Amazon.com IncJPMorgan raises price target to $365, citing strong AWS growth and AI-driven demand.

JPMorgan raised its price target on Amazon to $365 from $330, keeping an Overweight rating and citing concrete evidence that artificial intelligence spending is translating into measurable cloud growth. Amazon’s overall sales rose 20%, its fastest pace in 20 quarters, while AWS revenue grew 37%, the quickest in 18 quarters, and its backlog reached a record $496 billion, up 36% sequentially. AWS operating income surged 64% to $16.6 billion with margins expanding to 39.4%, carrying nearly 61% of Amazon’s consolidated operating profit despite accounting for only one-fifth of revenue. The bank’s analyst Doug Anmuth argued the cash-flow deficit is a timing mismatch, as data centers take about two years to generate revenue but operate for roughly 30 years, while AI servers can recoup costs in under three years. Amazon shares jumped 15.3% on July 31 following the earnings release, adding roughly $388 billion in shareholder value.
