That means he's sold about $1.95 billion worth of Amazon shares over the past two days.The transactions were made as part of a prearranged 10b5-1 trading plan, according to the filings. Representatives from Amazon weren't immediately available to comment on the latest sale.The sales come one week after Amazon reportedfirst-quarter earnings results, trouncing Wall Street’s expectations as its business continues to be buoyed by the pandemic-fueled surge in e-commerce activity.Bezos has accelerated his stock sales in recent years, previously unloading nearly $4.1 billion worth of shares last February. Bezos sold more than$3 billion worth of Amazon shares last November.The Amazon founder previously said he’d sell about $1 billion in Amazon stock each year to fund his space exploration company, Blue Origin, which continues to grow and on Wednesdayannouncedit will launch its first astronaut crew to space this summer. Bezos also earmarked additional capital for the Day One Fund, the organization he launched in September 2018 to provide education in low-income communities and combat homelessness. Last November, the fund awarded $98.5 million in grants to 32 groups.These initiatives are expected to become a greater focus for Bezos once he steps down in the third quarter. Bezos will turn the helm over to AWS CEO Andy Jassy and assume the role of executive chairman on Amazon’s board.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":105119365,"gmtCreate":1620276925857,"gmtModify":1704341229746,"author":{"id":"3579482809178950","authorId":"3579482809178950","name":"Dawang","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0f01f2346125f600328ffd48beb3a4c","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0a2963eb37c60c5d6d4a8dbcd266952","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Never wrong to take a profit&nbsp;[美金]&nbsp;","listText":"Never wrong to take a profit&nbsp;[美金]&nbsp;","text":"Never wrong to take a profit [美金]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/105119365","repostId":1139727517,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":105385106,"gmtCreate":1620270148305,"gmtModify":1704341116555,"author":{"id":"3580344868125116","authorId":"3580344868125116","name":"gum","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/990e3e89d27ba7bcacf0155983f3fa87","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"$2b that's a lot of $$$","listText":"$2b that's a lot of $$$","text":"$2b that's a lot of $$$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/105385106","repostId":1139727517,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4237884,"gmtCreate":1620271665036,"gmtModify":1680787235453,"authorId":3572005609122539,"author":{"id":3572005609122539,"authorId":3572005609122539,"name":"ngchris","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/76fa13deb76ef9b61305ed927b5c3290","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":105385106,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"True.
