For anyone keeping the Amazon still for a bookseller , this estimate is likely to be particularly surprising: the Morgan Stanley analyst Scott According to Devitt is due to the potential value of the company, especially in the area of ??”retail”, says: Amazon’s online mixture store of vegetables and diapers to refrigerators and (recently) works of art. Whopping $ 108 billion hard is this division, compared to an estimated $ 25 billion for IT services (AWS, “Amazon Web Services”), and $ 23 billion for the Kindle division. No wonder, because if it succeeds Amazon to become the new Walmart of the internet, there’s far more to earn more money than “only” with books. Although the disintermediation of total retail trade like through the online giants so far be an issue with us – the potential is there
.
least as much potential measures Scott Devitt but the range forwarding on – Amazon’s rapidly growing server farms and IT-based cloud services for startups, but also major players could catapult the company into the top 5 global provider says the analyst. The return on sales is at any rate the online trading of physical goods already appears clearly in the shadows – they should be at 10 percent. Is disintermediation in this area – ie the outsourcing of IT services, especially in Amazon’s Github – could AWS even be the most valuable pillar in the company. In other words, Amazon may have gotten their start with the online trading of (printed) books, since the mid-1990s was the perfect way to get started with the beginning Internet economy. But the medium term, the venerable Gutenberg galaxy represent only a rubble stone, the way to the world’s biggest “store for anything” bordered, along with greengrocers, electronics mar kets, galleries, oh and maybe newsagents
