Andy Jassy makes it clear giving up on Amazons stock would be an expensive mistake

General News

Summary

Andy Jassy used his annual shareholder letter to defend Amazon's aggressive investment program, highlighting a planned ~$200 billion capex push largely aimed at AI data centers for AWS. He disclosed AWS's AI cloud had a roughly $15 billion annualized run rate in Q1 2026 and said much of the new capacity already has customer commitments. Wall Street worries about near-term negative free cash flow, but Jassy argued the spending will drive substantially larger medium- to long-term operating income and FCF. He also detailed investments in robotics, faster rural same-day delivery, and the upcoming Project Kuiper/Leo satellite service and asked investors to be patient while these bets mature.
