- During the early days of the Internet, most dot-coms were driven by revenues rather than profits. A large number were even driven by “hits” to their site rather than revenues. This all changed in early 2000, however, when the prices of unprofitable dot-com stocks plummeted on Wall Street. Most analysts have attributed this to a return to rationality, with investors focusing once again on fundamentals like earnings growth. Does this mean that, during the 1990s, dot-coms that focused on “hits” rather than revenues or profits had bad business plans?

I say this because then, in a way, a company would be a much larger version of a person. Companies also have the right to make their own decisions on typical business practices and routes they want to take as a whole. Some examples of these would be where they would like to source their materials, where they would like to manufacture their goods, where they would like to build their factories, and who they would like to conduct business with. Companies are some of the most important organizations in the world today because of how much of an impact they have on the world's economy.
