Amazon crossed the $3 trillion market capitalization threshold for the first time, becoming the fifth company to reach the milestone alongside Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Nvidia. Shares climbed roughly 5% in early trading following a 15% jump on August 1, with Amazon previously reaching $2 trillion in June 2024 and $1 trillion in late 2018. The surge was driven by accelerating growth in Amazon Web Services, rising enterprise demand for AI infrastructure and cloud software, and improved retail margins through regionalized fulfillment centers and automated logistics.
