  PayPal Slumps After Buyout Talks Collapse: What Just Happened & Why It Matters PayPal just lost its lifeline — and the stock got obliterated. Stripe and Advent International walked away from a $53 billion buyout. The stock crashed 12-17% in a single session, from $62 to $52. JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley had committed the money. Now it's dead. What Actually Happened In July, Stripe and Advent offered $60.50 per share — a 28% premium. PayPal's board wanted $70. The deal died. Talks revived in mid-August. Then on August 27, Bloomberg dropped the bomb: collapsed for good. The stock went from $62 to $50.98 in pre-market. A $10 billion wipeout before breakfast. Why They Walked Away - Price gap: PayPal wanted $70, buyers offered $60.50. Too far apart. - Regulatory risk: A combined Stripe-PayPal would process $3.7 trillion annually. The FTC and EU would force divestitures of Braintree or Venmo. Why the Market Crushed the Stock PayPal's entire rally this quarter was built on deal hope. The stock was up 40%+ since June. Not because earnings were great — because investors thought Stripe would rescue them. Now? The rescue is gone. And PayPal has to face ugly reality: - Revenue growing just 4% - Active accounts flat at 439 million - The "PayPal button" moat eroding as Apple Pay and Google Pay take over The stock fell back to pre-rumor levels. All the deal premium? Evaporated. What PayPal Actually Is Today - Market cap: ~$52 billion (was $360 billion in 2021) - Revenue: $33.2 billion, growing 4% - Free cash flow: $6.4 billion - Stock: From $300+ in 2021 to $52 today This is a company that prints cash but can't grow. It processes nearly $2 trillion in payments but trades at 8-10x earnings. The market sees terminal decline. The Fintech Valuation Warning Stripe is worth $159 billion private. PayPal is $52 billion public. Yet PayPal processes similar volume and generates $6 billion in free cash flow. The difference? Stripe is growing. PayPal is not. Investors pay 50x revenue for growth. They pay 8x earnings for stagnation. PayPal is the latter. If the original fintech giant trades like a utility, what does that mean for every other fintech unicorn? What Investors Should Watch 1. Don't chase M&A rumors — PayPal rallied 40% on deal hope, gave it all back in a day. 2. Fintech ETFs are risky — ARKF, FINX hold PayPal. When the bellwether collapses, the whole basket suffers. 3. Indian fintech fundraising gets harder — Paytm, PhonePe, Razorpay watch this closely. If PayPal trades at 8x earnings, why should Indian fintechs trade at 30x? Bottom Line PayPal went from "takeover target" to "turnaround story" overnight. The $53 billion bid proved it has value. The collapse proved that value isn't enough. For 20 years, PayPal was the king of online payments. Today, it's a $52 billion company fighting for relevance. When your best hope is getting acquired and even that fails, you have a problem. The fintech graveyard is full of companies that were once "too big to fail." PayPal isn't there yet. But it's walking in that direction. Is PayPal a value trap at $52, or a genuine bargain?

  So you're saying this dude got 50 mil in venture capitalistism funds, and says we can't own money, the companies like cash app venmo and paypal in my point of view are scrubbing data to make customers look like they lost nothing... thats a breach of trust and is punishable and those in decision positions will be held liable. I don't want the see Xmoney go down the same path.!!

  @solari_the They say cash is king, and it does grant you more freedom than a credit card or a PayPal account. Trouble is . . . products are not always available locally to buy with cash . . and online purchasing betrays your privacy.

  @Safaricom_Care @SafaricomPLC we need to understand where our money is disappearing to since you don’t want to clarify what the problem is. It has now been over a week and nothing. On @PayPal money was transferred but it is only your app that says it’s pending ffs

  @rasmus1610 @bot The PayPal login being the one manual step is actually the right shape for this — checkout is where you want a human in the loop anyway. Curious whether it handled the cart/shipping choices itself or just followed the exact product link you gave it.

  Hey @PayPal, why do your customer service agents keep dodging me? Three separate agents have abruptly closed our chat today right when I asked them to resolve my issue This is incredibly frustrating. Please DM me so I can actually get some real help #CustomerService #BadService

  @Aerea_caeles If you're referring to what happened to what happens around February when my PayPal account was stolen by my ex-bestfriend, I asked the clients to please request refunds from PayPal immediately several times because I never had access to that account again. I explained the topic in detail here and on Instagram. Some people completed the process and received their money back without any problems. There were 2 people who had problems with their banks, one ghosted me when I tried to explain to the that they should insist with PayPal, another commission never responded to my progress reports, and another asked me to do their commission because I think the bank didn't want to give them their money back and I did it without any problem ª In fact, I still have the records.
