Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) stock analysis
WEAK BUY 18% confidence · analysed Oct 29, 2026
On Oct 29, 2026, our model rated Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) WEAK BUY with 18% confidence at a price of $246.26. That means the signals lean positive, but they are mixed, so conviction is low.
Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 36. Momentum is soft: below the neutral 50 line, but not yet oversold.
MACD is below its signal line, so short-term momentum is pointing down.
The price has slipped below its 50-day moving average but is still above the 200-day: a pullback inside a longer-term uptrend.
Volume is only 0.8x its 20-day average; light trading makes the latest move less convincing.
Trend structure and money flow
Market structure: bullish structure intact, no fresh break.
The most recent swing high is $287.20 and the swing low is $225.55; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
Price is sitting in a bullish order block, a zone where large buyers stepped in before.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 1.47, which looks reasonably priced for its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 17.4% and revenue growth of +19.6%.
In its latest quarter it earned $5.75 per share, which beat the $1.82 analysts expected.
Wall Street's average rating is 1.3 on a 1 (strong buy) to 5 (sell) scale, roughly a "strong buy", with an average price target of $332.41.
The next earnings report is expected around Oct 29, 2026; prices often move sharply around earnings.
Trade plan from the model
The model's long / bullish plan uses an entry near $246.26, a target of $255.58 (+3.8%) and a stop-loss at $232.26 (-5.7%).
That is a reward-to-risk ratio of about 0.7 to 1: the potential loss is bigger than the gain, a weak setup.
The plan has a time limit: reassess by Nov 8, 2026 whatever the price does.
