In its third-quarter 2025 investor letter, Janus Henderson Global Technology and Innovation Fund highlighted stocks such as Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN). Amazon.com, Inc.

Janus Henderson Global Technology and Innovation Fund stated the following regarding Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) in its third quarter 2025 investor letter:

"Out-of-benchmark hyperscaler Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) weighed on relative performance despite e-commerce, advertising, and profitability holding up well. The stock’s flat return was driven by whispers that Amazon’s AI offerings may not be as secularly advantaged as its legacy cloud business. We believe that any softness in bookings could be an issue of capacity rather than waning demand. We have seen this before when other hyperscalers encountered bottlenecks as they raced to deploy AI capacity. In previous instances, once capacity became available, order books again began to swell."
