eBay is getting new life from a possible takeover bid by GameStop's Ryan Cohen, who already owns 7% of the float. It has strong free cash flow, four years of rising revenue, accelerating EPS since late 2023 and growth every quarter since September 2021. MarketSurge notes a bullish base breakout, and the target is $125. x.com x.com
eBay's 18.5x multiple rests on earnings that look unsustainable. That valuation is well above most internet and retail peers despite no acceleration in fundamentals, while the trading-card-game tailwind is in its later innings. Rotational flows are the only apparent obstacle to shorting it. x.com x.com
