On Feb 06, 2026, it was reported that RBC Capital gave AMZN a "Outperform" grade with a "hold" action.

The stock lies in the middle of a wide and falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled.Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -5.37% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $187.26 and $228.02 at the end of this 3-month period.

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, February 13, 2026, and so far it has risen 5.69%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Amazon stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $228.54. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $203.34. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Amazon finds support from accumulated volume at $208.72 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Sell to a Hold candidate.
