June 5, 2019

This article was written by the I Know First Research Team.

EBAY Stock Forecast: Why eBay Remains Relevant

April 25, 2019

The article was written by Motek Moyen Research Seeking Alpha’s #1 Writer on Long Ideas and #2 in Technology – Senior Analyst at I Know First.

Summary:

I am again endorsing eBay as a buy for investors who like the growing $3.45 trillion retail e-commerce business. This company’s stock is also relatively undervalued.

StubHub, Classifieds, and Payments business segments are also growing.
