Every one repeats this same headline in the same way, and it kind of annoys me. It strongly implies that profits are now 0.05 x 0.05 of what they were, but it's really just one 0.05. They were very profitable, and now they are not, but it's not a continuing decline from last quarter.

Just tell me that last year profits were 11B, and now they're 0.5B. And here it is: https://www.statista.com/statistics/237093/samsungs-operating-profit-quarterly-figures/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/237093/samsungs-operatin...
