Ahead of the official release of Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40780100/apple-intelligence-ready-iphone-16-with-faster-processor-dedicated-camera-button-announced-check-pri">iPhone 16</a>, T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) CEO Mike Sievert has shared promising sales figures for the new model, indicating a strong start despite earlier concerns about demand.
What Happened: In an interview <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/18/t-mobile-ceo-says-iphone-16-is-selling-more-than-last-years-model.html">with</a> CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday, Sievert revealed that the iPhone 16 is outperforming last year&#8217;s model in sales.
&#8220;The first week was better than last year,&#8221; Sievert noted. He emphasized that customers are purchasing higher-end models, contributing more to Apple's top and bottom lines.
"People are buying Pros, they're buying Maxs, so they're buying up the food chain, and they're buying at a greater rate than last year," Sievert said, according to the report.

Although the iPhone 16 will hit stores on Friday, its much-anticipated AI features will not be available until next month. Some analysts had predicted lower demand due to this delay, increasing pressure on the Apple stock.
However, Sievert stated that demand remains strong and the delay might extend the buying cycle. He believes it will take longer for customers to share their experiences due to the postponed features.

Why It Matters: The positive sales report from T-Mobile comes amid concerns about the iPhone 16&#8217;s market performance.
Top analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40872864/apple-staring-at-lower-than-expected-demand-for-iphone-16-pro-and-pro-max-in-the-fi">pre-orders for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max</a> were lower than expected during the first weekend, with around 37 million units sold. Kuo&#8217;s analysis, based on supply chain surveys and pre-order data, suggested weaker demand for the Pro models, contrary to Sievert's comments.
Further, early pre-order data indicated that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/09/40930388/apple-iphone-16-pre-orders-show-possible-low-demand-one-sign-could-point-to-company-breaking-this-em">demand for the iPhone 16</a> might be lower than anticipated due to insufficient reasons for existing iPhone owners to upgrade.

Jim Kavanaugh, CEO of World Wide Technology, stated that leaders should not deceive employees about AI&#8217;s impact on jobs. 
What Happened: In an interview last week, Kavanaugh emphasized that employees are &#8220;too smart&#8221; to believe that AI won&#8217;t change job dynamics. He stressed the importance of transparency from CEOs regarding AI&#8217;s effects, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/19/billionaire-tech-ceo-bosses-shouldnt-bs-employees-about-ai-impact.html">reported</a> on Thursday. 
"If you think you're going to try to game this, and that you're going to tell employees nothing's going to change, and everything's going to be fine, that's just BS," Kavanaugh said&nbsp;
Kavanaugh advised that leaders should embrace AI and educate themselves about it. He acknowledged that while AI will disrupt some jobs, it will also enhance productivity and create new opportunities.
He also mentioned that no one can predict the exact impact of AI on jobs, and any claim to do so is misleading. Kavanaugh remains optimistic about AI&#8217;s potential benefits.
In related news, Clara Shih of Salesforce echoed similar sentiments, noting that AI will lead to new job descriptions rather than eliminating most jobs. Salesforce recently introduced an AI platform, AgentForce, to assist companies in various tasks.
Additionally, Klarna has utilized AI to significantly reduce its workforce, highlighting the technology&#8217;s role in reshaping business operations.

Why It Matters: The conversation around AI&#8217;s impact on the workforce has been gaining momentum. In May, Bill Gates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39084794/will-ai-take-over-our-jobs-bill-gates-asks-if-ai-can-support-blue-collar-jobs-as-it-is-already-d">discussed AI&#8217;s role in supporting</a> both blue-collar and white-collar jobs. Gates noted that while AI assists employees and streamlines tasks, its impact on white-collar jobs is already evident. Recent studies show that 37% of companies have replaced staff with AI, and 44% predict AI will lead to layoffs in 2024.
Further adding to the debate, an OpenAI engineer admitted that AI companies are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/05/39028738/openai-engineer-admits-ai-companies-taking-away-peoples-jobs-theres-nothing-you-could-do-to-stop-the"> taking away jobs</a>, and there&#8217;s little that can be done to stop them. This statement highlights the growing concern about AI&#8217;s role in the job market and the need for proactive measures to address these changes.
Moreover, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman predicted the end of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/08/40473377/linkedin-co-founder-predicts-the-death-of-9-to-5-jobs-by-2034-how-ai-the-gig-economy-will-reshape-th">traditional 9-to-5 job</a> by 2034, attributing this shift to AI and the gig economy. Hoffman argues that the workforce is undergoing a profound transformation, with increased productivity and flexibility but also uncertainty around stable employment.

