Starship is still in development. Do you think the next generation of the iPhone is a waste of time because it doesn't make money yet?

The stock price reflects the potential of the business in the future as well as its current concrete value.

"It doesn't make money."

if that's the reason, why people invest in amazon then since Amazon literally need 20 years for that company to be profitable

because they are not targeting dividend that's why, they expect the exponential growth by re-investing profit to grow the business at scale

we literally live in YC subs where (almost)every startup isn't profitable either but VC still invest, I wonder why you write this
