PayPal Share Buybacks?!

$PayPal(PYPL)$ is beaten badly in the past year due to high interest rates and reduced consumer spending.

However, things might be taking a good turn for PayPal with the recent agreement that KKR (private equity firm) had with PayPal to purchase a huge chunk of buy now pay later loans from PayPal. 

With the proceeds, PayPal intends to allocate close to $1 billion for shares buyback this year. With the disposal of the loans, it also effectively reduces PayPal's exposure to credit risk and increases the company's free cash flow. This is definitely a good piece of news for investors. 

I'm excited for the future of PayPal in 2023. What about you?

    While it's true that PayPal faced some challenges in the past year, it seems like they're ready to turn the tables and show us what they're made of. With the recent agreement with KKR, they're not just bouncing back, they're doing it with style.

    By selling a significant portion of their buy now pay later loans, PayPal is not only reducing their exposure to credit risk but also boosting their free cash flow. It's like they're shedding the extra weight and getting ready to flex their financial muscles. And let's not forget the cherry on top – a whopping $1 billion allocated for share buybacks. Talk about investing in themselves!

    So, my friend, it looks like PayPal is gearing up for an exciting future in 2023. With these strategic moves, they're setting the stage for potential growth and enticing opportunities. As an investor, I can't help but feel a surge of excitement for what's to come.
