The Big Move Scott Calculated In Amazon Stock

Amazon stock has had a wild year.

It’s up over 15% in 2026 — and nearly 31% in the last month!

It’s one of five Mag 7 stocks that report earnings this week, and among four that reveal their quarterly results on Wednesday, April 29.

Scott Bauer loves Amazon stock, and has it on his radar as a potential earnings play ahead of the report.

In addition to highlighting Amazon in Sunday’s Weekly Earnings Prep issue, he did a deep dive on the name in today’s MarketMinds episode.

Scott breaks down Amazon’s earnings outlook, how he would consider trading the stock, and uses his Expected Move strategy to calculate how much it could move in the coming days.
