What moves AMZN

Amazon.com, Inc. sits in Consumer Discretionary. Retail, autos, travel, and restaurants — spending that expands when confidence and real incomes rise, and contracts first when they fall. The forces that matter most for the sector — and therefore for AMZN — are:

  • Real wage growth and consumer confidence
  • Interest rates on autos and big-ticket credit
  • Inventory cycles and promotional intensity
  • The trade-down between premium and value
