Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Hit or exceeded the predicted growth inside the window.
The thesis — published September 28, 2025
Amazon looks pressured and short-term sellers seem worn out, which can set up a rebound. The company is still pushing logistics upgrades, like testing GM's BrightDrop electric vans, and strong demand for AI computing helps its cloud arm, AWS. Sentiment is constructive even though recent average price and overall momentum are weak. Plan to buy in parts over the next 3 months aiming for a move back toward typical price levels.
Primary drivers
- Sharp recent drop suggests sellers may be done, opening room for a bounce.
- AI computing needs drive more business for AWS, a key profit engine.
- Testing BrightDrop electric vans could make deliveries cheaper and faster.
- Positive mood in the market can help fuel a recovery from recent weakness.
How it played out
AMZN: target was not reached
Lyra published AMZN at 219.78 on 2025-09-28 with a short-term thesis for 22% growth toward 268.13. The thesis pointed to worn-out sellers after a sharp recent drop, stronger AWS demand from artificial intelligence computing, logistics upgrades tied to BrightDrop electric vans, and constructive market mood despite weak recent price action.
Inside the window, AMZN rose to 258.60 on 2025-11-03, a 17.7% peak gain. That stayed below 268.13, so the target was never reached. By 2025-12-27, it ended at 232.52. The thesis partially played out, but it missed the published target.
