To The Moon

Ah, Block (SQ), a digital chimera weaving through the labyrinth of fintech. With its stock price doing the limbo from its 2021 heights, everyone's playing detective, wondering if SQ is about to rise like a phoenix. Let's don our Sherlock hats and unearth what's cooking beyond the surface.

Peeking Under the Hood: Block’s Strategic Chess Moves

Finance meets urban vibrancy in Block's digital ecosystem

Square, now Block ($Block(SQ)$), isn't just about card readers and the usual fintech fluff. It's all about Cash App, a digital wonderland with 40 million users doing everything from stock trading to tax filing. It's like a financial Disneyland, especially for the underbanked and those who've had their fill of traditional finance.

The Moolah Mystery: Can Cash App Cash In?

Block’s riddle is monetisation. Cash App's got the numbers, but how's the dough rolling in? Freemium's the game, with freebies and premiums, but can they convert eyeballs into pounds? Can they beat PayPal at their own game or will they end up playing second fiddle in the fintech orchestra?

Cash App vs. the Universe: The Great Battle

Competition's a hungry beast, with PayPal ($PayPal(PYPL)$) prowling and banks suddenly tech-savvy. Block's got style, a user-friendly vibe, and a youthful aura, but can they keep the magic alive? Maybe throwing in direct deposits or tiny loans could jazz up Cash App's repertoire.

The Bitcoin Ballet: Dancing with Volatility

Block's Bitcoin affair adds spice. They've gone all-in, even birthing a Bitcoin baby called Spiral. But hey, Bitcoin's a wild ride, like a rollercoaster on steroids. Brace for ups and downs – it's like investing in a caffeinated dragon.

Analyst Whispers: A Dash of Optimism

Climbing the Market Cap Mountain: Block (SQ)'s Year in Review

Despite the fog, analysts are cautiously chirpy. "Strong Buy" whispers with a pinch of price targets suggest a sprinkle of hope. It's like saying, "Hey, there's light at the end of this blockchain."

The Verdict: Tip-Toe or Cannonball?

Block's a gamble with a glitzy promise. For risk-takers eyeing tomorrow's unicorns, it's a tempting cookie. But cautious folks might want to sip tea while watching Cash App’s dance from a safe distance. Keep your binoculars polished for signs of a solid moneymaking dance routine.

Now, onto the Juicy Numbers:

Come May 02, 2024, Block's earnings should tickle the senses. Picture this – analysts waving £0.62 per share in front of us, a 55% year-on-year wink. Revenues, the heartbeat, expected at £5.73 billion, a 14.8% party from yesteryears.

Analysts’ Crystal Ball:

They’re chanting, "Cash App, show us the money!" Foreseeing £1.51 billion in transaction-based revenue, a +6.4% jig from the past. For subscription-based goodies, £1.61 billion’s the anticipated cherry, +17.9% tastier than before.

Bitcoin’s in the mix too, with £2.61 billion forecasted revenue, a +20.6% salsa. Even hardware's got a slice at £36.75 million, a teeny -1.9% dip but still in the game.

For the grand finale, Square’s expected to showcase £1.72 billion in total revenue, a whopping +33.3% drumroll from the last act. And Cash App’s Bitcoin revenue? Brace yourselves, £2.60 billion’s the star of this show, a +166.9% fireworks display.

Wrap-up:

In this fintech opera, Block's the leading character, dancing between risks and rewards. Analysts play the crystal ball game, but the real show starts when those earnings hit the stage. Buckle up, investors – it's going to be a bumpy, thrilling ride.
