Bezos Sells $4B as Amazon Hits $3T | Durham News

from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Amazon just hit a staggering three trillion dollars in market value, and founder Jeff Bezos cashed in with a four billion dollar stock sale — right after the company’s record-breaking close. This follows his earlier sales totaling nearly nine point seven billion since mid-2025, mirroring past patterns tied to each major valuation milestone. While Wall Street blinked at the timing, insiders note these moves are often pre-planned to avoid insider trading. The surge? Powered by record Q2 earnings — over two hundred billion in revenue (non-holiday) and booming AWS cloud growth fueling AI-driven profits. Retail investors remain undeterred, viewing Bezos’ sales as routine, not a warning sign. Amazon’s stock is already outperforming the broader market and tech peers — fundamentals strong, rally intact.
