Shares of eBay Inc., Amazon.com Inc. and other online retailers fell on "Cyber Monday" yesterday as analysts worried that deep discounts from traditional retailers may have stolen the thunder from their online-only rivals, known for lower pricing. Shopping traffic online typically rises on the Monday after the U. S. Thanksgiving holiday, as consumers seek better bargains than they found in brick-and-mortar stores over the weekend. But this year's Cyber Monday was expected to be somewhat muted, because worried retailers were already advertising deep discounts online and in stores even before the U. S. Thanksgiving weekend. Ebay shares closed down US90¢, or 4.8%, at US$12.23, while Amazon's stock was off US$2.23, about 2.2%, at US$40.47. Forrester Research expects Web sales to increase about 12% for the holiday shopping season in November
