PayPal Presents a Buying Opportunity, Guggenheim Says

Siraj Sarwar

PayPal (NYSE: PYPL) stock remains the best performers over the last twelve months. Its share price is currently hovering close to the highest level of $121. Although the share price rallied more than 29 per cent in the past year, the market analysts are anticipating further upside in the coming days. They believe the muted investor’s reaction to financial results is offering a buying opportunity for new investors.

PayPal reported several new financial records in the final quarter and fiscal 2019. Its revenue and earnings grew at a double-digit rate. The company anticipates similar growth for fiscal 2020 despite increasing market competition.

Guggenheim is Seeing a Buying Opportunity in PayPal Stock

Guggenheim looks optimistic over the future fundamentals of PayPal. The firm is showing confidence in its expansion in China. The latest Honey acquisition is adding to the firm’s confidence. Its analyst Jeff Cantwell provided a Buy rating, saying the muted stock reaction to the fourth-quarter beat creates an opportunity for investors.

The company had topped fourth-quarter revenue and earnings estimates by $20ml and $0.03 per share. “Transformative purchase of Honey is a significant positive and expects long-term tailwind with expansion into China. PayPal’s risk profile now looks favorable, valuation looks reasonable, and we expect further price appreciation from here,” Jeff Cantwell.
