The trading plan was established in November

This sale was made under a prearranged trading plan established by Bezos in November and disclosed earlier this month, allowing him to sell up to 50 million shares of Amazon stock by January 31, 2025. In addition to the 14 million shares sold this week, Bezos also sold about 12 million Amazon shares last week, worth about $2.03 billion, and has conducted similar sales in previous weeks. It’s worth noting that Bezos had not sold any company stock since stepping down as Amazon CEO in 2021.

Bezos has accelerated his stock sales pace since announcing in November last year that he would move from Seattle to Miami, one reason being to be closer to his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, his parents, and the operational base of Blue Origin, his aerospace company. Bezos has not disclosed plans for the use of the funds.
