Intershop-Aktie erlebt Höhenflug - 500 Beiträge pro Seite

[Nachrichten [wO]]

Die Aktie des Softwareanbieters Intershop erlebt nach der rapiden Talfahrt der vergangenen Monate heute einen kleinen Höhenflug. Grund für den deutlichen Kursanstieg von bislang in der Spitze mehr als 30 Prozent ist die Meldung, dass der Reifenhersteller Continental seinen internationalen Internet-Marktplatz auf der e-Commerce-Plattform und der Standardsoftware von Intershop aufbauen wolle. Über die Höhe des Auftragsvolumens ist bislang nichts bekannt. Ab dem kommenden Herbst sollen Continental-Kunden in den USA und Schweden ihre Einkäufe bei Conti über das Internet abwickeln. Für die deutschen Kunden eröffnet sich diese Möglichkeit erst Ende kommenden Jahres.
