Amazon is significantly reducing its reliance on the U.S. Postal Service for package deliveries, aiming to cut volume by two-thirds before its contract expires in October. This strategic shift, driven by Amazon’s expansion of its own delivery network and faster delivery options, could cost the USPS billions in revenue. Despite this, analysts maintain a positive outlook on Amazon stock, citing continued market share gains and growth drivers like AI and advertising.
