  Don’t start making a ******* problem about my paypal link. It’s not possible to change a paypal-me link. What means that I need to make a whole different paypall account. And that’s way too much effort to do for you losers. So shut ******** up & $end me everything you have 🖕🏼💸

  @ztipme Go on then why is my take wrong? You probably don’t realise I was full port PayPal at one point. I know the business very well. I actually think it’s worth $80-90 per share. So we probably have a more similar view than you think. But you cannot discount the fact the business is declining and is under constant pressure from competitors. It also has a very stubborn, toxic corporate culture which is the biggest problem of all. This is what happens when a good business gets mismanaged for a long period of time. The moves taken under Schulman between 2015-2023 broke the company permanently. Alex Chriss could have turned it around imo if he had taken over earlier in 2021 maybe. But it was too late and too much damage has been done. I am open to opposing views though

  Question for @PayPal executives are when other sees value that they can scale why they have been so useless to scale Stripe is right in making the offer as they see the problem is mgmt and strategy Selling @paypal at $60$ and change is a joke nevertheless

  Elon Musk is no Albert Einstein. Einstein published papers on Brownian motion, the photoelectric effect, special relativity, and E=mc². His general theory of relativity revolutionized physics. His works paved the way for GPS, smartphones, solar energy and nuclear power. Einstein was a vocal advocate for civil rights, education, and global peace. Musk built PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, X and xAI. But Musk is not an advocate for anything that would benefit the world. Instead, Musk highlights the need to avoid too much empathy. Musk raises the alarm regularly about low fertility. Despite the low fertility, albeit mainly in the Northern Hemisphere, Musk claims humans have to expand to Mars. In Musk's best known foray outside his companies, he headed up the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). DOGE shut down USAID, established by JFK in 1961. Before being shut down, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) was the largest funding agency for humanitarian and development aid worldwide. Elon Musk said "USAID is a ball of worms. There is no apple. And when there is no apple you just need to get rid of the whole thing. That’s why it’s got to go. It’s beyond repair,” He later posted, “We spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper. Could gone to some great parties. Did that instead.” A peer reviewed study in the Lancet provided a thorough counterfactual study of the impact of USAID over the preceding 21 years and a "what if" study examining the impact of shutdown to 2030. This finding indicates that 91,839,663 all-age deaths, including 30,391,980 in children younger than 5 years, were prevented by USAID funding over the 21-year study period. Forecasting models predicted that the current steep funding cuts could result in more than 14,051,750 additional all-age deaths, including 4,537,157 in children younger than age 5 years, by 2030. That's 2.34 times the 6,000,000 deaths in the Holocaust.

  Premarket movers Mag 7stocks are mostly higher (Apple +0.6%, Amazon +0.3%, Microsoft +0.3%, Tesla +0.2%, Meta Platforms +0.2%, Alphabet -0.5%, Nvidia -0.2%) ASML Holding NV ADRs (ASML) gain 3% after the company lifted its annual sales forecast for the second time this year and laid out plans to increase production as a surge in artificial intelligence spending drives demand for the Dutch company’s chip-making machines. BlackRock (BLK) gains 4% after pulling in $192 billion of net client cash in the second quarter, with investors pouring money into exchange-traded funds and pushing total assets above $15 trillion for the first time. Elevance Health (ELV) falls 7% after boosting its profit guidance by less than Wall Street had hoped, as the company grapples with recent federal policy changes that have made healthcare more expensive. Peer health insurers are also lower, with Humana (HUM) down 1.6% and Centene (CNC) falling 4%. Lionsgate Studios (LION) climbs 7% after Reuters reported that the company is exploring a sale and has attracted takeover interest from Bollore Group. Reuters cited three unidentified people familiar with the matter. PayPal (PYPL) jumps 20% after Reuters reported Stripe and private equity company Advent ​International have made a joint offer to ‌buy PayPal for $60.50 per share, valuing the payments firm at more than $53 billion. Pentair (PNR) tumbles 22% after the water treatment company cut its adjusted earnings per share guidance for the full year. The company also said it appointed Robert Fishman as interim CFO after Nicholas Brazis resigned on July 10 to pursue another opportunity at a private company. Phoenix Education (PXED) drops 10% after the online education company trimmed its net revenue guidance for the full year. SK Hynix ADRs (SKHY) fall 6%. SpaceX (SPCX) is up 0.7% after closing on Tuesday just $1 above the IPO price. (Source BBG)

  @pitdesi It’s insane to me a company like PayPal is worth so much when their product is fundamentally broken. It will randomly charge to the checking account and not the credit card saved as default. Meaning it can’t be trusted. This is a known problem they just don’t give a ****.

  they're going to come for a lot more of us and a lot of us don't even have real bank accounts anymore - just these technofash-owned-and-operated online moneyholders like paypal, cashapp and venmo - who already shut down Palestinian and solidarity accounts daily.

  just heard a podcast ad with a weird mix. the person speaking was panned about 90% right, music pretty far left. made no sense, sounded terrible, jarring experience. very effective! I'm wondering why PayPal used such a poor audio engineer, so I am thinking more about PayPal.

  Ive been saying for a while "Something isnt right in the MKT' And im referring to valuation being way too high, and having weights of some companies be far too big in 'indexes' which passive funds only amplify the problem. IF the stock mkt valuations are too high, Whats it say abt private mkts when Stripe as a private company, can raise private funds to buy paypal??? Its that Private valuations are even worse. reckoning is coming, dont be caught getting nickels in front of a steam roller waiting till the last second

  @hulu_support when signing up via on screen QR code — redirect to mobile web site — use PayPal … it’s impossible to then tell what or which email address is used for the account creation. seems like a broken loop.
