Optus (@Optus) reported@enngees Hi there, customers can recharge their service or purchase add-ons online using a credit/debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Amex, or JCB) and PayPal. An Optus service needs to connect to the Optus network for activation, so we generally recommend setting up and activating the SIM once they've arrived in Australia. If you're still having trouble recharging, please send us a DM, and we'll take a closer look into this for you. -Talia

OwenCarter (@OwenCarter_k) reported$PYPL: Acquisition hopes dashed; retail investors debate "value trap" vs. "undeserved sell-off." Review of the previous trading session: PYPL plunged 12.7% last Friday, ranking among the worst performers on the Nasdaq and S&P 500. Capital that had flowed in based on acquisition rumors during the previous quarter exited en masse; discussions on X shifted from "how much would Stripe pay?" to "what is PayPal actually worth as a standalone business?" (Source: Reuters) Key Event: Stripe and Advent reportedly abandoned plans to acquire PayPal; the prior offer was around $60.50 per share (implying a valuation of ~$53 billion), but negotiations collapsed due to disagreements over pricing, financing, and regulatory issues. Bullish Views: PayPal’s valuation is already significantly lower than that of most payment industry peers; Venmo, Checkout, and its crypto business still hold value for potential spin-offs. The new CEO is driving business restructuring and cost controls, meaning future earnings recovery need not rely solely on acquisitions. The current valuation may still attract interest from other private equity firms or payment companies. Bearish Views: The recent rally was driven primarily by M&A premiums; following the deal's collapse, the stock must be repriced based on fundamentals. PayPal’s branded checkout market share continues to be squeezed by competitors like Apple Pay and Shop Pay. Without a rebound in revenue growth, the low valuation could persist; one cannot assume a market bottom simply because the stock has fallen sharply. Trading Strategy: Avoid trying to catch a rebound immediately after the initial sharp drop; first, observe whether the price stabilizes in the $52–$54 range. A recovery above $57–$58 is required to confirm that panic selling has been absorbed; until then, it is better to watch from the sidelines rather than taking a heavy position in hopes of another buyer emerging.
