Amazon’s 2026 Growth Potential Fueled by AI and Cloud Computing
Amazon (AMZN) has positioned itself as a dominant player in the AI and cloud computing sectors, with its AWS division and potential OpenAI collaboration driving bullish forecasts. Truist Securities analyst Youssef Squali projects 10.5% growth in 2026, down slightly from 12.1% in 2025, citing AI-driven services as a key catalyst.
The proposed $10 billion investment in OpenAI could significantly boost Amazon's semiconductor business, particularly its Trainium chips. Marketed as a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to Nvidia's GPUs, these chips align with growing corporate demand for sustainable data center solutions.
