Amazon Stock (AMZN) Amazon (AMZN) stock has been one of the top performers on the US stock market in 2024. The stock has even outpaced the Dow Jones in the last three months, and is set to rise higher next year.
At the re:Invent conference in Las Vegas, Amazon Web Services (AWS) presented several significant artificial intelligence projects. These comprise the launch of basic artificial intelligence models, collaborations with GitLab and PagerDuty, and a new video search tool created with startup Twelve Labs. Although the stock is down 3.7% from its 52-week high of $215.90 it reached in November, AMZN still sits north of $200. Over the past year, AMZN has risen by 43%, and its efforts in AI could propel the stock further in 2025.
Amid its massive growth across a variety of sectors, Amazon (AMZN) is predicted to lead what Goldman Sachs has projected as a $2 trillion market. As a growing leader in the AI market, AMZN will surely be a leader in the markets as well. While Nvidia still sits far ahead in the AI stock industry, AMZN is playing catchup, as can be seen by its recent growth.

Amazon Stock Heading to $250 In 2025?
At press time, Amazon stock sits at $218. Over the coming month, if AMZN replicates its 30-day 10% climb, it could open 2025 at just under $240. This opens another door to push towards a $250 stock valuation sometime in January 2025.
Furthermore, While competing against Nvidia, AWS is also expanding its partnership with the tech giant. Garman said Tuesday that AWS will soon offer a P6 family of computing instances with Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs that will offer 2.5x faster compute power than its current generation of GPUs. “AWS is by far the best place anywhere in the world to run GPU workloads,” Garman said during his keynote. “Part of the reason is because AWS and Nvidia have been collaborating together for 14 years to ensure that we’re really great at operating and running GPU workloads.” This means that while chasing the chipmaker in the stock market race, AMZN will also be getting some added help if the GPUs perform well sales-wise.
