Hi! This is cmsstudios, Yes again ebay stock has fallen! Who will get hurt by this, us the sellers! When the stock falls this means shareholders are selling off because their chances of making money on this stock has gone 50% less then when they bought it. The low on this stock was $31.00. When this stock hits that level many holders of this stock will unload quick.
Latey analysts of these internet stocks don't have a cue what's wrong with these compaines. I do, Why should sellers on ebay care! the lower the stock the higher the fees! I reported 2 weeks ago on this forum that ebay was in trouble! that there stock will go below $20.00 a share.
Well here's the best believe it or not, if Dale Earnhardt did not get kill, ebay would have been in bigger trouble now then ever before! After Dale's death, over 16,000 auctions were listed with over 80% of them being sold. Up to date his listing have top over 30,000. Sad but ture, death in the sports World makes ebay look good.
Ebay if you would like my help! look me up!
I can increase your sale by 20%.

It's not just eBay or Internet stocks in general which are down... the whole market is pretty much in the tank right now.
I weep for my mutual fund and my 401(k). 
Now is a good time to buy, though. eBay and most of the others will go back up eventually. The market is like that.

Lets see, 16,000 auctions is a 0.3% increase in auctions for ebay and you think that is enough to save their bacon?

Do a little better research...Earnhardt auctions were WAY over 30,000...try 75,000 PLUS!..
IMHO, the only reason for a big downturn on eBAy and any other auction, is a fear of less disposable income in the coming months...many finacial analysts have stated that the "coming" recession is based on business "FEARS" of a "coming" recession...
Ya get what ya seeds...

This reads like a really intelligent thread.Very well put together that should peak the interest of ebaY.HAHAHAHAHAHA
Ebay is down for one simple reason because the TECH STOCKS are down.It ends with a .COM
thats why.
If you follow ebaY stock as I do every few hours you will notice that if a .COM gets trounced like Yahoo then EbaY takes a hit as well.
Ebay got some negative publicity yesterday and that pulled it down.Plus it has too be considered that ebaY stock is way over a priced based on PE ratio's.
So an adjustment in value is in order.

I don't think we can
talk" ourselves into a recession any more than we can "talk" ourselves out of one.
All the speculation on .com stocks were based on future growth. Now the indicators are showing slow or no growth. eBay is stuck at approx 6 million listings and no where to go. It's stock price should soon align with its earnings providing a more realistic P/E.
Raising fees further this year is a real possibility to help its earnings and keep the stock price afloat.

Under that theory since Intel is at an all time low, We would be paying more for computer components. And when AT&T drops they would raise their long distance fees.
Anyone who has read a business magazine let alone taken a business course would know this is simply not true.

"..the lower the stock the higher the fees!"
I think you're confusing profits with stock prices. The stock price has very little direct correlation with fees. Ebay does not get any part of the stock market prices. Why don't you go check ebay's earnings then come back and tell everyone, and we'll see if ebay is hurting as you suggest it is.
Are you, by the way, a Yahoo paid consultant?

It's the P/E that reflects the earnings problem- do either of you know what a P/E is ? From your posts it doesn't appear so.
eBay can raise its fees because it has no competition. Intel does have competition.
eBay will need to boost earnings to float the stock price in light of no growth.

I don,t need any help.When will investors
realize the .com,s and techies just don,t
cut the mustard in the long term.Try investing in "BOMBARDIER" (AEROSPACE),
sit back and what it make you rich!!
But please quit crying about how "The whole
market is down right now!!!" Bombardier
is not!
