The official online holiday shopping season is off to a very strong start.

Online sales led the way on Black Friday.

eBay Inc. is helping a Norway-based global platform for online classified ads go private.

Nordstrom reported third-quarter profit that topped Street estimates but sales that missed, with declines across both its banners.

The first 20 days of the holiday season show stronger-than-expected e-commerce activity, and Cyber Monday is poised to be the biggest online shopping day ever.

Best Buy reported better-than-expected profits on slightly softer-than-expected revenue for its third quarter as consumers continue to rein in spending on certain items.

Six U.S. companies ranked among the top global performers in a study of brand value.

New data indicates retailers will have a lot to be thankful for during the upcoming Black Friday-Cyber Monday (BFCM) shopping events.
