AWS Boom Sends Amazon Flying! Time to Chase AMZN or AAPL?

Amazon jumped more than 13% after Q3 exceeded expectations, along with strong growth in its cloud-computing unit. AWS revenue accelerated 20.2% to $33 billion, which CEO Andy Jassy said was a pace it hadn’t seen since 2022. Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook on Thursday gave a forecast for holiday quarter iPhone sales and overall revenue that beat Wall Street expectations, powered by orders for iPhone 17 models that the company is racing to fulfill amid continuing supply constraints. Is there chance to chase Amazon and Apple?

I seen the reviewed for Xiaomi 17pro it's a better phone but Apple 17 pro will probably sell much better. that's the power of branding and Apple building it eco system that makes it hard to switch to Android

The next few years are gonna be wild. Anyone who gets caught up in a little blip here or there is confusing the weather for the climate. Bet against or exit AAPL at your own peril.
