Amazon has reported a first-quarter loss of $3.8 billion due to lower online sales and a fall in the value of its shares in electric vehicle firm Rivian.

This is the company’s first quarterly loss since 2015.

Growth in other parts of Amazon’s business, including cloud computing and advertising, remained strong.
