The Race for A.I. Dominance
Fundamental Analysis for TSLA, PLTR, and AMZN - Stock Market Update
Today’s edition provides a fundamental analysis of three distinct technology leaders—Tesla, Amazon, and Palantir—each navigating a critical phase defined by strategic investments in artificial intelligence and infrastructure. While their market positions and near-term outlooks differ significantly, all three are making substantial capital allocation decisions designed to shape their competitive standing for the next decade.
Both Amazon and Palantir are in a period of aggressive growth and investment. Palantir reported an exceptional acceleration in Q2 2025, with revenue surging +48.1% year-over-year, driven by rapid adoption in its U.S. commercial segment. Amazon projects steady +11.1% revenue growth for 2025, led by its high-margin AWS and Advertising. Both companies are undertaking significant capital expenditures—with Amazon's net capex rising to $117 billion—to expand their infrastructure and solidify their market positions.
Remember that in this series of fundamental updates, the Capex term was explained in an educational segment last Wednesday, when the edition was focused on GOOG, AAPL, META, and MSFT; get access here:
In contrast, Tesla is navigating a planned strategic transition through near-term market headwinds. The company anticipates a temporary decline in revenue and vehicle volume in 2025 (projected at -5% and -10%, respectively) due to external policy changes and market conditions. However, it is leveraging its strong balance sheet, which includes $36.5 billion in cash, to fund a significant, long-term investment in vehicle autonomy and AI, aiming for a substantial shift in its business economics by the end of 2026.
