(AMZN) stock has had a challenging run since August '20. While the rest of its FAANG peers have done well since August '20, AMZN stock has struggled to gain traction. But, perhaps, the market knows better. While the pandemic tailwinds drove Amazon's business to new heights last year, it has struggled to repeat its performance in 2021. It reported its weakest quarter over the previous three years in FQ3. To make matters worse, Andy Jassy & Co. issued a relatively soft FQ4 guidance that disappointed investors.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the market is always forward-looking. After enduring a sharp sell-down post-FQ3 earnings, its stock has already recovered its losses and went on to test its recent all-time high (ATH).</p>\n<p>We discuss what investors should look out for in FY22. We also discuss whether investors can add AMZN stock now, given the weakness in the market recently.</p>\n<p><b>AMZN Stock YTD Performance</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b7953a3a70a5a2abbfc41ed9aa7da757\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"331\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>AMZN stock YTD performance (as of 23 November 21).</span></p>\n<p>AMZN stock has been in a relatively long consolidation phase since August '20. Therefore, investors should not be surprised that the stock has underperformed the broad market in 2021. Nevertheless, it was close to testing its July ATH recently as it recovered remarkably from its post-earnings sell-off. The current market retracement has impacted its recovery momentum. Notwithstanding, we believe that the impact is transitory. We have confidence that AMZN stock will be on its way to taking out its July ATH again moving ahead.</p>\n<p><b>Amazon's Growth Should Normalize After An Exceptionally Challenging FY21 Comp</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17651a986ac6b754a69d5277ae0b26e8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Amazon quarterly revenue YoY change. Data source: S&P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>FQ3'21 proved to be an exceptionally challenging quarter for Amazon to comp. The company delivered a report that came in below consensus estimates but was within its guidance.We also highlighted in a previous article just before its FQ3's earnings release that we were confident that the company would outperform consensus. However, we were also surprised when the company didn't meet the consensus estimates. After all, the consensus estimates of a 17% YoY growth rate wasn't that challenging, was it? However, the company posted a 15.3% YoY growth in revenue. Thus, it easily ranked as the lowest YoY change over the last three years. If that wasn't enough, AMZN guided that its FQ4'21 revenue growth would come in at around 7.5% (mid-point). It would thus be the lowest YoY change over the last three years, surpassing FQ3's low. Notably, it also means that the company expects to post a single-digit YoY revenue growth, which is almost unheard of.</p>\n<p>Should investors be surprised? We think if we look at its 1-year YoY change, it's undoubtedly worrying. But CFO Brian Olsavsky also reminded investors:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Amazon's Q3 revenue of $110.8 billion represented\n <i>a 2-year compounded annual growth rate of 25% versus a pre-pandemic growth</i>rate in the low 20% range. We're grateful to our customers who have put their trust in us. (from AMZN's FQ3'21 earnings call)\n</blockquote>\n<p>We think this is telling. AMZN is pulling no punches here. It framed its \"disappointing\" FY21 performance so far as it rode the pandemic tailwinds strongly last year. Readers can quickly glean from the chart above where Amazon's revenue grew by 37.6% YoY in FY20. It would certainly be hard-pressed for investors to expect AMZN to outperform or even match FY20's breathtaking performance this year. After all, this company posted revenue worth $458B in the last twelve months (LTM). So, investors must be realistic.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4d2da3e09b97239f15dfb3880a269e83\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Amazon est. revenue mean consensus.
