Amazon: Riding the E-Commerce and Cloud Wave

Updated
Amazon is currently showing promising signs as it forms the right side of its base, presenting an excellent setup for long-term investors. With strong revenue streams from e-commerce and Amazon Web Services (AWS), the company remains a dominant force in multiple sectors. This diverse business model positions Amazon for sustained growth, even amid market fluctuations.

Technical Overview:
Recent price action shows Amazon bouncing off a strong support level around $182.38, with its 21-day EMA acting as a key indicator of momentum. As it approaches the $200 mark, investors should keep a close eye on these critical levels.

Profit Target: Initial target at $201.20, with further potential upside to $210 if momentum continues.
Stop Loss: Set just below the $182.38 support level to manage risk.
