Is Amazon Violating U.S. Antitrust Laws? This Law Student Has Evidence
But Shaoul Sussman, a law student at Fordham University, thinks he’s come up with a roadmap to prove that Amazon profitably engages in predatory pricing, overcoming Bork’s skepticism. Positive cash flow is often used as evidence against predatory pricing; if Amazon has negative cash flow, it could be subsidizing an anti-competitive scheme to edge out rivals. It could mean that Amazon knowingly sold items at a loss during its early history, and is now reducing costs on the same sales, while also taking a bite out of suppliers’ profits through marketplace fees.
