Should you forget Amazon? Why these unstoppable stocks are better to buy

It is undeniable. Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) It has been one of the most meaningful stocks in the market for the past three decades since its IPO in 1997. This exciting performance is a big reason why many investors are betting on companies now - they want to have more of the same magic. Maybe they will get it.

But, as old clichés remind investors, nothing lasts forever. Yesterday’s winner is not necessarily tomorrow.

With this as a backdrop, here are three unstoppable names you might want to consider adding to your portfolio beyond Amazon.

It's no coincidence that one stock worth considering is non-Amazon or anti-Amazon. That's it Shopping (Nasdaq: Shop).

In short, Shopify can help brands build and manage their own e-commerce business.

While the global network is still relatively young and online shopping is still new, the company is content to use Amazon’s high-traffic website as a sales platform. However, things have changed. As time went by and its mature business, Amazon.com became crowded and competitive (including with Amazon itself). Sellers eventually find that their own online store is better at serving them. That's why Shopify promotes.

And it's doing more and more things. Although the company no longer discloses its customer count, 5 million stores sold $292.3 billion worth of goods and services last year, converting them into $8.9 billion in revenue and $1.1 billion in net revenue. These figures increased by 24%, 26%, and $2.4 billion ($1.4 billion, respectively), extending long-term growth. Analysts expect similar growth rates in at least the next few years.

But, in fact, the growth runway was even longer before Shopify.

See, as big as the e-commerce industry, the U.S. Census Bureau reports that only about 16% of domestic retail spending is done online. The rest is still done in the store. While some consumer spending can only be produced in person, this is a lot of potential wins. There is only the potential upside for Shopsify to move from third-party platforms to local e-commerce stores.

Since the late 1950s, the world has been sending satellites into orbit, even bringing people to the moon in the 1960s. In fact, space flight has become so common that many people no longer consider a lot.

However, the next Rocket era may reignite this loss of excitement, not because it looks different, but because it happens more often and achieves more goals. This will also be more cost-effective, mainly because the development of new rocket technology has been privatized.

Rocket Lab USA (NASDAQ: RKLB) It is one of these for-profit rocket companies.

As of the latest count, Rocket Lab successfully launched a reusable electronic rocket with a total of 225 fairly small satellites deployed. As small orbit satellites become increasingly important to telecom service providers, this proven solution will be indefinitely demanded. Indeed, Rocket Lab has more than 40 satellites in its current release backlog.

But the company didn't stop there. It's thinking bigger. Literally. Its neutron rocket is a medium-sized launcher that can place up to 1,500 kg of payloads on its way to Mars or Venus, making it at least part of SpaceX's Falcon's rival. By contrast, it is easy to use Rocket Lab's rockets to get equipment and personnel to the moon.

Rocket Lab USA is not profitable yet and may not be at any time in the near future.

But be patient. Goldman Sachs The global satellite market is expected to grow seven times from now to 2035, with global market insights forecasting average annual growth rate for global commercial space launch operations at 14.6%.

Finally, add the used car dealer chain Cavana (NYSE: CVNA) Your unstoppable stock list is better than Amazon.

You know the company. Although this is not the first or only chain for a used car dealership, it seems to be the largest and most famous. Pass certain measures. However, according to records, Cavana itself estimates that it controls only about 1% of the highly fragmented used car business in the United States.

However, this is not a lawsuit for its marketability. This small number mainly emphasizes potential growth, awaiting an aggressive clothing and consolidates certain industries in the industry with clever marketing and wise use of technology.

Of course, that's Cavana - not that the company needs any serious help in the growth sector.

Yes, import tariffs on new cars and auto parts will ultimately be beneficial to the used car market. However, Cavana does not entirely need new tariffs to remain vigorous. Primitive inflation was helping the company a lot before President Donald Trump took office. The company's $13.7 billion high in 2024 grew 27% from its calm in 2023, rebounding from coma after a surge in sales following a post-pandemic pandemic.

Analysts call for similar growth until at least 2027. And, with S&P Global Mobility reporting the age of the average car now on U.S. roads, currently at 12.8 years, the outlook makes sense – a group of car owners will soon be forced to make these purchases and then make the repair and maintenance of current cars worth more than they are.

Arguably, this is the most dangerous of the three stocks associated, as its large upgrade from the March lows brought it beyond analyst consensus targets of more than $300. Waiting for at least one small callback won't go crazy.

Just don't be stingy. The larger picture background here is a firm bullish one.
