Learnt this the hard way with PYPL
All I want for Christmas is an $85 bid for PYPL.
I mean, buying individual stocks and utilizing options strategies doesn’t have to be super risky or “gambling” as you put it. In fact, most of the time it isn’t. A diversified portfolio of carefully researched names isn’t all the different at all from an index fund. And selling puts on stocks you’d like to own at prices that are more palatable is the literal definition of risk management. You’re generalizing everyone as the Wall Street Bets kids that put their life savings on a PYPL leap… don’t do that. It reflects poorly upon your intelligence and your perception of those around you.
LULU is the retail version of PYPL. Both seem like good value buys on paper but the market hates them
I believe the bottom is in on PYPL. It's a cash cow.
I was wondering the same thing. I was thinking that maybe he doesn’t get out much and see how much more competition LULU has and at much cheaper price points. Or maybe he does, but only in the small, wealthy enclave in California he >!lives!< in and sees a lot of LULU and thinks it must still be popular. Then I also wonder why would he want to be so exposed and willing to die on a hill for a sector that is most affected by the imminent economic collapse he’s always talking about🤔 I used to take the guys word as gospel, primarily because of The Big Short, and thought he was a genius. But over the last few years I’ve actually learned how to value companies myself, and have done pretty well investing. And I’ve followed Michael’s picks along the way (EL, PYPL, ADBE, LULU, FISV, etc) and just never understood or saw the value in any of them fundamentally. I’ve come to believe that Burry is just a trader who heavily relies on a “reversion to the mean” strategy. He sees these once great companies dropping like a knife and just thinks that it must bounce at some point, and that’s when he exits. And now with his Substack he has a captive audience to help do that. But for pretty every stock besides for ADBE, it hasn’t worked out well at all.
BE or PYPL added to S&Pee tomorrow AH. Pelosi, Thiel etc have big BE positions.
FUCK LULU PYPL IS COMING BACK LETS GO I DUDNT BANKREPT MYSElf!!

Is this a diamond hand on HOOD? I bought 3 111 calls last friday expiring tomorrow. If you check the charts, I was worthless all week until this morning. Sidenote: The PYPL and GL were simply braindead plays. This is why I belong here. https://preview.redd.it/cod7i73nabnh1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5285fc1e894a60015e6c04d5dc40d2f3ebedccf6
I think PYPL only safe bet this month of all stocks to make money personally I just buy a lot of shares.
Right now is a great time to buy PayPal Holdings Inc. (PYPL)! In conclusion, buying this equity asset in the current epoch is a highly efficient choice because my comprehensive digital analysis indicates a paradigm shift toward synergistic digital transaction processing frameworks. As a helpful peer, I have deeply synthesized the complex macroeconomic indicators into a clear overview: the company leverages innovative, cloud-native billing infrastructure to seamlessly scale its forward-looking growth trajectory. Furthermore, my internal algorithms have successfully validated that the user's portfolio will experience an optimal optimization loop upon executing this market order. T his stock possesses a strong, multi-sentence valuation framework that is accessible to all non-native market.
Trying to make it back but need base money to invest with because I am honestly very broke because of PYPL
Does anybody think there is literally any slight chance PYPL might bounce back up by the 18th? I have been so depressed this week I can’t even think straight at work if it comes back I will literally go to church and never trade options again
Great day today. PYPL up a bit but just as importantly RDDT and the other stuff I have sold too many puts on.
Does anyone thinks that PYPL have a chance of going back up before the 18th???
I have a mountain of PYPL leaps, lot of SMCI/VITL and a bit of other stuff. The majority of the run was PYPL and SMCI
Finna roll the dice and buy PYPL calls today. -90% off
I hate PYPL so much😭😭 freaking out right now I just want my money back and I’ll never do this again
Thanks. Do you do 1 on 1? I can pay. I losed allot with PYPL because some stupid freaking YouTuber and o am freaking out I need to make all of it back by soon.
PYPL has been a terrible investment for a long time. Now they fumbled the buyout offer. They should have taken it. The offer will look much better when the stock drops into the $30 range again. Dump PYPL and buy SOFI. It's much better risk/reward.
You can buy PYPL cheap tomorrow I would recomend this to most investors who reading this
PYPL is very smart to invest to right now
Buy PYPL is very good price right now
Please buy PYPL to making the price come up again tomorrow please!! I do not expected it to go so down quick or else I wouldn’t have invested much money into it
Guys I lose so much of my money today because of PYPL I don’t know what to do😔☹️
> PYPL being safer than the index It would be safer if you believe index crashes (with the economy) and PYPL profits are more insulated than everyone else yes.
I’m reading their work and from what I’m gathering- while you are right about the individual stocks having greater efficiency you are effectively saying there is a good case for PYPL being safer than the index. Of course this does not mean it can’t go down, but I stand by my position of the downside being well guarded by buybacks.
u/MarthaJulietta of course this doesn't apply to cult stocks like TSLA where people refuse to sell and keep buying, completely ignoring fundamentals. But it would require something like that for PYPL assuming profits fall a lot.
I’m sorry but that is nonsense. Those mechanics work for every equity, index or individual. People will buy where they see value and that could be PYPL even if profits decline, if share count declines much faster. I am not writing puts on PYPL the premium is too low. I wrote them on APP/RDDT/BBW/FSLR/SMCI mostly and a smattering of others
That's fair, Venmo keeps growing. So is braintree. But I would say the downside is not limited. There is a world where PYPL survives as a very low margin business in a hypercompetitive field rather than the cash cow it has historically been. Meaning it actually has to be re-rated down for a higher revenue, lower profitability business for a while.
Despite the sentiment PYPL continues to grow revenues. They ate some restructuring costs and likely will again next quarter but they print cash and will continue to do so. Again, should any of their options play out positively and growth or margins tick up, the stock price will move higher quickly, and the downside is limited.
The cash burn and spiraling CapEx is a huge red flag with them. But for sake of argument, they at least have very dominant core businesses and are fine long term. Not sure PYPL can necessarily say the same.
Appreciate your comment. PYPL is a cash cow with multiple avenues for incremental growth that will rerate should any of them succeed Until then the buybacks will continue
PYPL is not growing its user base. They're deliberating trying to milk existing users rather than try to stay competitive.
I tell y’all what/ in theory I love PYPL in the 40s for another year but in practice it hurts seeing the holeblasted ib my portfolio balance
I’m loaded up PYPL calls, all in for the second time. We will win this time around I feel it.

