According to Morgan Stanley, U.S. e-commerce is projected to grow at an 8% compound annual growth rate, reaching 29% of retail spending by 2028. However, the firm cautions that larger e-commerce players will dominate market share gains. Analyst Nathan Feather highlighted that Amazon (AMZN) and Walmart (WMT) captured nearly two-thirds of the incremental e-commerce spending in 2023, leaving smaller players competing for the remaining sales. Morgan Stanley's e-commerce sector ratings reset included a double upgrade for eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) to Overweight from Underweight, and a downgrade for Etsy (NASDAQ:ETSY) to Underweight. The firm cited Etsy's limited frequency growth as a reason for the bearish medium-term growth trajectory, while eBay's generative AI features and comparative valuation were noted as positives. Morgan Stanley's price target on eBay of $62 stands as a Street high. Morgan Stanley also maintained an Overweight rating on Chewy (NYSE:CHWY), emphasizing its status as a top idea. Feather noted, "We believe CHWY is at a profitability inflection point with EBITDA growing at a ~28% '23-'26 CAGR as it ramps advertising and improves unit economics through category mix and automation." In premarket trading on Thursday, eBay rose 3.50%, while Chewy saw a 0.45% increase. Etsy, however, experienced a 4.15% decline following the Morgan Stanley ratings adjustment.
