3 Stocks to Buy in February
February is the shortest month of the year, so investors don't have as much time to buy great stocks as they do in other months. And there are plenty of strong contenders to consider. Here are three stocks I think should be near the top of the list to buy this month.
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) has lagged well behind the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) over the last 12 months. However, share prices tend to follow earnings growth sooner or later. Amazon's bottom line is growing robustly, driven in part by the company's initiatives to improve efficiency. I fully expect this trend will continue when Amazon reports its 2025 fourth-quarter results later this week.
I also believe that agentic AI will provide a strong tailwind for Amazon Web Services (AWS) in 2026. AWS gained momentum in the third quarter. As companies invest more heavily in deploying AI agents and begin to see returns on those investments, Amazon's industry-leading cloud unit should benefit tremendously.
