How to invest like Jeff Bezos
How to invest like Jeff Bezos
Bezos' success with his portfolio is proof that investing fundamentals work for everyone, including famous investors and one of the richest people in the world. Here are a few important tips you can follow to invest like Jeff Bezos:
- Build a diversified portfolio.
- Be a long-term investor.
- Invest in modern, cutting-edge companies.
Now, let's take a closer look at that advice and how Bezos has applied it to his own investments.
Build a diversified portfolio
The first thing that jumps out about Bezos's investment portfolio is how diverse it is. It's heavy on technology companies, but even those companies don't all occupy the same niche. Bezos has invested in social networks, real estate platforms, sports media, education, and much more. This gives him exposure to a range of industries.
One of the oldest pieces of investing wisdom is not to put all your eggs in one basket. Your portfolio should have a variety of companies, typically 25 to 30, across several industries. This gives you a better chance of picking a big winner that outperforms the market, and your portfolio won't be overly reliant on any single company or market sector.
Be a long-term investor
Bezos invests in companies for the long haul. Several of his current positions are companies he first invested in five to 10 years ago or longer. He has also invested multiple times in some companies, and he has stuck with investments through ups and downs.
As an investor, it's always important to take a big-picture perspective. This is especially true during market volatility, like in 2025. When you invest your money, buy companies that you plan to hold for at least five years, and don't let a market downturn cause you to panic sell.
Invest in modern, cutting-edge companies
What's interesting about Bezos' portfolio is his recent shift toward investing in companies that cater to the younger generation. Realworld helps users navigate adulthood. Overtime's target market is Gen Z sports fans. Save Trees focuses on sustainability, which has proven to be particularly important for young consumers.
Consider investing in companies designed for a younger audience. As Gen Z and millennials build their buying power, companies that cater to them could end up being great growth stocks.
