The dot-com Crisis The .com crisis, or dot-com bubble, was a period of excessive speculation in internet-related companies from 1995 to 2000. Investors poured money into startups with inflated valuations despite many lacking solid business models. This speculative frenzy led to rapid stock price increases, followed by a massive crash in 2000. Major companies like Pets.com and Webvan failed, leading to significant financial losses. The bubble burst resulted in the loss of trillions of dollars in market value and highlighted the dangers of speculative investing and overvaluation in the tech sector. It reshaped investor expectations and approaches towards internet companies.
