在線零售商亞馬遜市值突破萬(wàn)億美元

Amazon.com Inc last Tuesday briefly joined Apple Incto become the second $1 trillion publicly listed US company after its stock price more than doubled in a year as it grew rapidly in retail and cloud computing.

上周二，在線零售商亞馬遜盤中市值突破1萬(wàn)億美元，成為繼蘋果之后美國(guó)第二家市值達(dá)萬(wàn)億美元的上市公司。隨著亞馬遜在零售和云計(jì)算領(lǐng)域的迅速發(fā)展，其股價(jià)在一年內(nèi)上漲了一倍有余。

Its shares traded as high as $2,050.50 before easing a little to end the session at $2,039.51, up 1.3%.

當(dāng)日，亞馬遜股價(jià)最高升至2050.50美元，隨后小幅回落，終盤收?qǐng)?bào)2039.51美元，上漲1.3%。

If the online retailer's shares keep up their recent pace, it would be a matter of when, not if, Amazon's stock market valuation eclipses that of iPhone maker Apple, which reached $1 trillion on Aug 2.

如果股價(jià)延續(xù)近期上漲步伐，亞馬遜市值超越iPhone制造商蘋果只是時(shí)間問(wèn)題。蘋果在8月2日觸及萬(wàn)億美元市值大關(guān)。

Apple took almost 38 years as a public company to achieve the trillion dollar milestone, while Amazon got there in 21 years.

蘋果上市后花了近38年時(shí)間才實(shí)現(xiàn)市值萬(wàn)億美元，而亞馬遜只用了21年。

While Apple's iPhone and other devices remain popular and its revenues are growing, it is not keeping up with Amazon's blistering sales growth.

盡管蘋果的iPhone和其他設(shè)備依然很受歡迎，營(yíng)收也在不斷增長(zhǎng)，但仍舊是趕不上亞馬遜強(qiáng)勁的銷售增長(zhǎng)速度。

Amazon has impressed investors by diversifying into virtually every corner of the retail industry, altering how consumers buy products and putting big pressure on many brick-and-mortar stores.

亞馬遜在零售業(yè)幾乎在每個(gè)角落都實(shí)現(xiàn)了多元化，改變了消費(fèi)者的購(gòu)買方式，并給許多實(shí)體店鋪施加巨大壓力，給投資者留下了深刻的印象。

"It says a lot about Amazon and its ever-increasing dominance of segments of the retailing world as well as the web services business," said Peter Tuz, President Of Chase Investment Counsel In Charlottesville, Virginia. "They have a tiny share of the worldwide retail sales market so there's a lot left to capture there."

弗吉尼亞州夏洛茨維爾大通投資顧問(wèn)總裁皮特·圖茲表示：“這說(shuō)明亞馬遜及其在零售業(yè)和網(wǎng)絡(luò)服務(wù)業(yè)務(wù)領(lǐng)域日益增長(zhǎng)的主導(dǎo)地位。他們?cè)谌蛄闶凼袌?chǎng)占有的市場(chǎng)份額很小，因此還有很大的提升空間。”

Analysts expect Apple's revenue to jump 14.9% in its fiscal year ending in September, according to Thomson Reuters data, a hefty rise but still far short of Amazon's expected revenue growth of 32% for 2018.

湯森路透的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，分析師預(yù)計(jì)在截至9月的本財(cái)年蘋果營(yíng)收將增長(zhǎng)14.9%，這一增幅相當(dāng)高，但仍然遠(yuǎn)低于亞馬遜2018年32%的預(yù)期營(yíng)收增幅。
