PayPal May Have Finally Bottomed Out

The pullback in PayPal may be overdone, we noted on November 9.

We also noted:

With the pullback from $304.08 becoming overkill, keep an eye on the stock. Even the pile-on of lowered price targets is overdone.

  • Citi lowered its target to $300 from $350
  • RBC Capital lowered its target to $298 from $322
  • Baird lowered its target. To $290 from $325
  • Deutsche Bank lowered its from $360 to $260

With a great deal of negativity priced in, we could see a near-term bounce.  Plus, if PYPL can hold $204.58, the excessively oversold stock could rally back to its 50-day moving average around $261.09, near-term.  We’re just waiting for the weak hands to leave.

So far, it looks like we were right.

At the moment, shares of PYPL are up $6.45 to $208.45.  From here, we’d like to see an initial bearish gap refill around $230, and potential move back to $270, near-term.  Plus, it may not be long before other analysts start jumping on the bullish bandwagon.
