  Barrons with the Best and Worst performers of S&P500 for July. Cognizant( $CTSH) up 43% followed by $PYPL, Yes PayPal at 32% then WorkDay $WDAY at 31%. Looking through this list you guessed it right, TECH had a meltdown. The biggest decliner $SNDK down 46% followed by $GLW down 46%. Both $SNDK and $GLW would have to gain 100% to reach their ATHs for 2026. These were still up 411% and 57% for the year. If I had to wager a bet which would bounce back from here, I would bet it’s $SNDK.

  Fintech: I have been in and out of fintech for many years. I started when Paypal was spun off and got in early on Square after the IPO. I tend to buy the sector when its cheap and then sell it when it gets really expensive. I think this time around I am just going to stick with it as a theme and just trade around my positions as they get expensive or cheap. $SOFI is my one an only neobank. They have massive user growth, deep and growing cross selling, and they have impressive loan engine. I suspect it could get hit if the credit cycle goes bad with over 60% of their revenues coming from those loans. Long term, this should grow into a banking leader. The newer generations are leaving old banks which offer less convenience and services. They could reach 50 to 60 million users over the long term. $AFRM is one of my two Buy Now Pay Later companies. Consumers, especially younger generations, are tired of predatory credit cards. With BNPL, you only get approved for credit when you request it. You don't get a huge spending limit which cause excess spending. If the consumer does not pay, they don't get any more credit. Its an on demand system that works best for both the consumer and the lender. I suspect that BNPL will replace a huge part of the credit card market over time. This is the best of breed company focused in the US. $KLAR is my other BNPL company. They are a global company with over 100 million customers across 28 countries. They also have a banking charter which gives them a lower cost of capital. The management seems sound and the valuation is just a fraction of Affirms. $LMND is the top insurtech company. They are working in P&C with renters, pet and car insurance. They have strong growth and could continue to take market share from older companies who are not where the younger consumer is online and with technology. I have delt with insurance companies and all the BS I had to go through just to get a quote. I had one from Lemonade in just a few minutes. $LIFE is another insurtech company focused in the life insurance space. They use a blend of agent sales and direct to consumer advertising. They are a newer IPO so I don't know the management as well. I do know it trades at just a fraction of the Lemonade valuation. If the fundamentals prove out to be good, this could be a huge winner. It already has been as I bought my position when it was around $10 to $12. $UPST is my first and main credit tech company. I have been play this company for years when it gets cheap. They are a strong and solid company. My only issue with them is their focus is mostly on unsecure personal loans. That makes them a bit more risky. $BETR is my new and more risky credit tech company. They are not public that long and the management is more risky. I do love that they are focused in the mortgage and HELOC space. These are secured loans that are less likely to default. If the management turns out to be strong, this could be a big winner. $CRCL is my one and only play on crypto as a company. I hold a lot of $USDC in my wallets when I am not buying Bitcoin with it. It controls 80% of the market. It now faces a ton of competition so there is a lot or risk. I love $USCD because in my Coinbase Wallet, it earns interest for me while I am waiting to use it for crypto buying.

  @maldives_lexi Because she was the oversight. Angela Kohl wasn’t just the bookkeeper, she was the sole paid staffer, the executive director, and the person with total control of the accounts, working from home. No second set of eyes. No dual-signature requirement. No independent monthly review by the board. Just one person with the login credentials to a charity whose entire reason for existing is to help kids who already lost a parent. That’s how $118k quietly walks out the door over 18 months into a personal PayPal. When the only person “watching the books” is the one emptying them, “oversight” is just a word on a form.

  Issues with Paypal have been resolved. But unfortunately several members that pay via Paypal and had a renewal due over this period lost access. Please check your DMs on Whop for steps to get back in. Those who have regained access please make sure to reclaim the indicators from the indicator access section to regain access to them on TradingView. Please make sure to join back in to save your spot and not join the waitlist queue should you decide to join back later. Apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

  I actually think one of the clearest signs of confidence is what management is doing with capital at $PYPL This company is deploying every spare dollar of FCF into buybacks, and if the current setup persists, it can retire something like 14% of shares a year. That is not how you behave if you think the business is broken beyond repair. It is how you behave when you think the stock is much cheaper than the business. PayPal does not need to become the next hypergrowth story. It just needs to keep shrinking the float while the market eventually wakes up (if it ever does)

  Just a heads up, had a few messages off of people. Looks like that Matt Forth may be at it. Asking to get bets on and or PayPal loans whilst awaiting compensation. Avoid like the plague. Thought he was a sound lad who had his issues but no excuses.

