Compounder. Have to hold your nose to buy at current valuations, but you only have to look 2-3 years down the road to get to a more comfortable valuation. AWS is a driver, and AI will really come to the fore over the next 2 years. Invested heavily in e-commerce, and it's starting to see some profitability, juggernaut of the future.
Excellent company with strong assets in cloud computing and Amazon Web Services. eCommerce also continuing to preform well. Participated in "Magnificent 7 Rally". Has been earnings estimates the past 3 quarters. Increased demands in A.I. will contribute to demand in web services. Profit margins are exceptional in software. Will continue to hold. Believes growth is sustainable and will continue.
It is the biggest player in e-commerce and has a variety of products. Soon it can even sell cars. Also it is growing its cloud business. In addition it has a huge advertising business which is competing with Google and others. It has cut back on costs and is well structured.
What is the potential for a stock split? She doesn't know of any plans, but companies want it to be a reasonable number so there can continue to be a retail base in the stock. The market is giving this company a lot of credit. One analyst was quoted that the rules of valuation do not apply to this company. When you hear that, you wonder how much sentiment is driving the stock. To be fair, they have done a better job of generating cash flow in the last little while. However, they have a history of spending more than they make. Right now, the market is very accommodating to them. She is not participating in this stock.
