Why Amazon Stock Jumped on Monday
Shares of e-commerce and cloud computing giant Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) jumped sharply higher on Monday. The move was likely primarily driven by a bullish day in the overall stock market. But the company notably has an earnings report coming up this week; so some of the stock's gains could represent bets from investors and traders who are hoping for a good report.
The stock rose as much as 4.4% on Monday but finished the trading day up a total of 3.9%.
