TSLA, AMZN, GOOG, these are all green and good. Then I have PYPL, MRNA, SOFI, very red
I didn't write it was purely dumb or irrational to buy some PYPL. Re-read the first line above. I wrote I don't see how one justifies it as their largest holding, especially to this point: > Paypal at 25% of portfolio and 10% of net worth (including my house). Best of luck though if that's your strategy. Already missed out on a huge (and safe) 40%+ jump in SPY last couple years, but maybe Mr Market will soon pile into PYPL and justify your conviction. Doubt it is though.
Making it a holding, okay fine. Personally I don't see the moat in Paypal, but okay. Your largest holding though? It has slowly bled for 2 years while SPY is up 40+% and stocks like META (my largest holding) and AMZN (your actual smart holding) are up huge. It's not outsmarting Mr Market "waiting around" on PYPL as your #1 holding. You've lost (and are losing) money not having it in winners. Even just SPY. So you've already lost out big. As for 1 year? Remindme! [1 year] Good luck /u/averagestockpicker
This. These past earnings we've seen this wonky 'positioning' shit with PYPL, RDDT, HOOD and a variety of others. Algos are adapting and know where the 'bets' are placed... or so it seems. MAx pain alive and well.

It's a growth stock so the market is primarily going to care about their growth trajectory and how sustainable that growth is. Most tech companies can grow double digits if they're burning cash/equity on acquisitions and S&M, but that growth cannot be sustained. Understanding where the company is in relation to its expected long-term growth trajectory and what the quality of the growth is is probably the main thing to look at. In addition to revenue growth, you'll also want to see growth in subscriptions and growth up take of their merchant solutions. In theory that would translate to revenue growth, but not always. For example, revenue could increase as a result of price increases despite total subscription volume being flat or negative. If that happened that would be a worrying sign and might suggest their moat is weakening. The other thing that's probably relevant to SHOP at this stage is that they're continuing to show progress on profitability. Expanding free cash flow margins would be nice to see and would demonstrate operational leverage. SHOP is quite a nuanced business to understand to be honest because they have different segments of the business which are growing at different rates, which have different margins and levels of importance to the overall picture. And as an eCommerce player they're also fairly exposed to macro risks which could impact consumer behaviour. Understanding their relative performance and guidance to other players in the eCommerce space like ETSY and PYPL would give you an idea of what's macro related and what's more fundamental to the business itself. There's loads of stuff that could potentially impact the stock price in any given quarterly report though... Weak guidance and macro concerns can easily throw a stock like SHOP around. Price movements from month to month are mostly just noise. There's no right way to value a stock though. I think generally for long-term investors it tech companies it's the intangible stuff that really matters most. For example, until AWS AMZN was an awful stock with terrible margins, but had you instead focused on AMZNs ability to innovate and assumed that this would allow them to find new ways to grow revenue and cashflows that would have been far more insightful than focusing purely on their year-to-year eCommerce growth. SHOP is an awesome tech company which has proven its ability to expand into new businesses. Who knows what they're going to be doing in 10 years, but guessing what their subscription revenue might be years into the future is probably going to be less important than just having a high-level view on the company culture, its CEO and the quality of its existing products. If you're a long-term investor I think just believing in the company is a fine approach to be honest. Maybe just do a sanity check of the valuation before investing to make sure you're not grossly overpaying for the company.
I own PYPL shares. I hate PYPL.

