JPMorgan increased its price target on Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) to $240 from $225, reiterating an Overweight rating on the stock. The firm pointed to Amazon’s dominant positions in both e-commerce and cloud computing as key drivers of long-term growth.
Analysts highlighted that e-commerce still accounts for only about 20% of U.S. adjusted retail sales, while just 10% of IT spending has shifted to the cloud—indicating considerable room for expansion in both segments. Amazon Web Services (AWS), which holds an estimated 31% share of the global cloud market, remains a central pillar of profitability.
In the retail space, Amazon’s ability to toggle between first-party and third-party inventory, along with the strength of its Prime ecosystem, gives it flexibility and customer stickiness. The company is also benefiting from high-margin segments like AWS and advertising, which are expected to support ongoing margin and free cash flow growth.
JPMorgan sees Amazon on track to deliver multi-year operating margin expansion in North America and sustained improvements in free cash flow generation.
