Is Amazon stock a buy?\nAmazon's 30,000-square-foot stores, which will debut in California and Ohio, are less than one-third the size of Walmart's conventional outlets. They're about one-sixth the size of Walmart Supercenter stores.\nWalmart, the behemoth of brick-and-mortar discount stores, is dueling Amazon, the giant of online shopping, in a battle over the future of retail, e-commerce and grocery shopping.\nMuch work remains for either company to win theAmazon vs. Walmart battle. Walmart needs to expand online operations while also managing 11,500 stores across 28 countries, of which 4,743 are in the U.S. It's in the process of redesigning 1,000 stores by the end of 2021. Its goal is to create a more streamlined and faster shopping experience for customers.\nAt the same time, Amazon must continue its aggressive rollout of warehouse distribution centers and figure out its strategy for building physical stores.\nAmazon Is Making Critical Investments\n\"The key question from here is when/if does the current investment cycle drive evidence of share gains and margin leverage,\" RBC Capital Markets analyst Brad Erickson said in a note. \"Only time will tell, but in our view AMZN stock is making critical investments as consumers increasingly demand faster shipping which should at least maintain share gains while, importantly, growing gross profit dollars.\"\nAmazon reported third-quarter results on Oct. 28. Adjusted earnings fell 51% from the year-ago period to $6.12 a share. Analysts expected $8.92 a share. Revenue climbed 15% to $110.8 billion, below expectations of $111.6 billion.\nFor its fourth quarter, Amazon forecast revenue in the range of $130 billion to $140 billion. That missed analyst estimates for $142 billion. Amazon forecast earnings before interest and taxes, called EBIT, of $1.5 billion, versus estimates of $8.1 billion.\nThe company's cloud-computing unit, Amazon Web Services, reported revenue growth of 39% to $11.6 billion. That topped estimates for 35% cloud-computing growth.\nCowen analyst John Blackledge recently raised his price target on Amazon stock to 4,500, from 4,300. He listed Amazon as one of the \"best ideas\" for 2022, in the mega-cap category.\nAmazon Introduces Numerous New Gadgets\nOn Sept. 28, Amazon introduced aplethora of consumer electronics gadgets, including smart displays and a home robot, at a fall product launch event.\nThe Seattle-based e-commerce giant unveiled several devices that leverage its Alexa voice assistant technology. They include theEcho Show 15smart display, which is designed to keep families organized, connected and entertained.\nAnother Alexa-enabled device is Amazon's first robot, which is named Astro. The robot will act as a security guard, companion and mobile smart display. It brings together new advancements in artificial intelligence, computer vision, sensor technology, and voice and edge computing, the company said.\nEarlier this month, Amazon moved deeper into the television market with an all-new lineup of devices and its first Amazon-branded 4K smart TVs. The Amazon TV products go on sale in October. Amazon also introduced a 4K version of its Fire TV stick.\nPlenty Of Growth Opportunities\nAmazon entered 2021 with plenty of big growth opportunities. This included plans to expand its virtual health care program across the U.S. It is also expanding its prescription drug business.\nOn March 17, Amazon announced that its telehealth pilot program, called Amazon Care, would expand to all of its U.S. employees and their families as well as other firms this summer. The program first launched at its Seattle headquarters 18 months ago.\nIf Amazon can deliver more efficient health care services, the potential is enormous for fueling its growth engine — and by extension Amazon stock. Health care now comprises nearly a fifth of the U.S. economy.\nAmazon said the program enables workers to connect with medical professionals via chat or video conference, and connect patients with medical professionals. In addition, Amazon Care can dispatch a medical professional to a patient's home for additional care.\nAnalysts at Jefferies give Amazon a buy rating and price target or 4,000.\n\"We believe low expectations following two consecutive guide-downs better positions AMZN for upside in the core retail business,\" according to a Jefferies report.\n\"We also see attractive growth at AWS and advertising, AMZN's two highest margin businesses, serving to more than offset near-term cost headwinds from labor shortages and supply chain disruption,\" it said.\nTapping The Market For Prescription Drugs\nIn addition, Amazon is tapping into the $350 billion market for prescription drugs. The company fired a big shot across the bow of drugstores and prescription drug wholesalers late last year when it launched Amazon Pharmacy. The new unit will offer Amazon Prime members discounts of up to 80% on generic drugs and 40% on brand medications.\nOn May 26, Amazon announced it is acquiring iconic film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer for $8.45 billion, looking broadly expand its position in streaming video and increase the value of its Prime rewards program. The acquisition is Amazon's largest since buying Whole Foods for $13.7 billion in 2017.\nTo get Amazon Prime, users pay an annual or monthly fee for the service and receive multiple perks. This includes free access to Amazon Video and Amazon Music. Amazon has invested billions of dollars in its film and TV operations as well as live sports.\nAnother growth vehicle for Amazon in 2021 is advertising. When looking for a product, about half of U.S. adults start their search with Amazon. More searches draw more advertisers. And as Covid-19 has caused more consumers to shop online that will keep Amazon's ad growth humming.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"WMT":0.9,"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":816,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"CN","currentLanguage":"CN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":7,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ZH_CN"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/698614534"}
