Cadbury Capital Investments (@cadburycapital) reportedDaily Brief (28 August) 1. PayPal ($PYPL ): reports that the Advent/Stripe consortium walked away from takeover talks sent shares plunging as much as 14%. Although some analysts flagged factors that could support a rebound, I am always going to call it the beautiful PainPal. 2. Marvell ($MRVL ) posted a strong quarter but shares fell as much as 8% and headed for their worst day in a month, with investors fixated on delayed timing of the Google AI deal revenue. 3. Fed rate-path uncertainty spiked after Kevin Warsh's hawkish comments pushed hike odds higher, turning the September decision into a coin flip. Market went green regardless but it did not sustain that long and we saw a delayed reaction to Fed’s comments. 4. Retail earnings were mixed but skewed positive: Gap/Old Navy parent $GAP jumped as much as 15% on an 11th straight quarter of comp-sales growth, while Walmart ($WMT ) quietly settled a federal opioid lawsuit without disclosing terms. Good news for $GAP is good news for $ZETA 5. Software seems officially back. Autodesk ($ADSK) raised guidance on strong Q2 revenue growth and Salesforce ($CRM) jumped on a Q2 beat, while Rubrik ($RBRK) sold off as investors questioned its results. 6. Amazon ($AMZN) gained about 4% after Evercore argued agentic AI could boost its retail growth outlook. 7. Eli Lilly ($LLY) got an FDA nod expanding Mounjaro's use for heart risk reduction. 8. Take-Two ($TTWO) landed a Netflix tie-in ahead of GTA VI. Netflix servers went down briefly as gamers flooded to watch the trailer. RATE HIKE and VIX SPIKE MIGHT BE COMING FOR US THIS SEPTEMBER.

Matt | The Value Way (@TheValueWay) reportedI find it interesting PayPal fell ~13% this week after Stripe & Advent walked away from their $60.50/share takeover bid. At ~$54, $PYPL now trades at roughly: ~10x 2026 adjusted earnings ~8x adjusted FCF I think that is interesting because PayPal doesn’t need to return to high growth for the maths to work. Management is guiding to ~$5.38 of adjusted EPS and $6bn+ of adjusted FCF, while also planning roughly $6bn of buybacks this year. They’ve already reduced shares outstanding from ~920m to ~862m in six months. So even if total earnings barely grow, continued buybacks can still drive EPS higher. On current EPS alone: 10x = ~$54 12x = ~$65 15x = ~$81 If earnings hold up, buybacks continue and the market eventually decides PayPal deserves something closer to 15x earnings, you don’t need heroic growth assumptions to get a good return. Michael Burry has also argued the $60.50 offer was too low, putting his own lower-end intrinsic value estimate around $75–80, with a takeover value potentially closer to $100. So my thesis is: “Can PayPal protect its moat, keep generating ~$6bn of FCF, aggressively retire shares and eventually earn a less pessimistic multiple?” If yes, management's decision to turn down ~$60.50 could look like a great move!
