AMZN is just doing the reverse of what Bos Chik did- great execution, commmodity product. the end result will be the same, obviously.

We order all the time from AMZN, because we know they are losing so much $$, they are obviously selling well below true cost. We will be sad when amzn is gone; we will have to pay fair value somewhere else!

>>AOL still has an accumulated tax-loss carryforward balance of around 400 million dollars, so technically they've never made a dime of profit

technically their cumulative profits are less than zero

Aren't some of the tax loss carryforwards from acquired companies?
