Zoox's 100-robotaxi limit in Nevada is about to disappear

TechCrunch · 17 Sept 2026positive

A Nevada regulatory cap limiting Amazon-owned Zoox to 100 robotaxis is set to expire this month, allowing the company to expand its commercial fleet in Las Vegas. The move comes as competition in the autonomous vehicle space intensifies.

Why it matters — For AMZN watchers, this signals the potential removal of a hurdle to scaling Zoox's robotaxi operations, a key part of Amazon's autonomous driving ambitions, just as competitive pressure in the sector grows.

Amazon Is Spending $6.8 Billion to Manufacture Walmart's Geography Advantage

PYMNTS · 17 Sept 2026neutral

Amazon is spending $6.8 billion in an effort to replicate Walmart's geography advantage in delivery. The article notes that Amazon may need more than faster warehouses and could build its own neighborhood store network to close Walmart's delivery lead.

Amazon's secret weapon against Walmart could be a massive blitz in same-day delivery

Market Watch · 17 Sept 2026positive

The 61 Wall Street analysts covering Amazon.com, Inc. have a median 12-month price target of $326, with estimates ranging from $230 to $405. These are third-party analyst estimates, not Ticker Nerd forecasts, and they are frequently wrong.

Is AMZN stock a buy right now?

Of the 61 analysts covering Amazon.com, Inc., 59 rate it a Buy, 2 a Hold and 0 a Sell. Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model ranks Amazon.com, Inc. 48 out of 100 across roughly 4,600 US stocks as at 17 Sept 2026. None of this is personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances.

How does Ticker Nerd's model rank AMZN?

As at 17 Sept 2026, Amazon.com, Inc. ranks 48 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Revisions (92 of 100).

Will AMZN stock go up?

No one can know that. What the data says: the median 12-month target from 61 analysts implies +29.6% from the last close, and Ticker Nerd's factor model ranks Amazon.com, Inc. 48 out of 100 as at 17 Sept 2026. Analyst targets are third-party estimates and frequently wrong; none of this is personal advice.

What is the AMZN stock forecast for 2030?

No analyst covering Amazon.com, Inc. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for AMZN are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $230 to $405 over the next 12 months.

How has AMZN stock performed over the past year?

Amazon.com, Inc. returned +8.4% over the 12 months to 17 Sept 2026, with dividends reinvested. Past performance does not indicate future returns.

What does Amazon.com, Inc. do?

Amazon.com operates online and physical retail, a marketplace for third-party sellers, advertising, subscription services and a line of consumer devices. Its AWS unit sells cloud computing, storage, data and machine-learning services to businesses and developers.

What is the latest news on AMZN?

The most recent item we track (TechCrunch, 17 Sept 2026): "Amazon-owned Zoox's 100-robotaxi limit in Nevada is about to disappear". A Nevada regulatory cap limiting Amazon-owned Zoox to 100 robotaxis is set to expire this month, allowing the company to expand its commercial fleet in Las Vegas. The move comes as competition in the autonomous vehicle space intensifies.

Why does the model's Investment/Accruals reading lag when Amazon's margins are so strong?

The factor rewards profit that has already shown up as cash and penalises rapid expansion of the asset base. In the quarter ended 31 March 2026, free cash flow was negative $18.2 billion while capital expenditure was $43.2 billion. Reported profit is strong, but this forensic reading wants more of it arriving as cash.
