Joshua Kushner’s venture firm, Thrive Capital, buys about $215 million worth of Amazon.com shares, according to a regulatory disclosure reported by multiple outlets. The stake is built through purchases of publicly traded Amazon shares.
The Next Web frames the move as part of Thrive Capital’s broader shift toward investing in public companies. The report also notes the timing alongside Thrive Capital telling investors it is selling part of its OpenAI-related stake, highlighting an active period of portfolio adjustments. Separately, Bloomberg presents the transaction primarily as an incremental expansion of Thrive’s public-market investing.
Across the coverage, the core facts are consistent: Thrive Capital discloses and has acquired roughly $215 million in Amazon shares. The outlets differ mainly in how they situate the purchase within Thrive’s wider strategy and other near-term portfolio actions, rather than disputing the size or nature of the Amazon stake.
