Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has picked a date to step down as CEO.<\/p>\n

Bezos, who grew Amazon from an internet bookstore to an online shopping behemoth, said Wednesday that Amazon executive Andy Jassy will take over the CEO role on July 5.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe chose that date because it\u2019s sentimental for me,\u201d Bezos said during an Amazon shareholder meeting Wednesday. He explained that it was exactly 27 years ago on that date in 1994 that Amazon was incorporated.<\/p>\n

Seattle-based Amazon.com Inc.\u00a0announced\u00a0that Bezos was stepping down as CEO in February, but didn\u2019t provide a specific date. Jassy, his replacement, currently runs the company\u2019s cloud-computing business.<\/p>\n

Bezos, 57 and with a personal fortune of $167 billion, won\u2019t be going far. He will become executive chair at Amazon and focus on new products and initiatives. He also plans to focus on his other ventures, such as his rocket ship company, Blue Origin, and his news<\/a>paper, The Washington Post.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Amazon also\u00a0announced\u00a0it would buy storied Hollywood studio MGM for $8.45 billion with the hopes of filling its video streaming service with more shows and movies<\/a> to watch.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
