4. Amazon

Gain: $63.9 Billion

Though CEO Jeff Bezos says that he is investing a lot for the future, Amazon’s shareholders had no profit in the current year. However, due to this, investors are going to watch the overall revenue in the coming year including growing sales of Amazon cloud services. Since the competition is increasing rapidly, CEO Bezos built his cloud on a minimal cost that could probably continue to gain market share in 2014.  

5. Priceline

Gain: $30.2 Billion

Priceline.com is a commercial website that claims to help users obtain discount rates for travel-related purchases such as airline tickets and hotel stays. The company must give some credit to the “Big Bang Theory” star Kaley Cuoco and Trekkie god William Shatner for helping Priceline shareholders win huge profit, as the two actors appeared in the popular commercial of “Express Deals” program.

2014 is going to be a wonderful year if the economy recovers in the U.S. and it would be strengthened if Europe joins the party that will in turn boost both business and leisure travel.
