JUST IN: Jeff Bezos Loses $15.2B As Amazon Stock Plunges

I hope you don’t shed too many tears, but Jeff Bezos just lost $15.2 BILLION as the stock market absolutely PUKED on Friday.

Poof, gone!

Easy come, easy go I guess.

Here was the headline going viral on Twitter:

It was blood everywhere:

The joke is that CNBC’s Jim Cramer is wrong so much that whatever he says usually causes the opposite to happen….

So seeing this did not exactly help matters:

Jeff Bezos took a big hit in the shorts:

From SeekingAlpha:

A broader selloff in the tech sector has wiped off $134B from the fortunes of the world’s richest 500 people, including Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) founder Jeff Bezos, whose wealth plunged by $15.2B on Friday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Other tech billionaires, Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk and Oracle (ORCL) chairman Larry Ellison, also saw their wealth contract by $6.6B and $4.4B, respectively, as Nasdaq (COMP:IND) entered correction territory on weak economic data and disappointing financials from the “Magnificent 7.”

Amazon (AMZN) fell ~8.8%, its biggest intraday drop since April 2022, as the e-commerce giant indicated a disappointing outlook for the third quarter following a mixed quarterly report.

Meanwhile, Bezos witnessed the third-worst one-day drop in his wealth after April 4, 2019, and April 29, 2022, when AMZN sold off in reaction to his $38B divorce settlement with MacKenzie Bezos and a weak quarterly report from the company, respectively.

But that’s not really why I’m covering this story.

Jeff Bezos will be fine.

He still has hundreds of other billions.

What really fascinated me about this story is that Bezos seemed to see this coming.

Remember when I told you about this?

Remember I said it sure feels like someone knows something?

WOW!

Check this out:

BREAKING: Jeff Bezos Sells ANOTHER $863.5 Million of Amazon Stock!

BREAKING: Jeff Bezos Sells ANOTHER $863.5 Million of Amazon Stock!

No, this is not a reprint of an old article.

This is brand new breaking news that Jeff Bezos has just sold MORE Amazon stock.

A lot more....

$863.5 million more!

Take a look:

This is on the sales from last week that we recently reported on, making it $1.2 BILLION in the last WEEK alone:

Grok confirms:

Jeff Bezos, the founder and former CEO of Amazon, has sold $863.5 million worth of Amazon shares as part of a larger plan to sell 25 million shares. This recent sale represents about 20% of the total planned sale. Bezos has already sold over $8.3 billion worth of Amazon shares this year. Despite the sales, Bezos still holds approximately 912 million Amazon shares. The stock price of Amazon has been performing well, reaching an all-time high of $200.43 during the session and experiencing a 30% increase so far this year.

Here's the report I brought you just last week:

REPORT: Jeff Bezos Selling ANOTHER $5 Billion In Amazon Stock!

I always say: watch what they DO, not what they SAY....

And what "they" (the Wall Street insiders) are doing is Selling.

BIG LEAGUE.

It was just last year when we told you Jeff Bezos was selling $8.5 billion of Amazon stock:

Insider’s Selling (Part 1): Jeff Bezos Sells $8.5 BILLION of Amazon Stock

I'll republish that entire report down below in case you missed it.

But apparently times are tough and he needs some more "walking around money" because new reports say he is selling ANOTHER $5 billion!

Of course, maybe times aren't tough at all for Bezos....

The man has more money than he could spend in a lifetime.

But perhaps he just knows what is coming?

Perhaps he knows a 1929-level stock market crash is imminent?

What do you think?

Here was our original report from late last year (2023):

Insider's Selling (Part 1): Jeff Bezos Sells $8.5 BILLION of Amazon Stock

As always, never just listen to what they say....watch what they DO!

And just like Nancy Pelosi trading stocks, these insiders rarely lose.

I mean, why would they?

They set the rules, so when it's their game of course they're going to win.

And right now they're all flashing SELL in bright red letters.

Is that because they know it's a market top or close to it?

It makes you wonder.

This is going to be a 3-part series and we're starting with Amazon's Jeff Bezos.

Jeff Bezos isn't really hard up for cash, but he just sold $8.5 BILLION worth of stock -- yes, that's Billion with a B:

Talk about raising some serious cash!

From the BBC:

Multi-billionaire Jeff Bezos has sold another 14 million Amazon shares, worth around $2.4bn (£1.9bn).

The latest sale brings the total number of shares he has sold in the firm over the last nine trading days to about 50 million, with a value of around $8.5bn.

The tech giant had previously said Mr Bezos would sell up to 50 million shares by the end of January 2025.

His sales of Amazon stock comes after they have risen by more than 76% in the past year.

Mr Bezos, who is the firm's founder and executive chair, had previously last sold Amazon shares in 2021.

