And then there were three: Google, Facebook, and Apple. 

Amazon just tanked.
Shares of Amazon.com Inc. fell Thursday after the e-commerce retailer reported a deeper-than-expected second quarter loss as expenses outpaced a surge in revenue.
Amazon has long focused on spending the money it makes to grow and expand into new areas. In one of its most high-profile moves, Amazon is introducing its own smartphone, the Fire, which starts selling Friday.
The company has been heavily investing in services for its loyalty program, Prime, which costs $99 a year, and includes free two-day shipping on many items. It has added a grocery delivery services and music streaming for Prime Members as well as offering original TV shows and apps. It also expanded Sunday deliveries and recently began offering a set-top video streaming box.
Amazon reported second-quarter revenues of $19.34 billion, right in line with analyst expectations according to Thomson Reuters and a 23% increase year-over-year.
However, Amazon lost 27 cents per share, much worse than consensus, which modeled a loss of 15 cents per share.
Net sales increased 23% year-over-year. In the first quarter, the Seattle-based online retailer earned 23 cents a share on $19.74 billion in revenue and net sales increased 23% year-over-year.
The operating loss was $15 million this quarter, compared with $146 million in the first quarter and an operating income of $79 million a year ago. Net loss was $126 million, or 27 cents per share, compared with $7 million, or 2 cents per share, in the second quarter 2013.
[Some hours later, when re-reading this story -- I just can't get too excited about this. Jeff Bezos continues to pour money into the company. Everyone knew that Amazon was going to report a loss this quarter, and the loss was much worse that expected, but it's not like everyone expected a huge profit, only to be surprised by a loss. This, too, shall pass and Amazon will do just fine.]