  If you're trying to get the Holostars EN M&G Online tickets, some things I ran into. - They give the list of all the boys, but the application button is the red one underneat all them. - If there are spaces or hyphens in your credit card number, you might get errors when submitting payment. - I had trouble getting my VISA Debit to work but my Mastercard-that-is-actually-Paypal worked.

  Everyone celebrates companies like Stripe, PayPal, Revolut, and Cash App. We trust them with our money, recommend them to friends, and build businesses on top of them. But the moment a Nigerian builds something similar, many of us become the first to predict its failure. Why? Is it because the product is bad, or because we have conditioned ourselves to believe that anything built abroad is automatically better than what is built at home? That mindset is a sign of a person being mentally poor and limited. Flutterwave was built by Nigerians. Paystack was built by Nigerians and went on to become one of Africa's most successful fintech companies. These companies didn't become successful because everyone believed in them from day one. They succeeded because they kept building, improving, and earned the trust of millions. Supporting Nigerian innovation does not mean lowering our standards. It does not mean ignoring security concerns or refusing to criticize poor decisions. It simply means judging our own companies by the same standards we use for foreign companies not by a harsher one. Constructive criticism builds companies. Blind condemnation kills them. There is another challenge we rarely talk about. Too many founders are racing to build the same thing. One payment app succeeds, and suddenly everyone wants to build another payment app. One crypto exchange grows, and dozens more appear. One digital bank trends, and everyone wants to launch another. Innovation is not about seeing what works and copying it. Innovation is about solving problems that nobody else is solving. Nigeria and Africa need builders who will create the infrastructure that powers the next generation of startups. We need breakthroughs in healthcare, education, agriculture, logistics, manufacturing, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, blockchain infrastructure, and countless other sectors that remain underserved. The companies that shape the future won't necessarily be the ones that copy today's winners. They will be the ones bold enough to create tomorrow's opportunities. So before we dismiss another Nigerian startup, ask yourself: If we don't support our own builders, who will? And if every founder is building the same product, who will build the future? The next global technology company can come from Nigeria. But only if we create a culture that rewards originality, demands excellence, and believes that world-class innovation can be built here.

  I’ve had people who hacked into my computer people who hacked into my iPad My PayPal is ****** up My QuickBooks got hacked into and they messed with my invoices and I have created that account just to prove a point and it was proven. People are going down peoples followers list, and targeting people on social media. And this brings me to the past seven months. You have collapse the economy and you’re going to start begging people to pay you and the people that you’re begging to pay you and buy your services and products are the ones that you cyberbullied… Every last celebrity that participated in this every last business owner that participated in this you are going to go out of business by the time this is all through and I promise you I really am praying on your downfall.

  Your donations can be sitting in your account and still not be your money. The moment a creator needs a payment platform to approve their identity, business status, or withdrawal before they can touch what supporters already sent, the problem is bigger than PayPal. That’s custody risk. Creators are taught to obsess over discovery and conversion. But payout rails can choke the business just as fast. You can earn the money. The platform can still hold the keys. I keep coming back to the same point: if you need permission to access your own revenue, you don’t own the business. Owned audience matters. Owned distribution matters. But owned payout rails are part of the same fight. Otherwise “getting paid” is just another feature someone else can turn off.

  After PayPal, Elon Musk could have started another internet company. He says it would have been easy. The internet already had plenty of talented founders and plenty of capital. In his view, one more internet company would not make him especially useful. So he moved toward the two problems he thought could have a bigger effect on the world: sustainable energy and space exploration. It is a brutal filter for choosing what to work on. Forget which market looks easiest. Ask where your effort could make a difference that would otherwise be missing.

  @AskPayPal I created an account using an email & mobile number and I forgot the password. Now when I reset the password it's calling my mobile number for verification but calling isn't working. And I don't have any option to change the mobile number or just continue with email for verification. How do I login?
