Jim Cramer Just Couldn’t Stop Praising Amazon.com (AMZN)

We recently published Jim Cramer Said Sandisk Stock Performance is Befuddling & Discussed These 17 Stocks. Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the stocks discussed by Jim Cramer.

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)’s shares caught investment bank Goldman Sachs’ attention on April 30th when it raised the share price target to $325 from $275 and kept a Buy rating on the stock. The coverage came after the firm had reported its first-quarter earnings. The results saw Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) beat analyst revenue and earnings estimates and post a $364 billion AWS cloud computing backlog. Raymond James raised the share price target to $280 from $225 and kept an Outperform rating on the shares on May 1st. The financial firm remarked that Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) would benefit from its AI initiatives in the long term. Cramer discussed the firm announcing its supply chain service:

“Yes I mean look, he announced this effort today about supply chain, which is directly in the face of FedEx and UPS. For all we know it could be like Amazon Web Services. Could be a gigantic amount of money. Look at what he’s doing, he’s got the biggest construction project in Indiana history. He’s building all over the place, doesn’t have enough compute. He makes a very good case that he’s taking a 30 year perspective, only Amazon can take a 30 year perspective. And Carl, they just go from state to state and they build and they build and they build. They’re like what you thought the US government would do in the 30s. They are just a jobs program for everybody. And I know a lot of people hate them, and I get that they’re so powerful. But boy they can really change the face of an economy. Just when so many of them are borrowing 200 billion. 200 billion seems like the, that’s what you have to borrow in order to be in their league, and no one’s in their league!”

Vulcan Value Partners discussed Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:

“There were seven material detractors to performance: Ares Management Corporation, Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Salesforce, Inc., UnitedHealth Group Incorporated, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), and SAP SE. Amazon reported strong results for its fiscal year and fourth quarter. During the fourth quarter, AWS’s revenue increased 24% and highly profitable advertising revenue grew 22%. AWS is benefitting from AI driven demand for its cloud services and its growth is accelerating. In addition, Amazon is aggressively building out its promising Leo satellite service that will compete with Starlink. As a result, Amazon’s capital spending is forecast to increase over 50% in 2026 to approximately $200 billion. We expect a solid return on this capital spending. Bears believe that Amazon is investing too much money in capital spending. Our view is that it is a darn good problem to have and that Amazon will become even more competitively entrenched as the leading cloud services provider in the world.”

While we acknowledge the risk and potential of AMZN as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…
