Heavy AI investment and satellite launch as AWS faces increased competition

Amazon has committed $200 billion in capital expenditure, focusing on artificial intelligence infrastructure and Amazon Web Services as disclosed in its Q4 2025 earnings call. The company also launched its 'Amazon Leo' satellite internet service, deploying over 200 satellites to target enterprise and government markets. These initiatives come as AWS faces rising competitive pressures and the impact of substantial spending will depend on future revenue from AI and satellite projects.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, highlights persistent technical weakness in Amazon’s price action. He notes the stock continues to trade below all major moving averages, confirming short- and long-term bearish pressure. Kharitonov points to weak momentum and dominance by sellers, while oversold signals remain only mild. He is skeptical of the market’s reaction to high capital spending on AI and satellites, citing that such aggressive investments increase risk without near-term payoff. "Downward continuation remains likely in my view, as structural pressures are not yet resolved and catalyst follow-through is lacking," Kharitonov concludes.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees Amazon’s $200 billion capital commitment as a foundation for future dominance in AI and cloud. He believes strong investments in AWS and the new satellite venture will reinforce Amazon’s competitive edge despite short-term technical weakness. The expert notes that enterprise demand for modern infrastructure could drive growth as these projects mature. He expects the bullish structure to reassert itself as innovation translates into higher revenues. "In my opinion, the market offers multiple entry setups as Amazon’s long-term prospects remain robust," Karapetjanc states.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes that short-term sentiment looks defensive after the recent bounce, but technical signals are mixed. He sees oscillators hinting at oversold conditions, creating a potential for a quick rebound if buyers emerge near current levels. The analyst suggests traders watch for a break above $221.89 to signal renewed upside, while a fall below $203 would reinforce the bearish trend. He highlights the news momentum from satellite launches but warns that sentiment remains fragile. "For now, I’d track intraday setups close to support and wait for confirmation before taking fresh directional trades," Turakhiya advises.

Bearish momentum persists despite conflicting oversold signals

The nearest dynamic resistance is highlighted by the Ichimoku Kijun at $221.89, while short-term support is less defined below the current price. Daily momentum signals remain weak. The MACD and ADX on D1 both suggest a bearish bias, while RSI (35.43) and CCI (-57.25) point to mild oversold conditions, though not extreme. Bull/Bear Power confirms sellers are dominant intraday, with BBP on D1 at oversold levels. The Awesome Oscillator does not strongly support either direction. There is a divergence between some oscillators flashing oversold signals and directional momentum still showing bearish pressure.

Last time, analysts noted that Amazon.com, Inc. shares are trading below all major moving averages with sustained bearish momentum, as key technical indicators such as MACD and ADX confirm ongoing trend weakness. Oscillators, including RSI and Stoch RSI, signal oversold conditions, with immediate support near $204 and resistance around $222, reflecting persistent seller dominance despite elevated volatility.
