Could someone explain the Dot Com Bubble (like I'm five)?

Or maybe six, but don't get too crazy.

Dot coms are internet companies. When the internet first came out, everyone was excited about the new possibilities. They saw that people could make a lot of money through the internet, but they didn't understand it yet. So everyone started buying up new internet stocks, expecting to make lots of money on the next big thing. They thought it didn't matter if a company was losing money, because it would make a lot of money in the future.

Unfortunately for a lot of investors, just because you can make a lot of money with the internet, it doesn't mean that every company with a website would. As soon as people realized this, they all freaked out at exactly the same time and lost all of their money.

The end.
