Preach Eric, preach!

The setup for $AMZN is starting to remind me some of $GOOG's a few months ago.

Not long ago, Alphabet’s shares were depressed due to worries about query share loss to third-party LLMs. But fixating on query share loss (though it was very much going on) made investors lose sight of a bunch of AI tailwinds: AI boosting total query volumes and improving ad ROIs, GCP taking share with the help of TPUs and the infra cost advantage they help enable, and TPUs getting sold externally (to Anthropic, xAI, etc.) for the first time.

Much the same way, Amazon has been pressured by worries about AWS (hampered some by its reliance on Trainium) seeing slower cloud revenue growth than Google, $MSFT, $ORCL and neoclouds. But fixating on recent AWS share losses is making investors lose sight of:

- How Anthropic’s breakneck growth (annualized revenue up ~7x already this year) is poised to be a strong tailwind (even if some of Anthropic’s compute needs are being met by Google)
- AWS (aided by its unmatched customer base and product breadth) being well-positioned to benefit as AI compute demand from enterprises and ISVs picks up
- AWS probably benefiting more than anyone as agents start boosting demand for non-AI cloud computing workloads
- Amazon getting serious – probably more so than any other tech giant – about using AI to cut costs and drive margins higher

Also, it looks like Amazon's ad business is doing well, with reports/checks pointing to strong CTV growth and DSP share gains.

One difference between Amazon today and Alphabet a few months ago is that Alphabet’s stock was also pressured by DOJ lawsuit fears, with shares popping after a court’s proposed remedies weren’t as bad as feared. Amazon’s stock isn’t dealing with any kind of similar antitrust overhang. But the similarities in terms of markets focusing on AI headwinds while ignoring a bunch of AI tailwinds look pretty strong.

$SPHR

$SPHR confirmed $130m ticket sales / 51 calendar days = $2.55m ticket bookings/calendar day.

Probably $145m including F&B at showing or $2.8m Experiences "bookings"/day.

Sellside '26e Experiences estimate = $452m or $1.24m/calendar day.

Good setup...
