[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 2044943, member: 1"] [URL='http://www.forbes.com/sites/brettowens/2016/02/06/the-best-e-commerce-stock-is-not-amzn/'][B]The Best E-Commerce Stock Is Not Amazon - Forbes[/B][/URL] When most people think of e-commerce, the first name that leaps to mind is Amazon.com (AMZN). There’s good reason for that: according to Macquarie Research, the retail giant accounted for more than half of all e-commerce growth last year. Put another way, of every extra dollar Americans spent online in 2015, $0.51 went to Amazon. But be that as it may, Amazon, with its razor-thin profit margins, lack of a dividend and nosebleed P/E ratio of 426, is far from my favorite way to play this trend. Instead, I prefer a “pick-and-shovel” company that’s about as old school as they come: the 109-year-old United Parcel Service (UPS). [/QUOTE]
