Just how big is Amazon?
 

Infographic: Just how big is Amazon? - TechSpot News

Holy cow!

There so big But They are definetly corrupt And hiding it for now until someone starts to look into them..

They are doing close to $40 billion dollars per year in revenue, but only about $1 billion dollars per year in profits. Amazon also has one of the most powerful data centers in the world.

Amazon has averaged a 4.4% profit margin over the last 5 years. Actually, that is pretty good for a business their size.

Generaly speaking, the larger a business grows, the lower their profit margins become.

And, Amazon invests a TON of money back into their business. They tend to think more in the long term. And it has paid off for them. They have 10% of the e-commerce pie in North America, which is HUGE. They are to ebooks what Apple is to music. And their web services division provides services to a lot of companies, including many in the Fortune 500.

They are going to be around for quite awhile.

Who can account for the billions they make from 3Ps?

If ron paul gets in there will be changes across the us for sure. All in a good way.

Consider Amazon does just about most forms of major ecommerance services, those numbers really don't suprise me much.

Not surprised at all, I own amazon stock and will forever be a loyal amazon customer. This year alone I've made like 100+ orders with them. Hard to beat free 2 day shipping, and competitive prices.

Fantastic prices, overnight shipping for 3.99, no other store/site even compares to amazon. Oh I forgot NO TAX! at least 70% of my day is spent on amazon..
