This loyalty is reflected not only in repeat purchases, but also in growing revenue. 📊
After a down year with market indices 2022 with Amazon recovered quickly and reached new all-time highs this year. The company has focused on improving inventory management and reorganizing its centers, leading to faster delivery speeds and lower costs. 📦🚚

Amazon has also significantly improved its free cash flow, which has reached nearly $53 billion over the past year, a key indicator of the company's financial health. 💵📈 In addition, the company's operating profit in the second quarter was up nearly doubled in the fourth quarter, thanks to growth in non-retail segments such as AWS cloud services and sponsored advertising.

What companies would you include in your long-term portfolio? And what is your opinion of these two companies?
$AMZN will definitely be around for a long time as they are a great company and are constantly innovating. $NFLX will be around for a long time too, but the question is how that whole sector will fare and whether they will be able to continue to bring something new.
Great two companies, thanks again for the nice information. 😊 Can I just ask, where do you draw the most from? ...because there's an awful lot on the web. Otherwise, I'd love to have both companies, but unfortunately I've been "researching" here ...my purchases have been successful elsewhere below, so it seems "too late" to enter here at current prices. Of course, in the long run, I guess price doesn't matter because especially $AMZN but also $NFLX have a great market position. They have unrivaled properties right now. I see more room for even more growth with Amazon, but as I said, I wish I could enter somewhere around the $150-160 price point😊.
