Before the numbers, is there anticipation among investors that Amazon's stock will rise?
Amazon's third quarter results for the fiscal year are scheduled for October 24th, and analysts are anticipating a positive performance for the tech giant's stock. Goldman Sachs, for instance, considers Amazon a buy ahead of the upcoming results, with a price target of $230.
Experts from "The Motley Fool" speculate that Amazon could become the first company with a market capitalization of five trillion US dollars. This optimism aligns with broader forecasts where Amazon's stock price is expected to show significant growth over 2025, despite some short-term fluctuations.
Goldman Sachs expects relatively stable eCommerce demand and accelerated growth for Amazon's cloud computing service AWS. These expectations are reflected in the forecasted performance of Amazon's stock after the third quarter results announcement.
Predictions indicate that Amazon's stock price could rise significantly during October 2025. The opening price is anticipated to be around $311-$308, with a maximum price range between approximately $382 and $387. The averaged price is expected to be near $339-$342, and the end-of-month price is projected to be near $354-$358, reflecting a price increase of around 15% during October 2025.
Furthermore, the upward trend appears to continue into November and December 2025, with December prices potentially reaching above $400. These forecasts suggest that the market expects positive results or favorable investor sentiment around this period.
It's worth noting that 45 analysts recommend a buy for Amazon's stock, and only two are holding. Amazon's stock is included in the Tech-Giants Index of BÖRSE ONLINE. The stock has gained 23 percent this year, which is on par with the overall performance of the US S&P 500 index. The average price target for Amazon's stock is around €224, which corresponds to a potential price increase of about 20 percent.
Amazon's long-term growth investments include artificial intelligence (AI) and the upcoming satellite program called "Kuiper". The company is expected to achieve a "solid mix" of revenue growth and expansion of operating margins while investing in these areas.
However, it's important to note that the stock has been moving sideways for some time, lacking momentum. Furthermore, investors have not been able to beat the market with Amazon's stock so far.
