Specifically, the firm’s data shows that the retail side of Amazon’s business in North America is performing above the Street.
YipitData said Amazon’s North American Net Sales are projected to beat consensus in 1Q23 while April sales are also trending ahead of 2Q consensus.
Shares of Amazon are up 2.5% mid-day Friday while the broader tech-heavy NASDAQ is down 0.2%.
