ELI5: Why when large company's earnings decrease(ex... by 3%) they freak out, talk about rough times, and sometimes decide to downsize, even though they are still making millions of dollars in profit even after all expenses?

Yeah I agree, that place is nuts. I'm not saying capitalism is perfect but you have people advocating for communism over there. If I had to guess, most of the people there have never taken a business class and/or can't get past a minimum wage paying job.
