$PYPL still stuck in wait-and-see mode 😐

Deutsche Bank keeps its Hold and $XX PT
here’s the rundown:
✅ strong two-sided network
✅ Fastlane + Venmo monetization = long-term optionality
✅ Braintree/PSP moves could boost profitability

but…
⚠️ Branded Checkout—its highest-margin engine—is still sluggish
⚠️ pandemic tailwinds are fading
⚠️ take rate pressure from PSP channels
⚠️ tough competition from $STRIP and $ADYEY

bottom line?
until Branded volume growth proves it can hit 8–10% sustainably, $PYPL might stay in neutral gear 🛑📉
