Reply to comment by NoxicRox in Amazon may have to turn to SpaceX for help launching its Starlink rival service by Soupjoe5
Which investor is willing to sink $1B for 0 marginal profits? No one is going to do all that work launching satellites to make your internet cheaper.
Service providers compete by differentiating their offerings, not their prices. Consumers are often willing to pay a lot more for a service provider that meets their demands. Bezos earned his AWS money doing exactly that - there are plenty competitors that may be 10x cheaper.

Through an investors standpoint, the business is actually operating at its efficiency point when marginal profit is equal to $0.
When marginal profit is equal to $0, marginal revenue equals marginal costs, which would indicate the production point where profits would be maximized.
As an investor, you don’t want to see money that’s stagnant, you want the firms you invested into to maximize profits at any given point in time.
What you said completely goes against microeconomic principles. With that said, I’m convinced you have no idea what you’re talking about lol
