In its Q3 2023 investor letter, White Falcon Capital Management, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) was one of them. Here is what the fund said: 

“There are comparable narratives involving NU Holdings, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), and Teck Resources, to name a few holdings from the White Falcon portfolio. Amazon constructed its logistics network and cloud computing infrastructure using yesterday’s currency, but it is poised to capitalize on this network with the inflated dollars of tomorrow. In essence, we believe we hold wonderful businesses with growing revenue streams and potential for operating leverage – all at reasonable valuations.”