Why is $PYPL dumping so much?
Dump this pig and hop on board MELI. Because of delays in fintech adoption in South America, it’s like going back in time 10 years to get SHOP PYPL and AMZN in one.
PYPL has to be the absolute worst stock, company is a pile of shit and will always be.
Everything is killing it these days. Only a matter of time for AMC and GME and PYPL to join the pandemic party again. Theyre slowly waking everything up from the dead. It started with AI and big tech. Then your disneys, targets, and raytheons. Then the monster drinks and crocodile slippers. Then the airlines. Then the banks. Then the who knows what next. Maybe time to enter paypal.
Been a difficult earnings season this one... Unless the company crushes it outta the park... you got picked off at second... thinking you had a double. Look at AMZN and PYPL... AMZN should've been at $190 after those earnings but it fucks around and steals your theta. PYPL should be WAY over $170. Then there's DIS... no fucking way those results were that bad.
Commentary on other stocks: PYPL has been on a nice streak lately, almost at the $70 mark! Looks like CLFD bottomed finally. It's been a very rough time in that industry, but insiders had been buying in recent months which was a great sign of confidence (as was the buyback authorization). It might seem irresponsible to be doing buybacks during a loss-making period, but there is effectively 0 debt and a $150M cash pile (30% of the market cap) to sustain them into a major upcycle. Orders are on hold for BEADs funding to get unlocked (in order to secure government funding you have to have a lot of funds locked in and ready, meaning lower demand leading up to the funding disbursal). Hoping Q1 2025 is the profitable again and showing growth. DAKT is also on a nice run, and still cheap. I'm up 26% on my position.
$PYPL up, $SQ down, why?
My brain can fit so much but there was this cvs yolo, a PM yolo, and PYPL specifically. Something about the trade sizes or the verbiage felt genuine. Now i just need to do my DD and catch up on some scores 🏆
Why is $PYPL down?
I actually just sold my entire $PYPL position but I'm not going into QQQ because I don't think large cap tech which everyone is doing is the way to go. I've found a smaller company that might be a potential ten bagger in ten years that will benefit from all the infrastructure investment coming in the US over the next decade.

Just read an article that states PYPL could be Berkshire's "secret" buy. fuk... could you imagine?
No. I’ve noticed a pattern that constant posts on the investment subs about SOFI/PYPL/etc whining about “WILL IT EVER COME BACK?!” happen when the stock is still dumping. The turnaround always seems to happen once those people give up and stop making the desperate posts.

PYPL 21/6 70C thoughts? Down 50% gonna cry a bit
What happens to PYPL if SQ goes big earnings green dick?
Lol! This sounds like him. Another thing I didn't like was that he would have 0 dte SPX and NDX trades open to the value of say $20,000 each, and he'd have some tiny trades like a PYPL credit spread for $300. WTF? In fact, he'd have a lot of these tiny ones, and I assumed he did that just to have something to talk about. Anyway, I de-subscribed after a couple of months.
PYPL had amazing ER yesterday but dumping today. Pains!!
As a PYPL bol, I got obliterated
Ehhh, I was somewhat right. PYPL still ended up greener even if MCD went up after the drop.
PYPL... their earnings were fantastic.
Nice podcast breakdown of KNSL [here](https://open.spotify.com/episode/77FlLGc8FV4yVeoavTVXPb?si=ti4H1qfPSmiF02aOL-VT5Q) (also PYPL). Matt Frankel is a long time Kinsale bull, for what its worth. The big factors he brought up were: Lower combined ratio which is essentially their underwriting profit. It's up to 78%, which is still far better than the industry, but lower. This is possibly the sign of underwriting risk. Higher use of reinsurance. This isn't odd for the industry, but higher than KNSL traditionally does. This is possibly to lower risk levels for the company. Slowing growth. Premium growth slowed from 38% to 25%. The market has worried that this will be a trend. Management is traditionally a under promise, over deliver type has already said growth would slow. Again, even if.you.think growth slows 15%, I think this stock is cheap, and about 10% from being a huge steal, imo.
How were PYPL earnings? Stock losing all momentum again
I’m old enough to remember the homies celebrating PYPL pumping pre market 
Need a position to run the chart. But yesterday was a markedly dull day at PYPL after 2 days of ~6% increase. Best guess: Ran out of steam on the way to today’s earnings. There was a pump that began in the nearly inaccessible to retail Pre that was joined by retail at 8aET, all likely in response to ER release and hopium. But that immediately turned into a predominant sell off up to about … now.
PYPL with amazing earnings and guidance and still at 5 year lows. Something has gotta give with the hate for this stock

$PYPL earnings report is positive - breakout expected on market opening today 🚀
For those who think PYPL missed: They didn't miss on earnings. They adjusted how they calculate their non-GAAP EPS. With their old methodology they'd have gotten 1.40$ eps, which would be a 20% increase rather than their estimated middle single-digit growth.
I had forgotten I had several PYPL june 70 calls. Would you look to dump soon or baghold closer to expiry?
Damn it, I missed it, PYPL numbers are actually very good. Maybe it was Dan Schulman all along?
