Amazon’s Market Performance
As of July 14, Amazon’s stock has surged 230,000% since its IPO in 1997, contributing to a market capitalization of $2.4 trillion. The company is projected to generate $77.7 billion in operating income for 2025, reflecting over a 100% increase from the previous year.
Despite historical price gains of 891% in the past decade, analysts caution that future returns may not mirror this performance. Shares currently trade at a price-to-earnings ratio of 36.7, seen as reasonable given the company’s market position and growth potential.
