Amazon Q3 misses revenue and EPS estimates, but AWS revenue jumps 39%.

Amazon's third-quarter earnings fell short of analyst expectations for both total revenue and earnings per share, with net sales at $201.9 billion versus the expected $202.2 billion, and EPS at $1.89 against $1.97 expected. However, its cloud division, Amazon Web Services (AWS), was a bright spot, posting $45.98 billion in sales, beating estimates and growing 39% year-over-year. The company reported a significant cash burn, with free cash flow dropping to negative $42.4 billion over the past 12 months, largely due to heavy investments in AI. Amazon expects to spend about $220 billion in capital expenditures for 2026, nearly matching its forecasted Q4 sales, highlighting its aggressive investment strategy despite short-term financial pressures.

Following Amazon's mixed earnings report, the stock experienced a sharp decline, dropping 9.81% in one day to USD 229.62 on Pluang as of Oct 30, 2026 04:31 WIB. Despite the sell-off, the platform shows a balanced interest with 60% of orders to buy and 40% to sell. Amazon's market capitalization remains substantial at $2.75 trillion, reflecting its significant presence in the consumer cyclical sector.
