My speculation from a non-financial expert view might be that as an average investor deciding where to put money, Amazon stock doesn’t seem like a good bet when there’s very low risk easy ways to get at least 4.5%. Maybe they are working on a way to show investors why they’d be a better investment.
This is speculation, so would love any corrections or counter points.
read enough doomsday social media material and you'll be convinced you should lock your money into treasuries at 4% instead of equities all together (any stock, including index/mutual funds)

When was the last time Amazon issued new shares to raise funds?
The stock market is a secondary market. You or me buying shares doesn't effect Amazon at all. They don't get a penny of your money when you buy shares
