- Amazon stock hit a $3 trillion market cap following its Q2 cloud earnings, per qz.com
- CNBC, Bloomberg, and Reuters all framed the rally as driven by AI and cloud growth powering the stock surge
- Amazon now joins an elite list of stocks to top $3 trillion in value, per Bloomberg
Why it matters: Amazon joins Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia in the $3 trillion club — a milestone now defined by cloud and AI infrastructure revenue rather than retail. Crossing the threshold on cloud earnings specifically signals that AWS momentum, not e-commerce, is what institutional investors are pricing in.
