  2. Dot Com Bubble 1995-2002 The dot-com bust of 2000-2002 And then everything changed. Fast-forward to the dot-com crash of 2000-2002. Venture capital investments started dropping immediately, borrowers defaulted, bond-market froze, and stock market started to tumble first slowly, and then, after September 11, it dropped down very fast, just like the falling comet. Companies started disappearing left and right, and the party quickly came to an end. Prospects disappeared, analysts changed their tune, and internet became a commodity. http://www.zacks.com/blog/comments.php?cid=8907

  4. Dot Com Bubble 1995-2002 Roughly between 1995 and 2001, a speculative bubble known as the "dot-com bubble" occurred, during which Western stock markets saw an increase in value from the growth of the Internet sector. Bubbles such as this have occurred through out history: in the 1840s, for example, manic buying in the field of railway building lead to a stock market bubble which burst devastatingly in the 1850s. When the dot-com bubble burst in 2001, the result was a mild but long-lasting recession in the Western world. Because of the unknown and innovative nature of online business, many standard business models were abandoned in the early 90s in favour of radical new models which focused on brand-building and networking before profits were even considered. The idea was to increase market share whilst operating at a loss. The novelty value of these companies, and the difficulty in valuing them properly, led to an incredible exuberance with which stocks in the new dot-com companies were purchased. This in turn led to them being increasingly over-valued, perpetuating the enthusiasm for buying stocks. The bursting of the dot-com bubble occurred, numerically, on 10th March 2000; the NASDAQ fell slightly after this peak, but this was attributed to correction by most market analysts.
