Updated

The following video is from Tuesday's MarketFoolery, in which host Chris Hill and analysts Charly Travers, Dave Meier, and Jason Moser discuss the top business and investing stories of the day.

Amazon.com unveiled "Amazon Birthday Gift," a new program that enables Facebook friends to send virtual gift-card credits to one another. Given that Facebook has its own gifting program, will the new partnership with Amazon bring in new revenue for the social network?

In this installment of MarketFoolery, our analysts talk about whether this is a "win-win" situation for both companies or if Amazon stands to gain the most.
