Amazon Topples Trillion-Dollar Mark After Earnings-Fueled Rally
Amazon's market capitalization surpassed $3 trillion after its stock price surged nearly 5% on August 3, 2026. The rally followed a strong second-quarter earnings report that highlighted robust revenue growth and investor enthusiasm.
The company's current Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratio stands at 4.01, which is above its historical median of approximately 3.4x and the cyclical retail industry norm. This suggests that investors are pricing in significant future growth despite Amazon's unprofitable and cash-flow-negative status.
GuruFocus' proprietary GF Value™ metric estimates Amazon's intrinsic value at $244.23 per share, which is about 16.3% below the current price of $284.15. However, this metric should be viewed as a directional indicator rather than a precise fair value target.
