Deutsche Bank has revised its price target for Amazon.com (AMZN, Financial), reducing it from $287 to $206 while maintaining a Buy rating. This adjustment comes as the company faces increased tariff expenses on imports from China, Vietnam, and other regions. Additionally, a slowdown in advertising revenue growth is anticipated to impact Amazon's earnings for 2025, potentially decreasing them by 15%.

The bank highlights significant variables within Amazon's operations, noting that pressures in Web Services and international divisions could further strain earnings. However, there are possible mitigations, including reduced fuel costs, favorable economic policies, and workforce adjustments. Despite these challenges, the bank regards the current stock levels as a plausible bottom for the shares.
