2. Amazon’s Disappointing Outlook

$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ shares fell after issuing weaker-than-expected Q1 sales guidance. Despite record capital expenditures for AI infrastructure, AWS revenue growth came in slightly below forecasts at $28.79 billion versus the expected $28.87 billion. The report followed disappointing cloud results from Alphabet and Microsoft.

3. January Jobs Report and Revisions

Jobs

• Forecast: Economists expect 170,000 new jobs, down from December’s 256,000, with unemployment steady at 4.1%.

• Weather Impact: Morgan Stanley estimates that wildfires and extreme cold could have reduced job gains by 70,000.

• Benchmark Revisions: The Bureau of Labor Statistics will release updated employment data, which could significantly alter past job growth figures. Analysts are divided, with estimates ranging from a minor adjustment to a downward revision of up to 818,000 jobs.

Conclusion

Markets remain stable ahead of key labor data that could reshape perceptions of U.S. employment trends. With AI investments surging and economic uncertainty lingering, investors remain cautious about both past and future job growth.
