ANNAPOLIS, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 1, 1999--
InternetInvesting.com announces the availability of the domain name
AfterHoursTrading.com.
Asking price for this prime piece of real estate in cyber space
is $500,000.
With the NASDAQ stock market and several private firms preparing
to offer after hours stock trading to individual investors later this
year, the market for after hours trading is about to explode,
according to Paul Shread, president of InternetInvesting.com, an
investor's guide to brokers and after hours trading.
As much as 40 percent of stock orders are placed after the
markets close, according to research firm Gomez Advisors, creating a
huge potential market for firms offering after hours trading.
"With after hours trading about to take off, I can't think of a
better location in cyber space for financial firms," Mr. Shread said.
"This domain name will immediately make any firm the focal point for
investor interest in after hours trading."
With Yahoo rumored to be in talks with Reuters unit Instinet,
after hours trading could get even bigger, Mr. Shread said.
"Some very heavy hitters see the potential and are moving in,"
Mr. Shread said. "If Yahoo offers after hours trading, can the other
search engines be far behind? You need something to set yourself apart
in this area, to let people know you're there, and to create an
unforgettable presence. This domain name can make that happen for you.
AfterHoursTrading.com is the only possible domain name in this area."
The number of online brokerage accounts is expected to explode to
25 million by 2002, up from 6.7 million accounts in '95, according to
market research firm IDC.
"With an easy-to-remember name like this and a good marketing
plan, it's a can't-lose opportunity," Mr. Shread said.
Inquiries should be directed to Mr. Shread at
pshread@internetinvesting.com.
