Amazon Vs. Apple: Henry Blodget’s Pick

The better value between Apple and Amazon stock depends on a couple of things, Business Insider CEO Henry Blodget said Friday on CNBC.

On "Fast Money," he noted that Apple stock traded at a forward earnings multiple of 10, while Amazon was priced at a multiple of 97.

"The bet on Amazon … is they're making huge investments now, which are artificially depressing earnings, and then over the next few years those will pay off," he said. "I don't know that they will."

"I'm actually surprised how well the stock has held up considering how much money the company is investing," Blodget added.

Meanwhile, Apple's stock price is "reasonable," he said. "They should be in good shape going forward, but the margin is a risk.

Blodget noted that Apple is starting to penetrate areas of the world that are less affluent than the United States, such as India and China, which could challenge margins.

In response to a question by Stuart Frankel's Steve Grasso about what level would make Apple a value trap, Blodget avoided pessimism.

"The stock could fall a lot before it goes there," he said.
