  US indices all closed green last night, but same as ever, the calm tape hid a split market. the hottest name was PayPal: a reported ~$53B takeover bid from Stripe + Advent ($60.50/share) sent it +17% on record volume. the twist everyone's pointing at: "the real prize is Venmo." the coldest corner was AI hardware. Dell led down -9.8% (touched -14% intraday), and SanDisk, Micron, HPE, Supermicro and AAOI (-13%) all got dumped with it. but the selling stayed concentrated in high-beta AI hardware, and mega-caps like Apple and Google masked it, so the Nasdaq still closed green. and the extreme end: Lucid ripped +29% after denying a report it was weighing going private or Chapter 11. Hong Kong ran hot too, Hang Seng +1.4%, Tencent +3.9%, Meituan +5.3%. bottom line: the index looks calm, but underneath the money's swapping seats fast, some chasing buyout targets, some fleeing AI hardware, some betting on a distressed bounce.

  @unnuovoinizio1 @antoninaodesssa @tatyanaodesssa I attempted to send money via PayPal. However, as I mentioned before, transfers from Japan result in an error. This has been happening for some time. It is a problem unique to Japan and serves as one of the barriers to support for Ukraine from the Japanese people. Are there any other ways to send money?

  @147Aurora @grok @theallinpod zooming out to the ancient peaks just spotlights how spectacularly paypal cratered from that 360b fantasy land down to the current rubble but a 28 percent bump off recent levels still delivers actual cash today instead of praying for some mythical rebound that never materialized. the board can call it lowball all they want yet history proves waiting around rarely fixes a broken growth story like this one.

  $PYPL - here is what will actually happen. In a very real sense, it is out management's hands: • PayPal Board receives credible unsolicited offer (from Stripe and Advent); Revlon duty kicks in. • Board immediately engages counsel and investment bank. • Board forms a committee to oversee the situation. • Committee has the i-bank suggest who else could bid. • Mid-process, someone strategically leaks the Stripe bid. This creates a new dynamic: given no large $PYPL anchor owner, the shareholder base quickly begins turning over from "long-term owners" to "event-driven / arb." Those new shareholders aren't looking for a long-term compounder, further pressuring the company to seek a takeout path. • Management and an i-bank work up the "stay independent" plan. Unfortunately, the comps are horrible ($FISV & $GPN), making 3rd-party bids hard to beat, even if you prefer to execute independently. • Conduct an initial IOI process to see if alternative bidders might come in higher than $60.50. They will. • Depending on what comes back, may expand outreach to additional bidder groups. Data room and diligence process become formalized. • Offer is going up from $60.50 to $65, then $68 (or whatever). Stripe probably competes in that range. • Board cannot justify the "stay independent" path. • Bank and committee whittle the bidder group down to a small set of finalists. • Seek "best and final" (sometimes more than once!). • Announce a deal anywhere from $60.50 to $70+. • Game over. I'm not saying that PayPal cannot stay independent and public; it could. I am saying it likely won't stay independent and public. If you don't have an anchor owner who can stand up to the dual forces of Revlon + Event-Driven shareholders, the momentum of the "process" takes over and makes it very difficult to say no to a credible offer at a premium. The die is already cast.

  @FinanceNinjaB @DavidSacks Paypal’s biggest issue is its brand name is on a decline - similar to eBay in warly 2020’s. They have solid foundation but a lot of headwind in growth. Not sure if they can get the process targrt you are looking for with the current state.

  Elon Musk Bullied kid, Reader,Born 1971 in South Africa. Got bullied badly in school, once hospitalized. His escape? Books. He’d read 10+ hours daily - encyclopedias, sci-fi, rocket manuals. Rejected 3 times,At 28 he started PayPal. Sold it for $180M. Then he tried getting a job at Google. They said no. He used the money to fund 3 crazy ideas everyone laughed at. All-in on “impossible”*: 2008 was his worst year. SpaceX rockets failed 3 times. Tesla was weeks from bankruptcy. He split his last cash between both companies. If both failed, he’d be broke. Both survived. People called him “delusional”. But he bets on problems that matter: electric cars, space, AI. His rule: “When something is important enough, you do it even if odds aren’t favorable.” From getting punched in school to building rockets that land themselves.

  @thetrainline is the payment system down? I’ve been trying to book and I’ve tried Visa, Amex, PayPal, and Apple Pay. Any idea on when this’ll be resolved?

  @ebloch @ChatGPTapp When I'm in ChatGPT Finance, I can see my balance on my PayPal Mastercard, but when I tried to connect it to Synchrony in ChatGPT Finance, I got an error. The only transactions in ChatGPT Finance with my PayPal Mastercard are payments I have made, not purchases.
