Are Domain Names Recession Proof?

[Ceres]

Alex Tajirian of CircleID tackles the question of whether domain names are recession proof.

In Tajirian's opinion, we have to wait and see how e-commerce sites do during the holiday shopping season before we get our answer.

Some domainers are experiencing drops in sales and prices....However, it is not clear whether those drops are because of changes in valuations by buyers, sellers, or both. Right now not enough sales are being done for the observed price drops to be statistically attributed to diminished valuations.

E-commerce profits are a much better barometer of domain name resilience. A strong showing during the holidays would give domain names, which are vehicles of e-commerce branding and traffic, more plausibility as recession-proof assets.
