Share price and profit are two very different beasts and only really have a loose connection to one another. Plenty of companies lose money left and right but still have high share prices.
The share price is just what the stock market feels a company is worth. It’s almost 100% vibe-based.
I’m not sure what your point is, the investors care about the stock price because that’s their money in/money out. Lower profit could be fine if they’re, say, investing 150Bn/yr into a new venture that stands to be profitable in the future (may even drive the stock price up). It’s vibes based to a degree, quite a bit of analysis goes into a company’s performance as well.
FWIW their gross profit is also up more than 3x in the same time frame.
