💳 Loading PYPL at $56.85 & $57.53! 🏦🔥

​I am scaling into PayPal (PYPL). I just added even more to my long-term portfolio with two strategic entries at $56.85 and $57.53.

​We are buying a cash-flow machine at "deep value" multiples usually reserved for dying industries, but PayPal is far from dead. Here is why I am double-downing. 💎📈

​📉 The Setup: Deep Value Meets Technical Floor

​We are currently witnessing one of the most significant valuation disconnects in the S&P 500.

​P/E at All-Time Lows: PYPL is trading at a forward P/E of ~11.5x. Let that sink in. This is a company with a massive network effect trading at a discount to the broader market average (which is ~22x). It's objectively one of the cheapest growth stories in tech. 📉💸

​The "Iron Bottom" Support: DCA-ing into $56.85 and $57.53 which were timed entries. We are retesting a major horizontal support zone ($55.80–$58.00) that has held firm despite multiple sell-offs in late 2025. 🛡️

​Massive Share Buybacks: PayPal is using its $5B+ in annual free cash flow to cannibalize its own shares. At these depressed prices, every dollar of buyback is supercharged, drastically increasing EPS for us long-term holders. 🚀

​🚀 The Catalyst: The 2026 AI & Ads Pivot

​2026 is the year the "narrative" finally catches up to the "numbers."

​AI-Driven Commerce: PayPal's new Transaction Graph Insights and collaboration with Microsoft (Copilot Checkout) are turning transaction data into a goldmine. They are using AI to predict consumer behavior better than almost anyone in the world. 🤖🧠

​Venmo Monetization: The "Pay with Venmo" feature and Venmo debit card adoption are finally hitting critical mass. Venmo is transitioning from a "free social app" to a high-margin revenue engine. 📱💰

​PayPal Ads Manager: The launch of their internal ad network at the start of 2026 allows merchants to target customers at the point of intent. This is a high-margin revenue stream that the market is currently pricing at zero.

​💡 Final Verdict

​The market is pricing PayPal like a legacy bank, but it's operating like a high-tech data powerhouse. Buying at sub-$58 in my opinion is fair value. Will be looking forward to PYPL 2026 earning numbers.
