Classic Desolate Desert Island Scenario: I need to buy a stock that I will buy today and keep it forever. I cannot move the castle poles by choosing a Stock Exchange Investment Fund (ETF) and I do not plan to create a portfolio around this name.
This is just a share and I will always have one investment. They’re all alone.
Watch out, I don’t recommend you to do it with real money. Diversification is importantAnd no stock is absolutely risk -free. This is just a fun experiment.
However, I can dream of entrusting my savings of life Amazon(NASDAQ: AMZN) Today. How Jeff Bezos’ empire won this rare honor.
If I can’t diversify my single stock with an ETF, I will go with a leader in many different sectors. Amazon follows the invoice to perfection:
Amazon is an e-commerce Titan with a second quarter of $ 137 billion.
The Amazon Web Services (AWS) section did not fully invent cloud computing, but it was an early provider in this field and remains the best name today. In the second quarter of 2025, AWS sales reached $ 30.9 billion.
During the AWS, you will find Amazon in several different leadership positions. AWS is the best choice for artificial intelligence (AI) services on both system training and real -time AI operations. When Amazon’s digital advertising platform wins on September 10 Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) 11 Advertising Sales Contract in Key Market.
Great e-commerce requires a first-class transport infrastructure and Amazon sells these services to other online retailers today.
This is an online shopping portal, the world’s largest cloud computing service, first-class advertising and AI services and a winning physical logistics work-upsi. This is a really diversified investment portfolio.
Amazon’s holding structure comes with some unique benefits. Let’s play a little term bingo! Here are several institutional synergies with financial benefits:
AWS started as a small side concert, trying to earn some money from the online infrastructure set by Amazon and did not always use it. Now, when it requires a digital vehicle (web server area, AI support, data analysis, advertising-technology innovation …) of the retail business of the retail business, AWS is an obvious internal choice.
The profits collected in the AWS section of incredibly profitable AWS section can be deployed in other projects. The shipping infrastructure saw a major expansion in the period of 2020-2022, for example. This push would not be possible without the exploding wife of the AWS segment.
Amazon’s advertising platform benefit from the enormous transaction data bank in the company’s own retail operations.
The main customer loyalty program has become the digital glue that holds Amazon’s growth drivers together. Stay for a free -day shipping, award -winning main video shows or Echo/Alexa smart home system. Or, you know, the opposite.
While talking about Prime, by the way, he borrows a page from Amazon Costco Wholesale Sales(Nasdaq: Cost) Game Book. Costco’s operations would lose money without a membership program. However, when you produce Costco customers almost pure -profitable rich rivers, you make the likelihood of choosing this store higher (because I pay for that valuable card).
Uses the Amazon Prime in a similar way – unlocking the synergies and directly as a result.

If you jump to the last part of my Amazon analysis, here is the short version.
I’ve been waiting for Amazon to remain a business leader for decades. Today, I do not see any reason to change the 5 most valuable enterprises measured by market value and in the long term.
This small trillion dollar stock should serve me well on this hypothetical desert island.
