Mark, most internet commerce is business-to-business and that percentage is growing. Forecasts are 70%-90% of commerce on the net will be biz-to-biz. The national economy would not even notice if e-tailing disappeared tomorrow. And only a relatively small number of investors are involved with inet stocks. Don't delude yourself, its just not that important yet and the companies that will end up making the most profit from it won't be Amazon or Yahoo!. "Trust me on that".<<
Oh, i see more businesses hooking up with the likes of Yhoo, Aol, Amzn, etc. all the time. Eye balls is big business through individualize, targeted marketing today.
I don't see how the consumer can be left out when 2/3rds. of the GDPs' are consumer spending. I find myself using the internet more and more to purchase items, investing, travel, communications, research, etc. And where do you go to find this info., yhoo,Aol,Amzn etc.... The internet and Ecommerce will catch on more and more with the consumer because economic losses and opportunity costs will be too great later on. This thing is starting to snowball now...trust me on that one! |
