AMAZON TO BUY WHOLE FOODS
David Brewster
So Amazon is buying Whole Foods. Does this mean, as this article argues, that Amazon wants to take over the whole world?
“The grocery stocks are down today, but they shouldn’t be the only companies trembling: Google, Apple, and even Uber are threatened by Amazon’s growing hold over e-commerce, media, and same-day home delivery.
“In short, Jeff Bezos wants to take over the world—and this is a very significant step in that direction.”
This might be an even bigger deal than it seems.
