This sounds right but it's not trivial to show that one piece of the business is profitable. Accounting isn't that simple, and to a degree the investors simply have to believe the story. I'm not saying you can't have an amazon type situation where indeed profits are sunk into new investment, but surely not every firm claiming this is actually doing this.

But I can't discern which of these are doing this to their peril and which are effectively following the Amazon story and will come out of this successful.
