And it is in this context that I propose to compare Alibaba (BABA) and Amazon (AMZN).\nIn my calculation, I used the monthly total price return since October 2014 - the day BABA started trading.\nLet's start with basic parameters.\nThe first thing that catches your eye is that Amazon's distribution of returns is close to the normal distribution.

Amazon's arithmetic mean monthly return is&nbsp;almost double&nbsp;that of Alibaba. However, Amazon showsless risk: its value of standard deviation is lower:\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b431203cbd9149933147af7a14d484a\" tg-width=\"903\" tg-height=\"216\">Source: Author\nAmazon's semi-deviation (a measure of the fluctuation in returns below the mean) is also lower. At that, the&nbsp;coefficient of variation&nbsp;of AMZN's return is lower than that of BABA. This means that for each percent of Amazon's average return, there is less risk than for that of Alibaba.In other words, Amazon's higher average return comes with relatively low risk.The perfect combination!\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a53f2214998b792eb8173ce59b9d139d\" tg-width=\"904\" tg-height=\"214\">Source: Author\nLet's take a look at deeper parameters. Median and arithmetic mean of monthly returns of Amazon are very close to each other, which indicates the symmetry of the distribution of returns. In addition, Amazon's distribution of returns demonstrates positive&nbsp;skewness&nbsp;and&nbsp;excess kurtosis&nbsp;equal to 4.04. This means that, firstly, Amazon's returns tend to deviate toward the positive side relative to the average values and, secondly, in comparison with a normal distribution (excess kurtosis of the normal distribution equals 3),the actual distribution of AMZN's returns is more concentrated around the average value.\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cd58cbc0c931ad35b4a35a0fa02acd9c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\">Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com\nIf you are confused, these graphs allow you to clearly understand the essence of these parameters:\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88276a4abeb873ef5892f529ba5213f9\" tg-width=\"415\" tg-height=\"234\">Source: justusjp.medium.com\nNow let's take a look at Alibaba:\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31088336e52f005271215eaa32d2f3fb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\">Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com\nHere is a similar situation, but it loses to Amazon. Median and arithmetic mean are close to each other. The positive skewness also is present, and excess kurtosis is 3.37.But both are lower than those of Amazon.\nNow let's take a look at the history of companies' annual total price returns. In Amazon's case, we have a lower standard deviation limit above zero:\n<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/483c2827288788cd7f987ef12bfee9b7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\">Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com\nIn the case of Alibaba, the situation is worse.

Both companies are far from their quantitative and qualitative growth limits. At the same time, both companies have their own risks. In the case of Alibaba, it's a sovereign risk. In the case of Amazon, these are risks associated with its size and market share. And at the moment, these risks are difficult to compare.\nI understand that the analysis performed is based on historical data. And the future won't necessarily be the same. But at the same time, one cannot deny the presence of inertia both in physics and in the field of human psychology, which determines the behavior of financial markets. Therefore, it is highly probable that a similar analysis will show approximately the same results in a decade. Therefore, at the moment, I am of the opinion that investing in Amazon is less risky compared to Alibaba Group.","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon Vs.
