Today, the Amazon Maven reviews the wobbly performance of Amazon stock through the first six months of the year.\nThe first six months of the year are now in the rearview mirror. After climbing 330% in the five years leading to the end of 2020, almost like a meme stock of sorts, Amazon shareshad a less exciting first half of 2021: up “only” 6%.\nThe Amazon Maven reviews the stock’s year-to-date journey, which has been marked mostly by short bursts of rallies and pullbacks, not much by a clear trend higher or lower.\nFigure 1: Amazon's logo.\nAmazon’s first half numbers\nAmazon stock’s performance in the first six months is depicted in the chart below, in blue. Notice how shares seesawed, climbing in March, April and June, but correcting in February and May. Below are also some interesting metrics on AMZN.\n\nAbsoluteannualizedreturn of 12%, well below the S&P 500’sannualized33%.\nAnnualized volatility of 31%, a hair above its own historical average of 28% in the past decade.\nMaximum drawdown of 13%, not bad compared to peers like Apple and other growth stocks.\nBest month of returns: April,12%\nWorst month of returns: May,-7%\n\nFigure 2: AMZN's annualized return vs. S&P 500.\nNot unlike some of its tech and growth peers, Amazon stock kicked off the new year in style. Shares rushed ahead of fourth quarter earnings, when the company stunned investors with one of the largest all-round beats in the company’s history.\nSome could blame the announcement of celebrity founder Jeff Bezos’s retirement for the stock’s post-earnings selloff. AMZN share price declined 13%, the most so far in 2021, between earnings day and March 8. But I believe macroeconomic forces were the culprit here.\nWith the reopening of the economy and supply chain constraints that started to develop, the market began fearing rising inflation for the first time in many years. The 10-year government bond yield shot through the roof while Amazon stock fell apart. Cyclical sectors did much better than growth stocks.\nThe rebound in AMZN happened once yields stabilized in mid-March – and the recovery was fast and furious. Between March 8 and April 29, Amazon share price increased by a whopping 18%, nearly reaching September 2020 all-time highs.\nOnce Amazon’s monster second quarter earnings became old news, the stock started to head lower once again. Within only two weeks, AMZN had lost nearly 10% of its value compared to pre-earnings levels. The stock dipped into negative territory for the year.\nFrom that second quarter low, Amazon shot almost straight up to its current price of $3,450. Renewed bullishness was possibly driven by valuations that became much more palatable– current-year P/E in the mid-60s, which is unusually low for Amazon standards – without a deterioration in fundamentals.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":152953351,"gmtCreate":1625265530373,"gmtModify":1703739504557,"author":{"id":"3586685513027810","authorId":"3586685513027810","authorIdStr":"3586685513027810","name":"Blurly","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/439aadbe4ac7202abfbeb7587db040b6","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3586685513027810"},"htmlText":"Looking