Nasdaq (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NDAQ#NASDAQ">NDAQ</a>) and BYMA, Argentina's leading stock exchange group, today announced a significant expansion of their technology partnership that will see BYMA base its entire post-trade ecosystem on Nasdaq technology.
Under the terms of the agreement BYMA will adopt Nasdaq's real-time clearing platform at its central counterparty clearinghouse (CCP), complementing Nasdaq's existing technology partnership with Caja de Valores, Argentina's central securities depository, which is also owned by BYMA.
Together, the platform allows BYMA to improve the speed, capacity, and connectivity of its post-trade network, whilst optimizing risk management across the system through more real time access to data, advanced risk analytics, and greater operational resiliency. In addition, it aims to enhance reconciliation and the digital experience for clearing members, drawing on industry standard APIs.
The clearing system will be able to add capacity rapidly through periods of heightened volume, while its modular architecture offers BYMA the flexibility to launch new products and services with a much shorter time-to-market.
The move will support BYMA's shift to a model where cash and security settlement takes place at the central securities depository after netting has taken place at the clearing house, in line with international best practice. This will allow liquidity to be centralized and optimize collateral management for members, whilst ensuring a clear distinction of functional capabilities between the two entities. It also simplifies the company's existing structure whereby settlement, clearing, and risk are processed independently across three different systems.

Editor's Note: This story has been updated with a statement from Telegram.
French prosecutors have placed Pavel Durov, CEO of Telegram, under formal investigation using a stringent new cybercrime law.
What Happened: The LOPMI law, enacted in January 2023, criminalizes tech executives whose platforms facilitate illegal activities. This marks the first significant use of the law, which has yet to secure a conviction. Durov faces charges including &#8220;complicity in the administration of an online platform to allow an illicit transaction, in an organized gang,&#8221; carrying a potential 10-year sentence and a €500,000 fine, Reuters reported on Tuesday.
Being under formal investigation does not imply guilt but indicates sufficient evidence for a probe. Durov, who is out on bail, denies the allegations, asserting that Telegram complies with EU laws. Telegram has called the accusations &#8220;absurd.&#8221;
Paris Prosecutor Laure Beccuau praised the 2023 law in a recent radio interview, highlighting its effectiveness against organized crime operating online. The law is unique, with no known international equivalent, according to experts.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40870369/trumps-i-hate-taylor-swift-met-with-witty-response-from-harris-campaign-the-american-people-want-to?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trump&#8217;s &#8216;I Hate Taylor Swift&#8217; Met With Witty Response From Harris Campaign: &#8216;The American People Want ToBe Out Of The Woods&#8217;</a>
The case against Durov is significant as it tests the boundaries of the new LOPMI law, which aims to hold tech executives accountable for illegal activities conducted on their platforms. The law&#8217;s effectiveness and international implications are being closely watched by legal experts and tech companies worldwide.
Why It Matters: The investigation into Durov follows a series of legal challenges for the Telegram CEO. On Aug. 26, Paris Public Prosecutor Laure Beccuau <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40558693/telegram-ceo-pavel-durov-faces-12-serious-charges-french-prosecutor-reveals">released a detailed statement </a>outlining 12 serious charges against Durov, including complicity in facilitating illegal online transactions, unauthorized provision of cryptology services, and involvement in child pornography distribution, drug-related offenses, organized fraud, and money laundering. 
In response to these mounting legal pressures, Telegram had reportedly<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40745251/telegram-updates-policy-on-private-chat-moderation-after-ceo-pavel-durovs-arrest-heres-what-you-need"> updated its policy</a> on private chat moderation. In September, the company retracted a statement from its FAQ page that previously assured users of immunity from moderation requests in private chats. This move came after Durov&#8217;s first public statement post-arrest, where he committed to improving content moderation on the platform.
However, a spokesperson from Telegram highlighted that the update to the FAQs was made only to clarify how to report content on Telegram, including under the EU Digital Services Act and the retracted statement was not related to content reporting.
The spokesperson also mentioned that reporting messages from any group to the moderators has always been possible, which functions as a forwarding option. 
&#8220;Private chats remain private, although it has always been possible to report a new incoming chat to the moderators using the Block > Report option,&#8221; the person informed <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a>.

A Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) bull on Wednesday weighed in on the relationship between the electric-vehicle company led by Elon Musk and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40767621/elon-musk-refutes-reports-of-xai-negotiating-revenue-share-deal-with-tesla-there-is-no-need-to-licen">billionaire&#8217;s artificial intelligence company xAI. </a>
The Tesla Analyst: Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas reiterated an Overweight rating and $310 price target for Tesla shares. 
The Tesla Thesis: Training and simulation are the common denominators between Tesla and xAI, and these two are &#8220;deterministic&#8221; to Tesla&#8217;s future in robotics, autonomy and manufacturing, said Jonas in a note. AI execution is vital to Tesla&#8217;s upside, the analyst said, adding that the Musk-led company&#8217;s future valuation is highly dependent on its ability to develop, manufacture and commercialize autonomous technologies, ranging from transportation to humanoids.
The analyst also noted that training and simulation have been revolutionizing robots as accessing supercomputing resources for training and simulation is critical to optimizing autonomous software/models and hardware.
He said that xAI was established to attract top-tier AI talent who might not otherwise be interested in working for Tesla, the electric vehicle company. The AI company is investing billions of dollars toward assembling advanced computing resources which is beneficial to Tesla, he added.
Jonas noted that xAI&#8217;s massive compute cluster named Colossus has recently been brought online in the Memphis area, and it consists of 100,000 Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) H100s. Musk plans to double it to 200,000 H100 equivalent, he said.
Tesla&#8217;s rival in robotaxi operations, Alphabet, Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Waymo, has been aggressively expanding its fleet size, city deployments and technological/ network partnerships of late, Jonas said. &#8220;Waymo's recent resurgence is a reminder to investors that the road to AV supremacy is a race for data, computing, capital and talent,&#8221; he said.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-buy-tesla-stock">How To Buy Tesla (TSLA) Stock</a>
Sneak-Peek Into Robotaxi Day: Jonas raised doubts about Tesla living up to investors&#8217; high expectations as he does not see anything beyond a demo of the FSD v12.5 software and a ride in a generation 1 Cybercab. The company could share a detailed analysis of the addressable market, showing &#8220;tens of trillions of passenger vehicle miles and tens of trillions of $ of potential recurrent revenue (by 2050),&#8221; the analyst said.
Looking ahead to the Oct. 10 event, the analyst said he would look out for reinforcement regarding safety, which can be through comparing the safety of Tesla&#8217;s autonomous vehicle technology with human driving. Tesla may also have to show the rate of change of performance across recent full self-driving iterations, he said.
Investors will also look forward to the methodology, i.e. how the critical enabling technologies will likely drive further improvement in FSD/Cybercab autonomy, Jonas said. The Morgan Stanley analyst, however, does not expect Tesla to announce updates regarding its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39880470/elon-musk-pushes-back-optimus-timeline-says-teslas-humanoid-robot-will-hopefully-be-available-for-ot"> Optimus humanoid robot</a> at the event.
Tesla ended Wednesday&#8217;s session down 0.29% to $227.20, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro data.</a>

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further improvement in the overall market sentiment, with the index in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Wednesday, following the Federal Reserve&#8217;s interest rate decision. The U.S. central bank slashed interest rates by 50 basis points Wednesday at its September Federal Open Market Committee meeting, lowering the federal funds rate to a range of 4.75% to 5%. This marks the first rate cut in over four years and breaks a streak of 12 consecutive months with rates held steady.
On the economic data front, housing starts in the U.S. climbed by 9.6% from the prior month to an annualized rate of 1.356 million units for August. U.S. building permits gained by 4.9% to an adjusted annual rate of 1.475 million in August.
General Mills, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for its first quarter on Wednesday.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with consumer staples, utilities, and information technology stocks recording the biggest losses on Wednesday. However, energy and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 104 points to 41,503.10 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.29% to 5,618.26, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.31% at 17,573.30 during Wednesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Darden Restaurants, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRI#NYSE">DRI</a>), FactSet Research Systems Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDS#NYSE">FDS</a>), and FedEx Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 56.2, the index was in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 55.9.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Darden Restaurants, FedEx And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Thursday

