Despite strong institutional accumulation narratives, AMZN has already rebounded ~9.6% from its late-June trough to $245.34, pricing in much of the AI re-rating thesis at a $2.5T market cap while facing compounding macro headwinds: hyperscaler debt stress from massive capex commitments (C$7B bond issuance), rising global interest rates driven by Japan's 30-year debt crisis, and the China AI Curtain threatening AWS's cross-border model strategies. The crowded institutional long thesis creates asymmetric downside risk if Q2 earnings disappoint on free cash flow compression from the aggressive capex cycle. NOW is the right entry as the stock consolidates near $245 resistance having failed to sustain $250, with macro risks accelerating and the easy recovery gains already captured.
