We add Amazon stock to the Conviction Buy List given about 50% upside to our new $190 target price, slight YTD underperformance, and attractive multiples (26X our 2010E EPS) versus growth prospects (we forecast a 25% revenue CAGR over 2010E-2013E). We view Amazon’s China business as an increasingly important contributor to this growth trajectory, and one which we expect to become more visible through 2010."