NVIDIA Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) key supplier for high-bandwidth memory chips SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) declined over 6% on the South Korean exchange after Morgan Stanley&nbsp;downgraded the Korean memory chipmaker to underweight from overweight. 
What Happened: Morgan Stanley in a brokerage note slashed SK Hynix&#8217;s target price to 120,000 won from 260,000 won, citing the least preference for the stock among global memory makers, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-19/sk-hynix-shares-tumble-on-double-downgrade-at-morgan-stanley">reported</a> Bloomberg on Thursday.
"We prefer moving up to quality in Samsung and value-oriented end markets," wrote analysts Shawn Kim and Duan Liu. "Memory conditions are beginning to deteriorate. It will get tougher for revenue growth and margins from here as we move past late-cycle conditions."
The stock hit its lowest level since Feb. 19 after falling as much as 10%. Meanwhile, Samsung Electronics Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) saw a 3.1% decline among other semiconductor shares traded in Seoul.

Not So Fast, Polymarket Traders Say</a>
Why It Matters:&nbsp;In July, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. increased SK Hynix&#8217;s stock-price target to 290,000 won ($210), indicating a potential gain of 25%. Meanwhile, Citigroup Inc. raised its prediction to 350,000 won during the same period. 
SK Hynix's parent company,&nbsp;SK Group, pledged to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39575498/nvidia-suppliers-parent-company-pledges-56b-investment-in-ai-chip-tech-by-2026-as-competition-from-s" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;invest 80 trillion won</a>&nbsp;($56 billion) by 2026 in artificial intelligence and semiconductors, primarily in high-bandwidth memory chips, data centers, and personalized AI assistant services. This move is expected to strengthen its supply chains for emerging technology and bolster its position as a leading supplier to Nvidia.
The ongoing AI boom has put two South Korean chipmakers,&nbsp;Samsung&nbsp;and&nbsp;SK Hynix, in the spotlight. Industry experts are now discussing which company is the better investment in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38634543/ai-boom-puts-nvidia-suppliers-sk-hynix-samsung-in-spotlight-experts-discuss-best-so">this AI-driven market</a>.
Price Action: SK Hynix&nbsp;is currently trading at 151,800 won, with a decline of 6.76% on Thursday. The stock has gained 6.60% year-to-date, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/login">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, had managed to temporarily bypass a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40664929/brazil-judge-bans-x-after-months-long-feud-threatens-fines-of-nearly-9k-per-day-on-users-who-try-to">ban in Brazil</a> with the help of an automatic update of its software.
What Happened: On Wednesday, the Brazilian Association of Internet and Telecommunications Providers, or ABRINT, said that X has modified its structure to use IP addresses associated with Cloudflare.
This alteration has made it difficult to block X in Brazil.
According to ABRINT, the new IP addresses used by X are shared with other legitimate services, including banks and large internet platforms "making it impossible to block an IP without affecting other services."

In a <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-18/elon-musk-s-x-bypasses-brazil-ban-through-a-software-update">statement</a> to Bloomberg, the social media platform said that the restored access was "inadvertent and temporary," in Brazil. This happened after the company switched network providers following the ban.
"While we expect the platform to be inaccessible again in Brazil soon, we continue efforts to work with the Brazilian government to return very soon for the people of Brazil," the X spokesperson said.

Why It Matters: The ban on X was ordered by Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes after the tech mogul refused to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40623911/brazilian-supreme-court-tells-elon-musk-to-appoint-legal-representative-for-x-in-24-hours-or-face-su">appoint a legal representative</a> in the country.
According to local media in Brazil, following the restored access, the court has asked Brazil&#8217;s telecoms regulator, Anatel, to explain the unauthorized access of X, the report noted
Previously, it was reported that the ban on X could impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40709109/elon-musks-brazil-standoff-for-x-could-impact-tesla-spacex-and-other-ventures-warns-expert">Musk's other ventures</a> including SpaceX and Tesla.

Elon Musk's X Manages To Dodge Brazil Ban With Software Update, Court Wants An Explanation

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Last Monday&rsquo;s market rout saw <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/">tech stocks</a>, specifically <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/artificial-intelligence/">AI stocks</a> experience major selloffs as investors across the board decided to take profits from overvalued positions.



