In this piece, we will take a look at the ten e commerce stocks billionaires are loading up on. For more stocks, head on over to 5 E-commerce Stocks Billionaires Are Loading Up On.

One of the biggest industries that has grown along with the Internet is electronic commerce. Digital platforms have removed the need for buyers to physically go to markets and inspect products before making a buying decision. Instead, all they have to do is use their smartphone or computer and visit a website to scour through countless products and merchants to make an informed decision.

Naturally, this makes the electronic commerce industry one of the biggest in the world. In fact, along with consumer technology, it is one of the few new sectors that have produced behemoth companies with unprecedented size. For example, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), the world’s biggest ecommerce company, is one of the few companies in the world that is worth more than a trillion dollars. Its founder Jeff Bezos’s stake in Amazon makes him worth a whopping $147 billion as of June 2023 according to Forbes Magazine – also making him the third richest person in the world. Another billionaire associated with the electronic commerce industry is Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA). Alibaba is worth $250 billion in market capitalization, and Mr. Ma is worth a cool $23.6 billion – enough money to last several lifetimes.

So, what is the electronic commerce industry worth? Well, a research report from Research and Markets outlines that the market was worth a whopping $16.6 trillion in 2022 and, despite this absolutely massive size, it is expected to grow at a stunning compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.38% between 2022 and 2028 to be worth an unbelievable $70 trillion by the end of the forecast period. The research firm believes that there are a variety of factors that will drive its growth. These include growth in urbanization leading to higher living standards, a younger population more predisposed to use technology in their daily lives, and the simple convenience offered by placing an order online.

At the same time, online retailing or e-commerce isn’t simply related to groceries or merchandise or platforms that carry all kinds of products. In fact, there are several subsets of the market. One of these is the healthcare e-commerce industry. According to estimates from Medgadget, the global healthcare e-commerce market was worth $156 billion in 2018 and is expected to more than double in size until 2025 to sit at an estimated $435.8 billion. Within the market, North America holds the highest market share which stood at 40% in 2018.

Another major e-commerce market is the food and beverages industry. After all, long gone are the days when you had to actually go to a restaurant to buy food. Now, everything is available through numerous applications in the palm of your hand. Taking a look at the monetary value of this market, The Business Research Company believes that this market was worth $46.72 billion in 2021 and is expected to sit at $57 billion by the end of this year after growing at a CAGR of 22.2%. This growth rate is expected to sit at a respectable 17.6% between 2023 and 2026 for a final market value of the food and beverages e-commerce market of $109 billion.

The ecommerce industry is now talking about the next wave coming to the sector. This wave requires expanding focus on the sector and looking at it as more than a ‘bolt on’ extension, believes the consulting firm, McKinsey. McKinsey believes that this requires firms to operate independently of channels and instead create an agnostic experience that is capable of fulfilling the customer’s orders wherever and whenever needed. Another strategy that can enable companies to enhance their e-commerce offering is to ensure that all of the customers’ needs and concerns about a product are addressed instead of just selling the product and then forgetting about it. This particular bit also makes intuitive sense, since while on the one hand e-commerce provides the consumer with the ability to easily sort through all kinds of products, on the other, it does not provide an opportunity to physically inspect or test the goods in order to make a comfortable purchase. This is particularly important since the average return rate for e-commerce products can go as high as 30%.

Finally, in the midst of the current turbulence in the economy, it’s important to look at what the e-commerce firms themselves think is in store for the rest of this year. On this front, the management of Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) shared during the firm’s earnings conference for the first quarter of 2023:

For the first quarter, our worldwide net sales were $127.4 billion, up 9% year-over-year, or 11% excluding approximately 210 basis points of unfavorable impact from changes in foreign exchange rates. This was above the top end of our guidance range. Overall, we are pleased with the growth that we’re seeing in worldwide stores businesses, including quarter-over-quarter revenue acceleration in the International segment, which is helped by easing macroeconomic pressures in Europe. Across the geographies we serve, customers appreciate our focus on staying sharp on pricing, having strong selection and easier convenience, including delivery speeds, which continued to improve throughout the first quarter.

That said, the uncertain economic environment and ongoing inflationary pressures continue to be a factor, and we believe it’s continuing to drive cautious spending across consumers. This means our customers are looking to stretch their budgets further and are focused on value. We saw moderated spending on discretionary categories as well as shifts to lower-priced items and healthy demand in everyday essentials, such as consumables and beauty. Third-party sellers, including businesses who elect to utilize Fulfillment by Amazon for their storage and shipping services are a key contributor to the selection offered to customers. We also continued to invest meaningfully in brand protection efforts, including industry-leading technology, so that sellers can trust we will provide a great selling experience free from bad actors.

So, are there any e-commerce stocks that billionaires are loading up on despite an inflationary environment? Seems to be the case and some top picks are MercadoLibre, Inc. (NASDAQ:MELI), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), and Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA).

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

Published on October 6, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

175 Teslas
107 Amazons
140 Metas
84 Googles
65 Microsofts
And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on October 5, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

The AI infrastructure supercycle
The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
A surge in U.S. LNG exports
And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.

Dive into the AI gold rush and watch your portfolio soar alongside the brightest minds of our generation.

This isn’t just about making money – it’s about being part of the future.
