Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has never looked more like a cloud and AI company that also happens to run the world’s biggest store. AWS revenue grew 39.3% last quarter, the fastest pace in nearly five years. Shares trade at $254.13, up 10.1% year-to-date even after a 4.47% pullback today. That drop followed a hyperscaler rally on the election results (CNBC).
The chief executive is thinking much bigger: “There has never been a trillion dollar revenue business, and we may have two of them in the next 5-10 years.” Here is what Amazon needs to do to hit $350 in 2027.
Wall Street Already Sees Big Upside for AmazonThe consensus price target of $326.74 implies 28.6% upside. Analysts are close to unanimous, with 16 Strong Buy and 42 Buy ratings against just 2 Holds. They expect 2027 revenue of about $950 billion, or 14.6% growth.
The 2027 EPS estimate has rose to $10.5805 from $10.4079 90 days ago. Q1 2026 was the fifth consecutive quarter that Amazon cleared the EPS bar, and Q2 beat again. Q3 then missed by 3.47%.
Here’s the Math Behind $350 Per ShareToday Amazon trades at about 24x 2027 earnings. At $350, the multiple would rise to roughly 33x. It’s a premium, but it buys a cloud business with a 38.7% operating margin and a $578 billion backlog.
Several factors could drive Amazon to $350.
The main hurdle is spending. Capex is running at about $220 billion for 2026, with “meaningfully more in 2027” on the way, and trailing free cash outflow stands at $42.4 billion.

That capex wave has to be powered, cooled, and connected by somebody, which is why we pulled together seven suppliers riding the data-center expansion in a free report you can grab here.
Amazon’s History Says $350 Is PossibleReaching $350 requires a 37.7% gain. Amazon has topped that in 11 calendar years since 2000.
Shares rose 44.4% in 2024, 80.9% in 2023, 76.3% in 2020 and 117.8% in 2015. At a market cap near $2.75 trillion, matching those runs is harder. Still, the stock has done it before.
$350 Is a Stretch, but the Path Is ClearHitting $350 would take a 37.7% gain from today’s price. Wall Street already sees 28.6% upside, estimates are rising, and AWS is guiding to faster growth.
Heavy capex and a volatile market could slow the climb. If AWS clears 40% and Trainium sales take off, $350 is within reach. Returns at this level shouldn’t be expected every year, but we’ve outlined the plan for how Amazon could see outsized returns in 2027.
