So Bezos safeguarding his own wealth is not an indicator of anything? And it being small in compression to the size of the American economy is relevant in what way?
Bezos getting a small cash infusion in exchange for a small portion of his stocks means nothing.
The post is trying to stoke alarm by showing Bezos' behavior as an indicator for concern (given his company's significant power and influence on the economy and the fact that he is effectively the leader of it and as someone who might have inside knowledge on things like this).
What you're saying makes literally no sense in either case. If things were actually going to collapse, he (or Amazon) would make far bigger actions than this, and it would be a lot more tangible.
Stocks are inherently more risky than American currency because no single company comes anywhere close to the stability of the American Dollar, on top of most stocks being understood in terms of the American Dollar to begin wtih.
If he wanted to put his assets somewhere that they could actually be safeguarded from volatility, it would be in things like real estate, personal military hardware/forces, or some kind of scarce physical asset that retains its value like precious metals.

I'm sorry. Is this an I.Q test?
Er... if it is, I assume you fail then.

You asked, I answered. And now the acrobatics and gymnastics commence. I gave a relevant point. You did not.
Answered what?
You said he's "safeguarding his wealth"... by keeping the vast majority of stock that he already possessed?
So he's basically keeping things business as usual with a small adjustment, and that's supposed to mean anything?
