If you haven't been watching closely, you might have missed some big changes in the stock market this year. The Russell 2000, a group of smaller companies, lost its profits for the year. The same happened with the S&P 500 equal weight, another group of companies. Bonds, which people invest in for steady returns, have decreased in value by 14% this year. However, the Nasdaq 100, which includes many big technology companies, has grown a whopping 36%! This is a big differen...

So as you regards probably noticed $PYPL just dropped 7%. If you took time to actually read the Q2 results you will quickly notice that this reaction is stupid af. Revenue is up 7% yoy, operating income up 48%. What’s more important though is that the payment volume is up 11% which means they are holding their market position against Visa and Mastercard. My thesis is that Wallstreet is dumb and forgot to read that the 350mil. negative cashflow is caused by the buy now pay lat...

$PayPal (PYPL.US)$ It is impossible to restore the upward momentum without certainty in the new CEO candidate. Investors have no confidence and no motivation. Only when a new leader is determined, there is a chance to break the current plight. However, the key is whether the market accepts this new leader or not. The company is a good company, although its ability to make money is not as good as before, overall it is relatively pragmatic and healthy. If you have the ability, you can do some cost averaging on short-term trading. Otherwise, you can only endure slowly.

The price chart of $PayPal (PYPL.US)$ does not look nice.
If you invested in the stock 5 years ago, chances are all the capital gains accrued would have now been a lost.
So is this the end of Paypal stock?
Here are some points to take note of.
1. Resulst are actually good due to huge growth in operating income
GAAP revenue grew 9% YoY to USD 7.04 billion. But the real highlight here is the operating income growth, which surged 41% to USD ...

This is an entertainment investment, also known as retaliatory investment.
I have been brainwashed by luxury goods for many years. I remember when I first started working in 2006, I spent more than 1,000 yuan to buy a Longchamp plastic bag. It wasn't until 2013 when I traveled to Europe that I bought my first bag from Prada for over 10,000 yuan. I was entangled with desires for consumption, paying attention to various luxury goods. If I couldn't afford them, I would feel jealous and envious. If I bought them, I would get tired of them. I always thought that being able to afford these luxury goods was a way to prove myself. Until one time when I went to buy a bag from Louis Vuitton, the salesperson used to work at Hermès, so I asked her how they decide whether to give a customer a bag or not. She said their philosophy is to find customers who identify with their brand, who like their brand, and who incorporate Hermès into their lives, people who share the same philosophy as them.
I suddenly feel that buying just one bag doesn't prove anything. Can I keep buying different bags?
At that time in 2018, I could already afford Hermès. $Hermes International SA (HESAY.US)$The money for the bag, when I walked into the store window, I found that I didn't want to spend this money to prove that I have money and the ability to earn. I don't have the ability to own Hermès until I die, so I just let it go, feeling relieved.
At the same time, I also feel the ability to afford it, I can choose to buy or not, and I no longer have the desire.
In recent years, I have been more interested in insurance, stocks, and real estate, things that can make money again after buying, and I don't care about luxury goods.
