  • Amazon might be a massive corporation that generated a whopping $575 billion in trailing 12-month sales, but its expansion is not anywhere close to being done. The business benefits from multiple growth engines propelling it forward.

The article from The Motley Fool, published on December 11, 2024, discusses the investment merits of Amazon versus Apple, aiming to determine which stock might be the better buy at that time. It highlights Amazon's robust growth in e-commerce, cloud computing through AWS, and its advertising sector, noting that despite its high valuation, Amazon's diversified revenue streams and potential in AI could justify its price. Conversely, Apple is portrayed as a more mature company with steady but slower growth, focusing on its loyal customer base, high-profit margins from hardware like the iPhone, and expanding services like Apple TV+ and Apple Music. The article suggests that while Apple offers stability and consistent dividends, Amazon's growth prospects might appeal more to investors looking for long-term capital appreciation, especially given its advancements in technology and market expansion. However, the choice between the two would depend on an investor's risk tolerance, investment horizon, and preference for growth versus stability.
