Nasdaq may drop K-Tel stock listing
Article Abstract:
K-Tel International may lose its listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market as it lacks the required assets to remain listed. The money-losing record seller, however, has appealed with the stock exchange to extend its listing and is also attempting to generate enough capital to meet the stock market requirement. In the meantime, the company will continue trading on Nasdaq, where it saw its stock price plunged after the warning sent by the stock market. The warning by the Nasdaq presents an larger warning that the Internet is not yet profitable for most firms.

Selket settles claims on Y2K fraud
Article Abstract:
Ridgecrest, CA-based Selket Precious Metals has agreed to settle claims brought by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that it has used the Internet since 1995 to dupe investors into buying unregistered stocks and certificates redeemable in gold. The firm capitalized on the fear generated by the year 2000 computer date transition problem to falsely represent itself. The FTC found that the promised returns by Selket to these investors were highly improbable for a number of reasons.
