Amazon's Next Leap Forward In Advertising Could Boost Market Cap

  • Amazon's push into TV advertising, especially via sports rights, is a bold strategy to unlock a $100B+ market opportunity beyond e-commerce and AWS. The real win for Amazon is not just acquiring sports ad dollars but breaking the irrational link between sports and ad spending to drive non-sports ad growth. I am cautious about escalating sports rights costs, particularly the NBA deal, as chasing every league risks replicating the mistakes of legacy TV.
