Amazon tops $3 trillion market cap as stock continues post-earnings surge

Amazon crossed the $3 trillion market capitalization threshold for the first time Monday as shares hit an all-time high, extending gains following last week's earnings beat. The milestone makes AMZN the fifth U.S. company to reach the $3 trillion mark.

The rally builds on momentum from Amazon's fourth-quarter earnings report, which topped analyst expectations across key metrics. The stock has surged in the days since the February 6 print, pushing the e-commerce and cloud giant into rarefied valuation territory alongside Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Alphabet.

Monday's session marks a continuation of the post-earnings move, with investors rewarding Amazon's latest quarterly performance. The $3 trillion valuation cements the company's position among the mega-cap tech names driving broader market gains.

The move higher comes as Amazon benefits from strength in its AWS cloud division and sustained demand across its retail operations, both highlighted in last week's report.
