What's Going On With Amazon Stock Friday?
Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) shares are trading lower by 2.6% to $173.24 at last check on Friday.
亞馬遜股票(NASDAQ:AMZN)下跌2.6%，最後報173.24美元。
The dip occurred after a U.S. jobs report revealed that the U.S. economy added 142,000 nonfarm payrolls in August. That's below the expected 160,000, but improved from July's revised 89,000.
此次下跌是因爲美國的就業報告顯示，美國經濟在8月份新增了142,000個非農就業人口，低於預期的160,000個，但相較於7月修正後的89,000個有所改善。
Despite weaker job growth, the unemployment rate dropped to 4.2%, and wage growth showed stronger-than-expected gains.
儘管就業增長疲軟，但失業率降至4.2%，工資增長也顯示出強於預期的增長。
Why The Data Matters To Amazon: Friday's report shows that average hourly earnings grew by 0.7% month-over-month, significantly above expectations.
數據對亞馬遜的影響: 週五的報告顯示，平均小時工資環比增長了0.7%，大大超出了市場預期。
Wage growth can lead to increased labor costs for companies like Amazon, which relies on a vast workforce. If Amazon's labor costs rise, this could squeeze its profit margins, especially given the company's scale.
工資增長可能導致像亞馬遜這樣依賴於龐大勞動力的公司的勞動成本增加。如果亞馬遜的勞動成本上升，這可能會擠壓其利潤率，特別是考慮到該公司的規模。

還有: 亞馬遜分析師表示，亞馬遜在電子商務和AWS領域的'主導競爭地位'爲其提供了很多看好的因素。
Before the report, there was a 43% chance of a 50-basis-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve, indicating market expectations of looser monetary policy to support economic growth. However, the better-than-expected jobs data, may reduce the likelihood of significant interest rate cuts.
在報告發布前，市場預計聯儲局會進行50個點子的減息，以支持經濟增長。然而，就業數據好於預期，可能降低了大幅減息的可能性。
Higher interest rates increase the cost of borrowing, which can negatively impact growth-oriented companies like Amazon, particularly in sectors that are sensitive to consumer spending and business investment.
較高的利率會增加借款成本，這可能對亞馬遜等增長型公司產生負面影響，特別是在對消費支出和企業投資敏感的行業。
While the jobs report tempers recession fears, it signals that the economy is in a delicate position. Investors might be wary of how Amazon's performance could be impacted by a slowing labor market and its potential knock-on effects on consumer demand, especially if wage growth doesn't keep pace with inflation in the long run.
雖然就業報告緩解了衰退的擔憂，但也表明經濟處於一個微妙的位置。投資者可能會擔心亞馬遜的表現會受到勞動力市場放緩及其對消費需求的潛在影響，特別是如果工資增長長期無法跟上通脹的步伐。
How To Buy AMZN Stock
如何買入AMZN股票
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share, or fractional share, of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument.
除了通過券商平台購買股票或分數股之外，您還可以通過購買持有該股票的交易所交易基金（ETF），或者通過在您的401（k）中配置策略來獲得股票。401（k）策略旨在尋求在共同基金或其他工具中獲取股票。
For example, in Amazon.com's case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
例如，在亞馬遜.com的案例中，它屬於消費者自由決策板塊。ETF很可能持有許多流動性強、規模龐大的公司的股份，幫助跟蹤該板塊的趨勢，使投資者能夠接觸到這個板塊內的趨勢。
