Dot-coms struggle despite apparent appeal
Online booksellers Amazon.com (AMZN) and BarnesandNoble.com (BNBN) are struggling after a sharp decline in the Nasdaq, despite their popularity among college students seeking to purchase textbooks for spring semester. Amazon closed Wednesday at 18.375, down from 64.125 the year before. Barnes and Noble closed Wednesday at 2.1875, nearly 85 percent lower than last year.
