15 E-Commerce Stocks That Should Do Just Fine in a Recession

E-commerce began shortly after the internet and computer technology made the whole thing possible, and it’s been growing ever since.

And it's not just retail. Business-to-business sales online also are beneficiaries of these trends, and well-run, solid businesses providing essential pieces of the supply chain from raw materials to final delivery will continue to thrive as whatever economic headwinds are on the horizon arrive and then abate.
