Etsy Stock Has Had an Impressive Run So Far in 2018

Etsy Stock Has Had an Impressive Run So Far in 2018

Etsy (ETSY) is a fast-growing online retailer. The company started as a seller of craft and vintage items, but over the years, it added several other categories to its online platform. However, its strength in vintage craft and goods is its main driving force. Having the first mover’s advantage, the company has fended off competition from Amazon’s Handmade service. Also, relatively low seller fees are an added advantage.
