Meet an E-Commerce Player Beating Amazon at Its Own Game

If you went back and told someone in 1995 that we'd have a pandemic where many people didn't leave the house for months, and yet still have their basic needs met, there'd be a lot of confusion. Clearing up the situation would involve diving into how Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) completely revolutionized the shopping experience. We take for granted that we can order something on our phone and see it on our doorstep 24 hours later.

That said, there's a company out there doing an even better job at providing superior e-commerce convenience: Coupang (NYSE: CPNG) -- which aims to be the "Amazon of South Korea." It has quickly become a much-talked-about international stock.

But that level of convenience alone isn't enough to form an investment thesis. In this July 7th video recapping their hour-long deep dive into the company, Motley Fool contributors Brian Feroldi and Brian Stoffel give the bull and bear case for investing in Coupang.
