: VRM | Vroom Inc. News, Ratings, and Charts

VRM – E-commerce sales have been soaring as the number of online shoppers has ballooned amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and organizations have adopted an increasingly digital approach to marketing their products. While supply chain disruptions remain a concern, Wall Street Analysts expect fundamentally sound e-commerce stocks Vroom (VRM) and Lulu’s Fashion (LVLU) to witness substantial gains in the coming months. Read on.

The COVID-19 pandemic precipitated a drastic shift by consumers toward online shopping. With that, the e-commerce industry has witnessed a steep rise in customers, with retail sales from all kinds of devices increasing continuously. Consumer spending on e-commerce is expected to hit a record $1 trillion this year. And the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in some countries should drive e-commerce sales further.

Retailers have announced the opening of 8100 store locations this year, more than twice the number of locations they closed last year. While this could hinder the overall growth of the e-commerce industry, rapid digitization, increasing smartphone users, and the rising adoption of e-commerce platforms by business enterprises could keep the industry’s momentum going. The global B2C e-commerce market is estimated to reach $6.38 trillion by 2028, registering an 8.97% CAGR.

Given the industry’s promising growth prospects, Wall Street Analysts expect the stocks of fundamentally sound e-commerce companies Vroom, Inc. (VRM - Get Rating) and Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc. (LVLU - Get Rating) to rally in the coming months.
