Amazon just dropped its Q4 numbers after the bell and the stock is getting hammered down \~10% in after-hours trading.
Here’s the key stuff vs. estimates (LSEG/StreetAccount):
• **EPS:** $1.95 vs $1.97 expected
• **Revenue:** $213.4B vs $211.3B expected
• **AWS revenue:** $35.6B vs $34.9B expected
• **Ads revenue:** $21.3B vs $21.2B expected
So revenue beat, AWS & ads slightly beat too, but the miss on EPS combined with a **$200B+ spending forecast** spooked the market hard. Link to CNBC for details.
Feels like the beat/miss isn’t that bad is this just selling the good news or something deeper? Thoughts on valuation and spending guidance?
