[Amazon has eclipsed Microsoft as the
world's most valuable listed company
as volatile markets reshuffle
Wall Street's pecking order.
The change happened on Monday
as shares in the online retail giant
rose 3%, lifting its market
value to $797bn (£624bn).
Microsoft also rose, but by less than
1%, leaving its value at $784bn (£614bn).
It is the first time that
Amazon - founded by Jeff Bezos in 1994 - has held
the top spot and ends Microsoft's
brief return to the number
one position after it surpassed
Apple late in November.]

Well done Jeff.
