Shares of online retailer Amazon.com Inc. and auctioneer eBay Inc. declined Friday after a Bear Stearns analyst said new data indicates holiday Internet sales are being hurt by a consumer pullback.
Amazon shares declined $2.08, or 2.3 percent, to $90.32, while eBay shed $1.34, or 3.9 percent, to $32.75 in afternoon trading.
In a note to clients, Bear Stearns analyst Robert S. Peck said a conversation with the head of online data analysis company comScore Inc. indicated concerns about oil, housing and the stock market are impacting consumer spending this holiday season.
"Many consumers are actively pursuing bargains and may be waiting for further promotions," he wrote.
Peck said comScore data indicates dollars spent per buyer have fallen 12 percent year over year, and consumers in lower income brackets have reined in spending more than others.
The analyst said, however, that spending growth has sped up almost 20 percent in recent weeks, and he thinks it will continue in the next few weeks.

The stocks were Boeing(BA), Caterpillar(CAT), ConocoPhillips (COP), Air Products(APD), Apache(APA), Terex(TEX), and Energizer(ENR). Cramer admitted that he recommended these stocks too late in the bull market, and that most of these stocks fell after he first recommended them . They are up 5% now, and Cramer thinks that these stocks are the "perfect group." He likes CAT and TEX the best, followed by COP.
Overlooked IPOs: Masimo (MASI). Cramer believes that it has a superior product and a great recurring revenue stream with purchases of disposable parts for the medical sensor they make.
After the lightning round Cramer talked about Allergan (AGN). Cramer said people have a desire to look good, and this stock is in a great position to profit, while moving into traditional medical market. He then had the CEO of the company on the phone to discuss future earnings and sales.
Mad Mail: Cramer answered a few emails. He told viewers to ignore the downgrade on Boeing (BA) since he thinks the stock is going higher. He then answered a question about FiberTower (FTWR), which he doesn't like. In response to another emailer, Cramer said he likes Starent (STAR) because it's an intellectual property play.
