BofA Maintains Buy on Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) Stock

On March 4, Bank of America Securities analyst Justin Post maintained a “Buy” rating on Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)’s stock, setting a price objective of $275.00. The analyst’s rating is supported by the factors related to the ramp-up of AI-led growth at AWS as well as the improvement in capital returns.

Post noted Anthropic’s massive revenue ramp and increased usage of Claude models. This suggests that there is healthy, broad-based enterprise demand for advanced AI services, which are dependent on the hyperscale cloud infrastructure.

If a significant part of Anthropic’s expanding workloads and model-training spend goes via AWS, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN)’s cloud revenue can witness a strong increase on a quarterly basis.

On the related note, the analyst also noted the company’s plans to enhance AWS power capacity. The incremental capex is expected to fetch attractive returns amidst scaling of AI demand, added Post.

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) operates across e-commerce, digital content, advertising, and cloud computing. Amazon Business could support companies in streamlining procurement automation with tools, which can help efficient purchasing, improved spend management, etc.