He has also given away shares in Amazon as part of his philanthropy, most recently in 2022.

As Mr Bezos moved to Miami in Florida from Seattle in Washington last year, he will save almost $600m in tax on the $8.5bn worth of stock he has sold.

Gains above $250,000 from the sale of shares or other long term investments, are taxed at 7% in Washington state. Florida does not have state taxes on incomes or capital gains.

However, he will still be liable to federal taxes as a result of selling the shares.

When Mr Bezos announced his move to Florida it prompted speculation over whether it was because of a potential tax bill he would have faced in Washington after the state approved a new tax on large stock sales.

Mr Bezos said in November that his parents had recently moved back to Miami where he spent some of his childhood and that he wanted to be close to them and to his Blue Origin space project, which was "increasingly shifting to Cape Canaveral".

"Lauren and I love Miami," he wrote on Instagram, referring to his fiancée Lauren Sánchez.

He did it in smaller chunks of $2 billion a piece.

I guess I should put "smaller" in quotes, because 2 Billion of anything isn't really small, is it?

Fox Business had more details on his latest round of selling:

The Amazon founder conducted the latest transactions involving nearly 12 million shares on Friday and Monday. They were disclosed in a Tuesday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The stocks amounted to about $2.08 billion.

Amazon informed investors earlier in February that Bezos had taken up a trading plan in November that would involve the sale of a maximum of 50 million shares by Jan. 25 of next year. The latest sales — and another set last week — were tied to that.

Prior to the stock sales disclosed Tuesday, Bezos had parted ways with roughly $2.04 billion worth of Amazon stock, another SEC filing showed.

Bezos, who relocated to Florida from Washington with his fiancée Lauren Sanchez, could see massive tax savings on stock sales in the Sunshine State compared to Washington, where he created the e-commerce giant. While neither state has an income tax, Washington recently implemented a 7% capital gains tax.

As usual, Patrick Bet-David has some of the best analysis out there.

Here's what PBD had to say:

By the way, I don't fault ANYONE for making money....as long as it's done legally and ethically.

And there's nothing to suggest Bezos hasn't done it above board.

So congrats to him!  Fantastic!

My only point is....is this the Market top?  Do people like Bezos tend to sell at the top or the bottom?

Look, I'm not a financial advisor, but if you'd like to get out of stocks and into something SAFER for your retirement, may I suggest that Gold has ALWAYS been God's money?

Gold has never failed, it was money in the Bible and it's still money today.

And a store of value.

If you're looking for safe, grab this free Guide from my friends over at Genesis -- I love what these guys do!

How One 12-Page Pamphlet Tells the Story of God, Gold and Glory

When you first start learning about gold as an investment, it’s easy to get overwhelmed.

Should you choose Gold ETFs, pooled accounts, individual accounts...

Or, maybe you should just buy gold outright. There are websites that'll sell gold with a huge markup, and even pawn shops that sell gold around the corner from your favorite taco stand.

If you're new to buying gold, you first need a trusted resource to lay out the plain facts. You need to know a brief history, why gold works, and the options available to you.

Thankfully, there’s a new, easy-to-read guidebook that’s opening minds and growing investment accounts.

Genesis Gold is offering a free guide that has everything you need to learn about investing in gold and other precious metals.

In just a short, 12-page read, you’ll learn what clues the Bible gives about man-made money (paper currency). You’ll even learn the three simple steps to investing in metals like gold.

And, you’ll also get a quick tutorial on:

  • Which precious metals are approved by the IRS

  • The different forms of gold, silver and other precious metals - coins, ingots, bars

  • Why the symbology (i.e. olive branches) matters on gold coins

  • Why there are different sized measurements of gold coins and bars

  • And a stunning innovation made by the Swiss

Genesis Gold is giving you the tools to make your own decisions. Instead of trusting in fly-by-night investment opportunities, or Wall Street lies, you can learn the long-term strategy that has worked since Moses.

As it says in Ezekiel 28:4 - By your wisdom and understanding you have gained wealth for yourself and amassed gold and silver in your treasuries.

Gold and Silver: "No one wants to sell at these make believe prices"

I've been telling you for a long time now that Gold and Silver are vastly undervalued.

I'm not a financial advisor and I can't tell you what to do, but I can look at historical data and I can easily see that the current price of Gold and Silver makes no sense unless....it's being manipulated.

Now who would want to do that?

And the more important question: will it go on forever, or do the manipulators eventually release the stretched rubber band and ride an explosion up?

I've you've been paying attention in life, you know the answer.

You know these crooks on Wall Street manipulate things down, ⭐️ then they load their boats, then they manipulate them up into a bubble.

Where are we in that process right now for commodities like Gold and Silver?

