Has Amazon ever made a profit? I know TI use to. Heck, they actually made things, too. Those were weird times, eh?; making things that you sold to make profits. Now you just sell hype, and profits are what traders make.
Amazon has made a profit every year since 2002. The last few years they've been around $1B/year in earnings before interest and taxes.
I believe Amazon is the second biggest retailer in the world... and without a single brick and mortar store.
