"Undoubtedly, Amazon remains a Magnificent Seven disruptor and one of the top disruptors in the retail world, especially as it expands its grocery and physical retail presence. Still, the main draw to shares of Amazon seems to be more about AWS (Amazon Web Services) and its AI growth potential. With the rise of Alexa+, new warehouse robots, and the re-acceleration of AWS growth,"
"I find the following pair of e-commerce stocks to be growthier bets for 2026. MercadoLibre MercadoLibre ( NASDAQ:MELI) is a great e-commerce play, especially for investors looking to gain exposure to markets outside of the U.S. The Latin American e-commerce firm is growing quite rapidly, and with the fintech business also gaining considerable traction, it might be tough to stop MercadoLibre in its tracks as it expands across a fairly sizable total addressable market."
Amazon has a $2.6 trillion market cap and is no longer the same high-growth star it once was. Amazon remains a major disruptor in retail while expanding grocery and physical retail presence. The primary investment attraction centers on AWS and AI-driven growth, aided by Alexa+, warehouse robots, and renewed AWS momentum. Amazon shares rose nearly 7% early in 2026, but investors seeking stronger e-commerce growth may need broader exposure. MercadoLibre offers rapid Latin American e-commerce growth and rising fintech traction, presenting a larger addressable market and recent strong price performance.
