Amazon (AMZN) shares are drawing attention in the Nasdaq market as they skyrocket following the announcement of strong second-quarter earnings.

As of 11:54 p.m. on July 31 (Korean time), Amazon shares are trading at $271.08, up 15.11% from the previous trading day on the Nasdaq market, showing a strong upward trend. This sharp gain in early trading is interpreted as a result of the earnings announcement, which far exceeded market expectations and significantly improved investor sentiment.

According to the second-quarter earnings announced by Amazon on this day, revenue reached $200.6 billion, up 19.6% year-over-year. In particular, earnings per share (EPS) stood at $5.75, surging 242.3% year-over-year and easily surpassing market estimates.

Analysts note that with solid performance and a firm growth trajectory confirmed, buying pressure from both institutional and retail investors is accelerating. The market is closely watching whether Amazon shares can sustain their upward momentum, as these earnings have once again validated the growth engines of AI (artificial intelligence) and cloud businesses, which are the company's core competitive advantages.
