Shares of Amazon are down over 4% to $805.40, in after-hours trade, as negative Q1 revenue guidance overshadowed a solid Q4 earnings report.
Q4 earnings were announced at $1.54 per share versus a consensus of $1.35 per share. Q4 revenues came in at $3.5 billion versus $3.6 billion, which reflects a 47% increase on a year-on-year basis.
The Q4 revenue miss disappointed shareholders, but the Q1 guidance miss is what is really driving the stock price lower.
The company gave Q1 guidance in the range of $33.25 to $35 billion, lower than the expected range of $34.52 billion to $36.95 billion.
Key chart support for Amazon is now seen at or near $700.00.
