For a long time this game is not about any profit as in "gain some revenue with real labour creating and selling real things people need". Not even close. It is about stocks gambling, nothing more. All this investments is only about gambling on the stocks market in the hope to sell stocks to vegetables timely, just before the crash, or sell company to some BigCorp for billions, in the exactly same game of BigCorps who will then announce Great Purchase of Very Promising Business, their stocks will jump and very special people will make their money. Then, when everybody will forget, with high probability this business, purchased for billions, will be just silently closed or dissolved in this BigCorp swamp.
Who the hell need to make or create anything real and useful when you have stock exchanges?
If you like, assume "profit" in similar questions about overhyped things is nothing more that personal profit of stock gamblers, and then everything become very clear and simple.
