However, Rosenblatt Securities analyst Scott Devitt sees an edge for Amazon. Devitt initiated coverage of both stocks with Buy ratings, giving Amazon a $335 price target (26% upside) and GOOGL a $410 price target (18.9% upside). ### Summer Sale - Claim 70% Off TipRanks 200% short exposure to AMZN with AMZO Rosenblatt sees both stocks as attractive AI plays, but Amazon stands out for its combination of strong AWS growth, expanding AI exposure, and a broader competitive moat. Its cloud infrastructure, AI capabilities, and massive fulfillment network give Amazon multiple ways to benefit from rising AI spending while supporting growth across its broader business. ## **Why Rosenblatt Likes Amazon** Devitt called Amazon "one of the most resilient leaders" in Rosenblatt's coverage. He believes Amazon's position in AI is still underappreciated, particularly as its cloud business continues to accelerate. Amazon Web Services (AWS) grew 37% year-over-year in the second quarter, marking its fifth consecutive quarter of accelerating growth. Devitt expects AWS growth to reach 45% by the end of 2026, compared with the Street's 38% estimate. He also expects AWS revenue to exceed $335 billion by 2028. According to Devitt, companies increasing their AI spending are also using more of Amazon's broader cloud services, driving additional demand for AWS. Devitt believes Amazon's combination of its own computing infrastructure and large physical fulfillment network gives the company an advantage that extends beyond AI. ## **Alphabet Also Has AI Upside** Devitt is also bullish on Alphabet. He believes concerns about Google's Search business have largely been reflected in the stock, while its role as a major AI cloud provider is becoming more important. The analyst expects Google Cloud to remain a key growth driver. Stronger cloud profits, along with growing revenue from its custom Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), could support further upside for Alphabet's valuation. However, Devitt sees one key risk for GOOGL stock. A slowdown in Google Cloud growth could hurt his investment thesis more than renewed concerns about Search. ## **AMZN or GOOGL: Which Stock Is Wall Street's Favorite?** The TipRanks Stock Comparison Tool shows that both AMZN and GOOGL have a Strong Buy consensus rating from analysts. AMZN's average price target implies 25.6% upside, and GOOGL's average price target implies 22.5% upside. ### Related Stocks - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [AMZN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZN.US.md) - [GOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [AMZZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZZ.US.md) - [GGLS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLS.US.md) - [GGLL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLL.US.md) - [AMZW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZW.US.md) - [GOU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOU.US.md) - [AMZU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZU.US.md) - [GOOW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOW.US.md) - [GOOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOL.US.md) - [AMZD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZD.US.md) - [GOOY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOY.US.md) - [GOOX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOX.US.md) - [GOOP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOP.US.md) - [MAGX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MAGX.US.md) - [AMZO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZO.US.md) - [AMZY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZY.US.md) - [AZYY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AZYY.US.md) - [AMZP.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMZP.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Amazon Thinks AI Is About to Change the Way We Shop.
