Amazon stock price analysis
Amazon's stock soars after quarterly earnings, with the company's stock price breaking above a significant level around $133.9 and currently approaching another resistance level at $144.8. Following strong results and positive forecasts, it should not be a surprise if the company's stock price were to break above this level and continue the upward move. On the other hand, there is a possibility to fill the gap around the aforementioned $133.9 level.
