More Mergers and Acquisitions for Amazon in 2018?

The Trump administration has allowed a one-time repatriation of overseas cash for corporations. Many analysts believe this may be an opportunity for Amazon in 2018 in terms of acquisitions and mergers. The new legislation would allow Amazon $26 billion of overseas cash to be used for future acquisitions.

According to a recent article from TheStreet.  Costco, Target, Ulta Beauty Inc., Wayfair, and Sears Holding Corp’s appliance division are just a few of the names on the list of potential moves.
