Bezos Unloads $4.1 Billion in Amazon Shares Under Pre-Arranged Plan

Jeff Bezos, Amazon's founder, has filed to sell approximately 15 million shares of the company, valued at around $4.1 billion.

This decision follows Amazon's stock reaching a record high after the company reported stronger-than-expected quarterly earnings, driven by growth in its cloud computing and artificial intelligence sectors.

The sale is part of a pre-arranged trading plan adopted in November 2025, and the shares were sold through Morgan Stanley.

Bezos remains one of Amazon's largest shareholders. He has routinely sold stock through scheduled trading plans, using the proceeds to fund ventures such as his space company, Blue Origin.
