PayPal Holdings Inc. (PYPL) has been in the spotlight recently with some analysts expressing optimism about its recovery under new leadership. Several experts note that the company is returning to solid growth after facing competition from buy-now, pay-later firms and other payment platforms. The stock has been characterized by positive chart patterns, with some analysts observing a cup formation indicating potential for future appreciation. Despite recent gains in stock price, there are concerns about ongoing competition and limitations on growth. Still, many believe that strategic moves, including potential technological advancements and an expanding user base with services like Venmo, could pave the way for further successes.

It reports Tuesday. The new CEO is returning PYPL to solid growth. Once dominant, PYPL sank to the buy-now, pay-later companies, but seems to be returning.

PARTIAL BUY

A fine CEO. Buy some shares now, and if it declines before February, buy more.

(A Top Pick Oct 28/24, Down 1%)

He likes this company and chart. The 4-year chart shows a base, then break out. One of the best tech charts, because it's not overdone. The company is making strides in getting its business into different venues.

Buying value in technology is often a misstep, but this one came through. Has resurrected growth in a few areas. Venmo has helped. Had a nice move, so he took his $$ off the table.

TOP PICK

He called up a five year chart to look at the bigger picture pattern. He likes the cup formation with a trend down and then trending up but not aggressively. The lows and highs are getting higher. It is not overbought. There are enough fundamentals that the stock could do well.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 07/23, Up 41%)

A year ago, the stock was very out of favour and losing market share. But they have restructured to impress the market. In recent days has taken some profits. It still has growth constraints.

0
BUY

The new CEO is making big, strategic deals behind the scenes. He expects something with the Near-Field communication chip. Pay with Venmo is a plus. This continues to make 52-week highs that nobody is paying attention to. He's sticking with it.

DON'T BUY

It was a pioneer in its field but there is lots of competition now - it is not in a propriatory space. Asia has good opportunities for this sector but PayPal is too expensive for Asia.

Our PAST TOP PICK with PYPL has triggered its stop at $58.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  When combined with our previous recommendations, this will result in a net investment loss of 2%.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate PYPL, who serves 35 million online merchants, as a TOP PICK.  Operating income grew 15% over the quarter supported by widening margins.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while shares are aggressively bought back and debt is reduced.  It trades at 15x earnings, 3x book and supports a 21% ROE.  We continue to recommend a stop at $58, looking to achieve $76 -- upside potential of 24%.  Yield 0%

(Analysts’ price target is $76.54)

BUY

Owns shares, and expecting further growth. New management team will lead the company into better times. Competition from Apple not a concern, but believes technology is still relevant.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We again reiterate PYPL as a TOP PICK, but continue to recommend a tight stop at $58.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is aggressively retired and shares bought back.  It trades at 15x earnings -- about 50% lower than the five year average PE -- and supports a 21% ROE.  Market analysts like the changes being made incorporating AI, so we will see if the market agrees.  We look for upside towards $71 -- potential gain of 18%.  Yield 0%

WATCH

He used to avoid this, but its PE has fallen to 15x PE. New changes include a new CEO and will launch an ad business. Interesting to look at this and he is warming up to this.

(A Top Pick Apr 06/23, Down 10%)

He shouldn't have bought value in the tech sector. There are other pay platforms coming out now. However it has done some re-structuring with new management, has massive cash flow with a clean balance sheet. Trades at 11 X forward earnings.
