How did Amazon "show" that?
Amazon's bottom line might not have been that great, but most of the difference from the top-line regularly consisted of dumping money into expenditures in areas that were pushing huge revenue growth.
It seems like people are suggesting analysts are dumb and didn't really dig beyond a basic top-line vs bottom-line glance when discussing Amazon's business model.
- solidasparagus 6y ago> regularly consisted of dumping money into expenditures in areas that were pushing huge revenue growth Why do you say this? I find it unlikely that building out 2-day delivery was a major short-term driver of revenue. It was developing their moat. Similarly, building out a fulfillment service that directly cannibalized existing business was not a short-term revenue generator.
