Diamond Member Pelican Press 0 Posted May 18, 2025 Diamond Member Share Posted May 18, 2025 This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up This Will Be Wall Street’s First $10 Trillion Company — And It’s Not Apple This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s two growth segments can help propel it to a $10 trillion market cap. Compared to other big tech competitors, it has more room to expand profit margins in the next decade. It will take a long time, but the math shows how This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s financials can support a $10 trillion valuation eventually. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Investors have been in love with Apple for a long time. It was the largest company in the world by market capitalization for many years, driven by the growth of the iPhone. Now, it has been eclipsed by competitors like This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up and Nvidia as Apple’s revenue growth slows in the face of rapid growth from these other technology players. While This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up and Nvidia are solid bets to reach a $10 trillion market cap, I think another big technology player will get there first: This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up (NASDAQ: AMZN). Its dual growth engines and profit margin expansion potential have the company poised to be the first stock to eclipse a $10 trillion valuation. Here’s why This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up — not Apple — will be the first stock to a $10 trillion market cap. Image source: Getty Images. What makes This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up special is its leading presence in two different sectors worth several hundred billion dollars, which will eventually grow into multitrillion-dollar opportunities. These are e-commerce and cloud computing. E-commerce is still less than 20% of retail sales in the United States and has steadily grown for many decades. There is no reason to think this growth trajectory will slow anytime soon. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s combined North America and international sales were more than $500 billion over the last 12 months. When considering the long-term tailwind of e-commerce adoption, growing GDP around the world, and inflation, I believe these segments will easily double and surpass $1 trillion in revenue, with plenty of room to still grow. Cloud computing is getting supercharged by artificial intelligence (AI), which is taking the industry, once thought to have a $1 trillion addressable market, to become much larger. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s cloud computing division, This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Web Services (AWS), is going to capture the majority of the company’s planned $100 billion in capital expenditures in 2025. Growing 17% year over year at $112 billion in revenue, I think AWS has a clear path to expand to $200 billion and eventually $300 billion in revenue over the next decade and beyond. What makes This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up a special case among the large technology players is the potential for great margin expansion at its increasingly large size. Over the last 12 months, This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up was 11% compared to This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s 45%. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s unit economics mean it will likely never reach a 45% profit margin, but there is much more room to grow compared to its cloud computing competitor. Story Continues AWS has an operating margin approaching 40% and is becoming a larger part of This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s business every year. Advertising, third-party seller services, and subscriptions are growing quickly at This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s retail segment. These will all be a rising tide to lift This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s profitability over the next 10 to 20 years. In the long run, I expect its operating margin to eclipse 20% due to the fast growth of these higher-margin segments. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up data by This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Whether it takes 10, 15, or 20 years, I think This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ’s combined revenue will eventually reach $2 trillion. Its competitors in big tech do not have the large addressable market afforded to This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up by dominating both e-commerce and cloud computing, which will limit revenue growth over the next 10 to 20 years. AI should supercharge growth in cloud computing over the next decade. $2 trillion in revenue and a 20% operating margin equates to $400 billion in operating earnings. A $10 trillion market cap versus $400 billion in earnings is an earnings ratio of 25, which is entirely reasonable for a company like This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up . Compared to other technology players, This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up has a much clearer revenue growth path to help it achieve the hundreds of billions of dollars in annual earnings needed to warrant this valuation. It may take over a decade, but This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up stock is my bet to be the first stock with a $10 trillion market value.
