Summary
Amazon reports Q2 this week, with traders zeroing in on AWS revenue near $40B and capex guidance that will signal AI spending trajectory. The company also filed plans for a 5,105-satellite LEO constellation for direct-to-device service starting 2028, a $13-20B project that adds a new long-term growth vector. Meanwhile, Google Cloud's strong Q2 results underscore intensifying cloud rivalry and pressure on AWS margins. Separately, AWS launched HealthOmics in Tokyo, and Warner Bros. Discovery sued Amazon for alleged employee poaching. The earnings print and capex outlook will be the immediate catalysts.
