United’s Big Order 🛫

The U.S. “degenerate economy” is getting its latest entrant, with FanDuel parent company Flutter Entertainment making its debut on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) today. 🤩

With that said, the company did not receive the traditional fanfare it would in a standard initial public offering (IPO). That’s because it was listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in May 2019, and its American depository receipts (ADR) have traded over the counter under the ticker $PDYPY for years.

It’s been a rough few years for payment giant PayPal, with shares falling 85% peak-to-trough. Recently, the stock has begun to rebound with other beaten-down tech names but remains about 80% below all-time highs. In other words, it would need to nearly 5x its share price to reach those levels again. 📈

While that may seem a ways off, investors have recently pushed shares to their best three-day run since the end of 2022. That’s because the company promised to roll out new “customer-backed innovation” at an event next Thursday, with its new CEO Alex Chriss saying, “It is very clear what we need to do.”
