Amazon Has a Killer Advantage Nobody Is Talking About
Lest there be any doubt, Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is known the world over for its gargantuan digital retail platform. Sure, other more lucrative segments -- like its cloud infrastructure business -- make up the bulk of the headlines, but it was the company's online sales segment that put Amazon on the map.
That's not to say investors ignore the company's e-commerce platform. When Amazon's sales slumped last year in the wake of tough pandemic-era comps and in response to challenging macroeconomic headwinds, the stock lost half its value.
Yet as quick as investors are to make note of Amazon's perceived shortcomings, many seem willing to ignore a significant advantage the company has -- and it's hiding in plain sight.
