Obviously, anyone who is stuck with this stock will be trying to make a case for keeping it. Unfortunately, the whole site has been crippled with incompatible interface changes, and technical glitches that have demolished it's new rating concepts and a bi-polar decision making process in their policies division. They will never be Amazon, they were best when they were just being Ebay.Sell now if you bought at 24 a few weeks ago!It's not too late!

eBay can only rise from here. The stock hasn't been battered a lot in the crash at the stock markets. The year low is $25.10 and the high is $40.73. In the next year, I would rate the stock pretty high and very close to its year high. The reasons are simple. eBay has been exploring new markets. They have eBay India and they have PayPal which is very popular. Even though there are competitors to PayPal, their service has been the best till now. eBay has also opened up a new regional portal called Kijiji. They call it the rural marketplace and I have worked on the project. I really think this...
4/17 - "While the company should continue to produce solid growth thanks to the strength of its business model PayPal -- along with international opportunities -- these positives are already reflected in EBAY shares.
What's more, we are concerned with slowing consumer spending, increasing competition and the potential for its profit margins to contract further. That said, the stock trades at a reasonable valuation of 18x to 19x our 2008 EPS estimate. As a result, we maintain our Hold rating and expect EBAY shares to perform in line with the overall market this year."
4/17 - "There are several things that are still going unaddressed with eBay. For starters, their customer experience is not improving to become a truly Personalized experience. Their Reviews are still not well-integrated to where the products are showcased or listed, offering a fragmented user experience, although some moves have been taken to improve the feedback process. Further, they are still dependent on Google for customer acquisition."
"Skype is doing well in terms of actual numbers and growth, although it has cost eBay dearly in terms of write-offs. I said earlier that eBay should ...
3/31 - "The quarter was dominated by howls of outrage from eBay (EBAY) sellers who boycotted the site, screamed bloody murder, etc., over eBay's new fee changes, but the move appears to have worked. As Bear's Bob Peck reports, listings are up more than expected, and eBay's stock is up 15%+ off its recent (screamingly cheap) low:"
3/26 - "Citigroup says that to date they have tracked 574MM Total Core listings consisting of 196MM U.S. listings and 378MM international listings. Combined with the estimated 89MM store listings we have tracked QTD, they estimate total listings growth improved to +13% Y/Y, tracking ahead of Citi's 1Q08 growth estimate of 11% Y/Y."
"Jefferies notes eBay's February pricing tweaks are having positive effects on 1Q results, with 1Q listings pointing to a healthy 9% Y/Y growth and translating into results likely at the higher-end of expectations. With the stock's pullback, EBAY is the cheapest...
3/27 - "Shares of the online auction site eBay, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY) have been surging today after positive remarks from Banc of America Securities analyst Brian J. Pitz, who stated that the company is on track for a "solid" first quarter to the year.
Pitz made his remarks after analyzing the company's recent proprietary listings and conversion rate tracking data. As a result of his findings, Pitz gives the stock a price target of $38, and lifted his revenue forecast for the quarter from $2.03 billion up to $2.08 billion."
Ebay Shmebay! They only tag on a charge of about US$0.13 on every smelly odd slipper sold by some obsessed internet geek. Eventually consumers will realise that the costs of accessing ebay far outweigh the potential benefits, and fraud and misleading are rife. SELL. Good Luck, ~~~~Shane Halloran.
(By the way, its P/E is twice Google's, and that's high!)
Although this Christmas was a letdown for the major retailers, online retailers experienced one of the best sales periods ever. Consumers are definitely worried about the possibility of a recession and looked for ways to spend less money for their holiday shopping. I believe that the lack of consumer confidence actually helped online retailers like amazon, overstock, and ebay. Many of these customers are new and will continue to use online shopping as their main channel for purchasing. This should lead to increased revenues in both the short and long term.
Ebay is benefiting from Wal Mart deep discounting. As Wal Mart takes loses on LCD, laptops, GPS, and DVD movies they are selling below their cost, Ebay profits as these items end up listed for auction.
Nobody has the buying power of Wal Mart, so when they sell stuff below their cost, that is as cheap as anyone can get that item.
At previous post I set technical support for GOOG at $625. Google share prices rebounded this week to $660. Also the highest target price upgrade ($900) done by Credit Suisse helped shares to lift.
Another big tech name in my long term portfolio Ebay is setting up for rebound. From last Q3 release shares went all the way down from $42 to $31 today. Significant 25% drop in only 35 days. The results were better than expected but one time Skype write down triggered all this bad. I am looking at MACD bullish crossover. But before I'd do enter position I am watching closely at broad market indice...
I told you so..
- The price of this stock will tank to about 10 before it goes up again. And that would be as soon as they fire the goon that's running the company. Don'
