In the past six months (April 2026 - October 2026), Amazon's stock price experienced fluctuations, reaching $256.29 on October 6, 2026, a 15.56% increase from the previous year. The stock hit a 52-week high of $287.20 on August 3, 2026, and a 52-week low of $196.00 on February 17, 2026. The stock rallied in early October 2026, with analysts raising price targets due to strong AWS performance, increasing demand for AI-related services, and improving operational efficiency, despite an 11% drop since its August peak. Corporate events included a reduction of fewer than 1,000 corporate positions in its Stores division on October 8, 2026, following earlier job cuts of 16,000 in January 2026 and 14,000 in late 2025, as part of ongoing restructuring efforts focused on efficiency and AI priorities.
