Amazon(dot)com Inc. (AMZN Stock) – Financial Analysis
If the predictions prove accurate and Amazon’s sales cross the $15 Billion mark, it might not mean that the consumers are doing well. Prime Day this year will come amid inflationary pressures and a bleak macroeconomic outlook in the US.
Proposed interest rate hikes and issues surrounding student loans might limit the spending limits of the average U.S. customer. Keeping the US macroeconomic outlook aside, the company could generate substantial revenue worldwide. If the speculations prove to be accurate, investors could also have some benefits.

Amazon(dot)com Inc. (AMZN Stock) – Candle Exploration
A steep ascending trendline and upward-moving EMA hint that the price might enter the supply zone soon. But the RSI of 65.32 getting close to the overbought zone might hinder the expected rally. A strong northbound momentum would be possible if the price crosses and sustains over the $146.81 mark.
Prime Days and the revenue influx, which is expected along with it, might push the price into the supply zone but can not guarantee sustenance. If the price drops, it might first battle the trendline itself while the immediate support at $110.16 would be the last line of defense before the price can enter the demand zone.
