Apple’s year-end rally still has legs — but it’s entering a trickier phase. The iPhone 17’s strong sell-through, robust services growth, and record highs show solid momentum, yet valuation risk looms. With AAPL trading near all-time highs and investor expectations elevated, any hint of slowing demand or margin squeeze could trigger short-term consolidation. Still, its long-term story (AI integration, Vision Pro ecosystem, subscription flywheel) remains intact — so dips might stay shallow unless macro shocks hit.

Amazon, meanwhile, looks more like a stealth opportunity. Its e-commerce margins are rebounding, AWS growth is re-accelerating, and cost discipline is kicking in. While Apple may consolidate, AMZN could play catch-up, especially if AI-driven cloud demand sustains.

In short: Apple’s rally may flatten but not fade; Amazon offers deeper upside if you’re patient. Momentum vs. value — pick your battlefield.

AWS Boom Sends Amazon Flying! Time to Chase AMZN or AAPL?
Amazon jumped more than 13% after Q3 exceeded expectations, along with strong growth in its cloud-computing unit. AWS revenue accelerated 20.2% to $33 billion, which CEO Andy Jassy said was a pace it hadn’t seen since 2022. Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook on Thursday gave a forecast for holiday quarter iPhone sales and overall revenue that beat Wall Street expectations, powered by orders for iPhone 17 models that the company is racing to fulfill amid continuing supply constraints. Is there chance to chase Amazon and Apple?
