Excuse me if i have grammar or spelling mistakes, i don’t live in an english speaking country.
In the end credits scene of Thor the Dark World we saw Benicio del Toro’s the Collector for the first time and we learned that the Aether (the red thing that Malekith used) and the Tesseract (from the Avengers) are two infinity stones. One is being kept in the Collector’s chambers and the other one in Asgard.

The Aether is clearly the Power gem, which in the comics gives lots of strenght. I think this due to the fact that it gave strenght to Malekith’s soldiers during the battle against Thor’s grandfather Bor. It also gave strenght to Kurse and it was very clear that this was an infinity stone when Kurse moved the trayectory of Mjolnir (the hammer). It’s true that the Aether also opened some kind of portal thing to make the world dark or something (i don’t have any idea what Malekith wanted to do) and that doesn’t have anything to do with making people more strong but that’s just to adapt Malekith’s plan from the comics that was something similar and introduce another infinity gem to the MCU at the same time. Plus, it’s red, like the power gem.
The tesseract/cosmic cube is probably the space gem because:
1. It created a wormhole in the avengers. A portal that comunicated two spots in the universe.
2. It teleported the Red Skull somewhere. ‘Cause don’t dare say he is dead.
3. Now, this might sound a little too much but: What if the Red Skull’s weapons in WW2 created by the tesseract didn’t have destructive power and they only teleported people? When you think about it, when a HYDRA soldier shot someone they just dissapeared, they didn’t bleed. Maybe they were teleporting them somewhere? I don’t know, it’s just a theory. Go to 1:54 and 2:54 of this video to see it.

4. It was revealed in the end credit scene that the person who hired Loki to get the tesseract was Thanos, and Thanos is looking for the infinity gems so it makes sense.
5. In the comics, the space gem is purple, similar to blue.
Now for the third infinity stone. The mind gem. Loki’s staff!
It could control minds so what else do you need? The other told Loki: “he put the scepter in you hand”. That’s Thanos, my friends, who apparently alredy found the mind gem and gave it to Loki to get the space gem in the Avengers. Plus, it’s blue, like in the comics. It’s true that Loki tried to get into Iron Man’s mind but couldn’t but that’s just to make another funny scene. But if you take this very seriously, then we could say that he didn’t use it properly or that the gems don’t hold that much power in the movies version.

I believe this thing in the image below that will be important in the Guardians of the Galaxy plot is also an infinity stone. I heard from a guy in the comments section of an article that he heard this thing contains the power to destroy the universe, so my guess is that it’s the reality gem. I know this doesn’t seem believable but lots of details of info leaks and i don’t like to read it because i like to get surprised in the theatre but i heard it from this guy. But yeah, it would be perfectly normal that that fact got released. Anyways (maybe i just shouldn’t have mentioned it), the thing is, it’s clear that this is an infinity stone and my guess is that it's the reality gem. The fourth gem in the MCU.
From now on, this is gonna contain Captain America the Winter Soldier mid credit scene spoilers so if you are not going to continue and you want to leave a comment go below very quickly so you can read anything. Thanks for reading, I am BaronZemo.
Okay, you’ve stayed? Great. So, apparently, now Hydra is ruled by Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker as seen in the end of the Winter Soldier and they have Loki’s scepter. That means they also have the mind gem and my guess is that they will use it to make the Hulk angry and turn it against the Avengers in Avengers. Age of Ultron as seen in this concept art.
Conclusion: The MCU is a nutshell.
