Partial Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 21. July 2026 · Predicted for 30. July 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle
Probability
70%

Amazon reported +28% YoY AWS growth in Q1 2026, the fastest pace in 15 quarters. Q2 EPS consensus is $1.82; company guidance is $194–199B net sales (+19–22% YoY) and $20–24B operating income. Drivers: continued AWS acceleration, record ad revenue, Prime Day uplift in Q2. Amazon routinely beats earnings estimates. Holding capex at $200B (no upgrade unlike Meta/Alphabet) is read positively as a cost-discipline signal.

Verdict: Partial Hit
Amazon meldete am 30. Juli 2026 einen GAAP-EPS von 5,75 USD – weit über dem Konsens von 1,82 USD. Allerdings war dieser Wert fast ausschließlich durch einen einmaligen, nicht operativen Vorabsteuergewinn von 53,4 Mrd. USD aus Amazons Beteiligung am KI-Startup Anthropic getrieben. Der operative/bereinigte Kern-EPS (ohne diesen Sondereffekt) wird auf ca. 1,19 USD geschätzt – also deutlich UNTER dem Konsens von 1,82 USD. Der ursprüngliche Vorhersageansatz (AWS-Wachstum, Prime Day, Werbeumsatz) war sachlich richtig – AWS wuchs sogar mit +36,7 % YoY (stärker als die prognostizierten +28 %) und der Umsatz von 200,6 Mrd. USD übertraf die Guidance. Der EPS-Beat war jedoch kein operatives Ergebnis, sondern ein Bilanzeffekt. Die Aktie stieg trotzdem +9 % nachbörslich, getrieben von AWS-Stärke und Umsatzübertreffen.
