PayPal (PYPL 0.87%) has been a frustrating investment over the years. It has only gained about 60% since it split from eBay in 2015. That's a meager 5.6% annual return. It has significantly underperformed the S&P 500, which is up nearly 150% (11.1% annualized). What makes that underperformance worse is that at its peak in 2021, PayPal stock had surged more than 600%, only to lose nearly all its gain over the last two years. That prior surge suggests that PayPal could have lots of upside potential if it can ...

To say PayPal's (PYPL 0.87%) stock has struggled over the past three years is a bit of an understatement. Heading into 2024, the stock saw negative returns the past three years, and it was down nearly -75% during that period. Looking to spark interest in the stock, new CEO Alex Chriss stated during a CNBC interview that PayPal would "shock the world" at an Innovation event it was holding in late January. The event didn't exactly leave investors in awe, however, as the event focused on PayPal's Artificial In ...

Justin Sullivan Introduction I wanted to revisit PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) after it reported its full-year results and see how the company progressed throughout the year and what is still in store that would help the company turn itself around. I believe the company is a good buy at these prices, as the company seems to be trading at its fair valuation and the dip on the day of the results presents an opportunity to accumulate more shares and wait for what I believe is an inevitable stock price appreciation ...

Justin Sullivan/Getty Images News I rate PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) as a hold, as I believe the management was not clear about the future guidance of the company in the last call for the Q4 2023 results. It's clear that CEO Alex Chriss is making several changes and innovations in order to construct new avenues of growth, but meanwhile, he might need to invest more money in those endeavors as the company faces fierce competition from other players who are investing heavily as well to offer the best products at low ...