In fact, for many of the companies that experienced the correction, the selloff was a long time coming. As such, oversold AI stocks could be poised for a strong comeback as investors flock back to bullish sentiments on AI.



Moreover, these three AI stocks could see their prospects improve as a result of broader tech success beyond the news-cathing AI products. As a result, these companies might offer investors more long-term stability than companies that trade as pure plays in AI.



However, as a word of caution, the market itself has not escaped the downward pressures of a potential <a href="https://www.usbank.com/investing/financial-perspectives/market-news/economic-recovery-status.html">U.S. recession</a>. This means that at any time, these stocks could experience another downturn as the one seen last week.



As such, investors should look cautiously upon these three AI stocks with potential comebacks in the making.



<h2>Monday.com (MNDY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/monday-mdny-1600-300x169.png" alt="Monday.com (MNDY) logo displayed on smartphone held by two hands"><div>Source: shutterstock.com/monticello</div></div>As a provider of project management software, Monday.com (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mndy-stock-quote/">MNDY</a>) doesn&rsquo;t seem like one of the most obvious plays among AI stocks, its prospects appear strong to most analysts. Much of the recent excitement comes from the company&rsquo;s exceptional second-quarter earnings report.



Specifically, the company excelled in revenue growth and <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/MNDY:NASDAQ">soaring net income</a>.



As a result, the company posted a beat of EPS expectations by 67% with a more modest revenue beat around 3%. This has turned broader media attention positive on the stock, with investors buying into it after last week&rsquo;s tech selloff left it slightly discounted.



Moreover, the company&rsquo;s notable metrics increases in net dollar retention rate which came in at <a href="https://ir.monday.com/news-and-events/news-releases/news-details/2024/monday.com-Announces-Second-Quarter-2024-Results/default.aspx">110% overall</a> suggest it will not struggle to keep up this momentum heading into the next quarter. This could bode exceptionally well for investors who buy in during this comeback run.



<h2>Meta Platforms (META)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/meta-threads1600-300x169.png" alt="Threads app logo seen on screen. Instagram Threads app is a micro blogging platform, developed by Facebook Meta."><div>Source: Ascannio / Shutterstock.com</div></div>With heavy investment into AI spending, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/meta-stock-quote/">META</a>) has a lot to gain from a comeback story, though its stock did not suffer as much last week as others.



Having largely avoided a major loss in value, Meta has more of a solid upward trajectory ahead of it rather than s standard comeback.



Much of the company&rsquo;s momentum has come from healthy increases in valuation as its fundamentals continue to project serious growth. This, alongside major news about its <a href="https://www.techradar.com/computing/virtual-reality-augmented-reality/leak-teases-final-meta-quest-3s-ahead-of-its-expected-announcement-next-month">augmented reality</a> projects and AI platforms, could push the stock even higher by the end of the year. This makes the $600 mark possible in the <a href="https://investor.fb.com/investor-news/press-release-details/2024/Meta-to-Announce-Second-Quarter-2024-Results/default.aspx">face of continued growth</a>.



Furthermore, the company has successfully pulled off a pivot from the standard social media image to one of a tech investment firm working to push the edges of innovation. As such, investors should seriously consider Meta stock as a strong option for a growth-focused portfolio.



<h2>Amazon (AMZN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/amzn1600-300x169.png" alt="Amazon logo on smartphone screen with blurred Amazon delivery or shipping boxes in the background. AMZN stock"><div>Source: QubixStudio / Shutterstock.com</div></div>When it comes to AI stocks, no company has as much flexibility, thanks to diverse revenue streams as Amazon (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amzn-stock-quote/">AMZN</a>) does. That&rsquo;s because recently, the company has shown dominant sales performance, despite the slowing consumer market. Moreover, many of its services are still in demand, thanks to a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1018724/000101872424000130/amzn-20240630.htm">14% increase</a> year-over-year in service revenues.



As such, through its strong data collection efforts with Amazon web services, AMZN stock is likely to have no issues with recovering from last week&rsquo;s text stock so off. Looking at the companies price to earnings ratio of <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AMZN/">40x</a>, it&rsquo;s likely that Amazon will be able to sustain further growth once it goes back on the uptrend following last week&rsquo;s market crash.



Amazon&rsquo;s expansion could, however, slow. This would be the case if the U.S. enters a full recession, or if the Federal Reserve does not cut interest rates over the next few months, both of which cases are likely.
