As of closed, shares of the fintech specialist fell about 4%.\nSo what\nThere are three main stories and market forces that could be affecting Square's stock price today:\n\nOn a positive note, the company announced the launch of its Square Register hardware in Canada, which could bring larger sellers in the key international market into Square's ecosystem.\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: SQUARE.\n\nOn the other hand, we learned that PayPal is spending $2.7 billion to acquire Japanese buy now, pay later (BNPL) company Paidy. Not only is Japan one of the few international markets where Square has a presence, this also signals that PayPal is pushing into the BNPL space more aggressively than previously thought. Remember that Square is spending $29 billion to acquire Afterpay, and PayPal becoming more interested in BNPL could change the competitive dynamics.\nFinally, there is quite a bit of general weakness in the tech sector today. While all three major averages are in the red, the tech-heavy Nasdaq is by far the worst performer, and many other high-growth tech stocks are among the market's worst performers.\n\nNow what\nThe two company-specific news items are likely not what's causing today's move. While PayPal's push into the Japanese BNPL market is certainly not a positive factor for Square, it isn't likely to be a major needle-mover affecting the business.\nToday's move seems to be fueled by severe weakness in growth stocks more than anything else. While it's worth keeping an eye on the competitive pressures in the BNPL space, PayPal's news shouldn't be too alarming to shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":32,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
