Amazon's 2026 capital expenditure outlook has shifted higher amid accelerating AI infrastructure demand, with management raising full-year guidance to $220 billion in late July from the prior $200 billion target, citing elevated memory chip costs and robust AWS backlog. This follows Q1 and Q2 2026 spending rates that already reflect a 50-70% year-over-year increase, driven by data center builds, custom silicon, and networking to support cloud growth exceeding 35%. The elevated capex has pressured near-term free cash flow into negative territory while supporting longer-duration assets, with traders monitoring AWS operating margins and any Q3 earnings updates for signs of further revisions or demand moderation.