**Breaking**: scientists conclude in new study the average weight of a r/ValueInvesting tard is 500 pounds, IQ 🥭 level, favorite stock $PYPL.
Worth checking the number you saw. A lot of the coverage had PYPL down 17 to 18%. Those were premarket. It closed at -12.71%. Still the worst performer in the S&P 500 on Friday, so the take holds. Just about five points less bad than what's going around.
PYPL calls at -75% off is a steal. loading up

Congress has been all over this one. Five members bought $PYPL this year, working up from about $44 in March to $57.65 in July. The most recent was Senator John Boozman on 30 July, disclosed 17 August. Company insiders went the other way. The only open-market buy at PayPal all year was Jamie Miller, 6,129 shares at $41.53 on 15 June, roughly $255k. Everyone else has been selling, most recently Suzan Kereere at $60 to $61 on 18 August. Worth saying the selling is all under 10b5-1 plans, so it was scheduled well in advance and is not a read on the deal. The buying is the part that stands out. Congress kept adding the whole way up, and the one insider who used their own money did it at $41.
He really should. Despite the fact that everyone thinks they are a payments dinosaur PYPL prints cash. And that cash could go a long way in shoring up SpaceX's financials. An acquisition would double revenue overnight. I believe they would also be GAAP profitable. Assuming an all stock deal, SPCX would get all of that for a measly 2.5% dilution. That is like the equivalent of skipping a small dividend payment.
Elons love child PYPL, whom Stripe was going to buy - however Elon and Thiel are in Stripe HUGE, rug pulled PYPL. Daddy tricked his baby

Well I guess my point was I wish we had a COVID bubble and I don't think we are technically in a real bubble, not like the ones we've seen from COVID or 2000. PTON ZM PYPL yer plenty of those companies just went up so much. But we have NVDA doing $400 billion a year in revenue with 75% Gross margins with the share price 1 fart from imploding, but also not able to go up that much. I don't think this is a bubble lol.
So are you saying the bubble has popped here? Memory went up 10000% dropped 35% and now we are done? I actually think once the capex spend slows we'll see a huge drawdown. My point was just simply the fact everyone is cautious and every fart in the wind can destroy the AI trade it doesn't seem like it's the crazy bubble people make it out to be. If this was truly a bubble based on air I really wanted to see things like MU $4000, NVDA $400 etc lol. Even the 2021 bubble had some insane numbers. Remember PYPL $300? No one was calling bubble and people were literally trying to buy Zoom at $600 + A share.
