Shares of $PYPL are down as much as 7% in extended trading. The company reported missed operating margin estimates of 21.4%, estimate of 22%. Conversely, the company's revenue was slightly above analysts' estimates, coming in at $7.29 billion versus $7.27 billion. Earnings per share were also higher than expected at $1.16 versus $1.15.

The company's stock peaked during the Covid era when its price was at $308, since then the stock price has been steadily declining. The stock found its bottom at $58.95.

Do you see an opportunity for this company in the future and are you buying at such low prices? Or are you waiting for an even lower price?

For me, $PYPL is an interesting opportunity at current prices.

I already looked at the company and did some analysis but then I forgot about this company, so thanks for reminding me :). Around that $60 I would probably think about buying it.

I would reconsider the purchase after such a drop.

Unfortunately with the results, I'm rather annoyed that as I'm looking at big tech this week, plus the US downgrade is probably the main news I would say, so I missed this and although I have $PYPL as well, I dare say it was a bit expected, not so bad results, but worse yes, plus the loss of users and the change of CEO, these are big events to be uncertain about. I did today although an investor is not supposed to do that when not a trader, so closed a position against, hence short. I think we will see more below. My guess at about $60, so I figure I just need to go down another $2-3 and cover my loss from the drop, then I'm out.

I would like to learn trading too, I'm just at the beginning. It's a lot of stuff and I need a personal coach, like in some sport.

Around the $60 mark, I think it was a steal. I'm a little sorry to see it go, but I don't mind. I have a tiny position in $PYPL, so I'm waiting for us to go higher.

I have a small position too, unfortunately I was buying during the Covid days 😅 So I have learned to live with red numbers on $PYPL. I was quite surprised by the market reaction to the results, I didn't expect the operating margin even by a fraction to have such an impact on the company.
