”Bezos has to show continued dominance”....?

Please say that is a typo, surely it should say...

Bezos has shown continued dominance

Amazon is a huge conglomerate on a huge scope and scale. Bezos has built a book store into a Japanese style mega-corp.

AWS is killing it, Amazon.com is killing it, Prime is killing it, A9 is killing it, Whole is killing in....
