PayPal's raised earnings and free-cash-flow guidance supports rejecting Stripe and Advent's $60.50-per-share offer. The shares now trade around $57, below the rejected bid, but that does not make the rejection a mistake. x.com 

PayPal's downside finally looks done after a 10-year round trip, leaving the stock undervalued at a P/E of 8 and a PEG ratio of 0.8. A solid Q2 report could start a recovery back to $60+. x.com 

PayPal's cost cuts and reserve releases prop up short-term numbers, while investing for growth wastes time. Its slow bleed gives delusional bulls hope, making it the ultimate value trap; it should not be a public company. x.com 

PayPal's selloff makes it even more attractive to a strategic buyer. The stock trades at about $5 per share of 2026 EPS guidance, yet is being dumped because the long restructuring timeline leaves "no urgent reason to buy it." x.com 

PayPal's latest news is screaming bullish, and the stock trades at just 8x forward earnings and 1x sales. The catch is price: fundamentals and technicals both need to align for a true recovery, and the market currently prefers paying 156x forward earnings for Marvell. x.com 

PayPal's near-flat growth and rising checkout competition leave it a Grade C, prove-it story. Q3 FY26 revenue rose just 2%; operating income fell 8% as restructuring charges rose from $69 million to $255 million, and net income fell 14%. The business still earns over $1 billion a quarter, but it is treading water. x.com 

PayPal's beat-and-raise quarter supports the bull case. Per @DeItaone, Q2 EPS was $1.38 versus $1.28 expected, revenue $8.68B versus $8.47B and payment volume $486.5B versus $468.5B, and full-year adjusted EPS guidance rose to about $5.38. PayPal plans $6B of buybacks this year and at least $1.5B of cost savings over 2-3 years, though it expects a low-single-digit decline in Q3 adjusted EPS. x.com 

Netflix stock needs to break its steep stage 4 decline before it is worth owning; until then it is a falling knife. It remains a far better business and stock than PayPal, an OG FAANG that should make a comeback, run quickly and could 2x–3x when it turns. The plan is to watch for a base. x.com  x.com 

PayPal is a value trap with a great story until a real catalyst appears. At about 8x forward earnings it is near a decade low and cheaper than JPMorgan, but cheapness has been the thesis for two years while it kept getting cheaper. A re-rating needs a trigger: a buyer, a turn in Venmo monetization, or price carving a higher low to prove the bleed is over. x.com 

PayPal is worth much more than Stripe's reported $53 billion takeover offer, and its board reportedly rejected the bid as inadequate. PayPal makes over $5 billion a year and is growing, buys back about 7% of its shares annually, and traded at just 9x earnings before the news and 11x the offer. $75 a share should be the bare minimum, and a bidding war may follow. x.com
