one of the AI stocks analysts are betting on. HCLTech announced a new partnership with Amazon Web Services on November 25, aimed at speeding up innovation in the financial services sector. By combining HCLTech’s industry expertise with AWS’s cloud and AI capabilities, the two companies plan to help banks and insurers modernize outdated systems, improve customer experience, and meet regulatory expectations. HCLTech’s financial services head, Srinivasan Seshadri, said the collaboration is designed to address long-standing industry challenges and support a shift toward more autonomous operations.
Under the agreement, HCLTech will introduce pre-built, compliant solutions that streamline contact centers, strengthen digital engagement, and upgrade core platforms across banking, wealth, and insurance.

Martin pointed to Amazon’s focus on ROIC and free cash flow as key to its effective capital allocation. She highlighted the company’s strengths in logistics, energy expansion, and custom chip development—all of which help Amazon avoid bottlenecks and expand market share. She also noted that new AWS foundation models like Nova support stronger enterprise monetization, reinforcing expectations for continued growth.