Right exactly where I placed that star up above.

⭐️ = You Are Here

The Big Boys are loading their boats.

But that's not just my opinion.

I'm a nobody.

Listen to Andy Schectman who is an expert on these things and he lays it out PERFECTLY in two minutes.

Here's my rough paraphrase:

"A concerted effort by the very powerful to use the suppression of commodities (gold, silver, but also a long list of all other commodities)...these countries are not complaining about suppressed low prices yet because they're accumulating!  But once it becomes obvious that the availability of these commodities is very scarce and no one wants to sell at these "make believe prices" then the public says "OMG, what have we been missing?"  And maybe that all happens in concert with a breakdown of the banking system, then the public says "give it to me now" and that's when you'll see the circuit breakers be put into affect.  But at that point it's too late."

Oh my!

It's so much better to listen to him explain it in his own words.

It's just 2 minutes long.

Watch here (as presented by my friend the Digital Asset Investor):

But it's not just Andy either.

It's this latest interview over at SGT Report.

Sean does such a great job over there of interviewing people on topics the MSM doesn't want you to see, and his latest is called "$1,000 Silver -- Seriously, Stop Laughing".

There's actually a lot of history that goes into that quote and this was a great discussion by four very smart individuals.

Watch here:

I've been sounding the alarm for a while now...

Have you taken action?

As always, there's one thing I always say and it's never been proven wrong:  Watch what they DO, not what they SAY.

Who is "they"?

The same people Andy Schectman was talking about.

Big Governments.

Central Banks all over the world.

Big Business.

What are they doing?

They are LOADING THEIR BOATS with as much Gold and Silver as they can find and they're laughing all the way to the bank because they're buying at what Andy says are "make believe prices".

Are you?

After the Great Financial Crash of 2008, I made a decision.

From that point forward, I would simply do what the Big Boys were doing.

I would simply watch what they're doing and copy it.

Oh, and if they had Jim Cramer telling people the OPPOSITE (i.e. Cramer says Gold is a loser, but the Central Banks are buying with both fists) that was usually the perfect confirmation I needed.

So that's been my strategy since 2008 and it's worked very well for me.

Here's more....

Here's Why Banks Are Buying Up All of the Gold

I've got Jordan Peterson and Peter Schiff in a fascinating conversation about the Value of Gold.

And it's not just some academic debate.

This could very soon be one of the most important things in your world when the U.S. Dollar crashes and gets its value cut in half....or worse.

These guys know what they're talking about and this short 8 minute clip is definitely worth your time to watch.

I always say this: don't listen to what the "Elites" tell you....watch what they are DOING.

And what are they doing?

Stacking gold and silver.

As much as they can get their hands on.

Look, I hope I'm wrong but I think we're in for a massive event that is going to destroy bank accounts and destroy the U.S. Dollar.

So what happens to YOU when that happens?

Watch this and then scroll down for how I can help you stay safe right now....

Watch:

So, what can YOU do to protect yourself?

To protect your family?

To stay safe?

Simple: you need to get some #Gold or #Silver in your own possession.

It's called "physical" gold and silver.

Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn't backed by anything.

Don't touch that stuff.

I have two special hook-ups for you.

Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver.

Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own "physical" gold and silver, not paper contracts.

The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent.

It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on.

And I know you'll never forget it if I give you this GIF so....Let's Get Physical:

Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe?

And that you're getting the best price?

Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service?

You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help?

That's what I'm about to tell you.  

I have two killer connections for you...

The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion.

That means bulk bars.

That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible.

The website is called WLT Precious Metals and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner, you'll know you're in the right place.

You'll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of.

How about that!

You don't see that much anymore, but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service:

No sales pitch, just real, actual help.

And the best prices you will find.

Here's the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service, it might take a few days before you get a phone call back.  Just be patient.

Good things come to those who wait!

You can contact Ira and WLT Precious Metals here.

Ok, that was #1.

Now I want to tell you about option #2.

An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys.

This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts).

You know what the beauty of that is?

TAX FREE baby!

I'm not a tax advisor, but that's a general oversimplification.

Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay.

And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!).

There's so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina!

They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel:

Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver –
The Genesis Gold IRA

By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4

Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess.

Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy.

Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times.

With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA.

Sincerely,

Genesis Gold Group

Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship

Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do.

You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you!

I love what these guys are doing.

Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful:

You can contact Genesis Gold here.

They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance!

Tell 'em Noah sent ya!

Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself?

It's true.

Superman himself, Clark Kent -- Dean Cain -- came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down:

Watch here:

Stay safe!

Make sure you can weather the storm when it hits!

Because the storm always hits eventually, doesn't it?

As for me and my house, we will be ready. 💪
