Although the stock market is still optimistic at present, it will meet in an uneasy atmosphere. In addition to the market's urgent need to know Powell's current attitude, what is more important is whether the Fed has the details of tapering policy.</p><p>Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell made it clear during his recent testimony before Congress that he still sees inflationary pressures as largely temporary and that there is no urgent need to signal an impending policy shift. After all, employment levels are still more than 6 million lower than before the pandemic began, and the latest COVID-19 pandemic adds another layer of uncertainty that can be used to justify inaction.</p><p>But ING strategists talked about the upcoming Jackson Hole Federal Reserve Conference in late August, where Fed officials will begin preparing for tapering quantitative easing and refine it further at the FOMC meeting in September, before formally announcing it in December.</p><p>The economy is growing, although perhaps not as fast as some expected earlier this year. In addition, many enterprises urgently need workers, but millions of people are still unemployed. In recent weeks, vaccination rates have stagnated and the number of infections has risen. Despite this, the Fed is facing tightening pressure, such as tapering QE. But most people still don't expect the Fed to announce any new measures at next week's meeting, but the focus is on whether Powell will put the details of tapering \"on the table\" for discussion.</p><p>Labor market signs suggest the Fed's easing is far from over. Economists and market watchers had hoped that by April, when vaccines were widely available and many economic restrictions began to be lifted, employers would start hiring workers in droves. However, the reality is far less optimistic. According to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, non-farm payroll growth has generally been unstable in recent months.</p><p>On the other hand, the current inflationary environment forces the Federal Reserve to consider reducing some of the loose stimulus policies that have been implemented. Three-month moving average data from the Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank showed that even though wages were 3.2% higher in June than a year earlier, inflation rose even higher. The consumer price index rose 5.4% in June compared to a year earlier, meaning inflation-adjusted earnings fell more than 2%. Even the core personal consumption expenditures (Core PCE) measure favored by the Federal Reserve, which excludes volatility in food and energy prices, rose 3.4% in May from a year earlier.</p><p>In fact, a month ago, the Fed raised its inflation forecast for 2021 to 3% from 2.2% in March, but even that may be overly optimistic. Inflation is likely to keep rising for the rest of the year. However, the Fed may not be in a hurry to intervene. In a speech last August, Powell said the Fed has made so many mistakes in the past that he is willing to let prices exceed the central bank's 2% target for a modest period of time before tightening.</p><p>Minutes from the Fed's most recent meeting, though, showed increased interest in discussing tapering bond purchases. The Fed is currently buying $120 billion worth of bonds every month, but a short-term rate hike may still be years away.</p><p>ING strategists believe that although the Federal Reserve is not expected to change policy at its July meeting, the market may hear more news about tapering bond purchase discussions that started in June. The discussion around the issue is likely to heat up at the Jackson Hole conference in August, as the Fed's current signals still favor earlier policy normalization.

Under Non-GAAP, net profit was US $3 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Earnings per share were $1.38, down 1% year-over-year. Visa's fiscal second-quarter payments increased 11% year-over-year; Cross-border transactions excluding intra-European transactions fell 21% year-on-year; Total cross-border transactions decreased by 11% year-on-year; Total transactions processed were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p>Paypal's revenue in the first quarter was US $6.033 billion, a year-on-year increase of 31%, and its net profit was US $1.097 billion, a year-on-year increase of 1206%; Adjusted earnings per share were $1.22, up 84% year over year. Paypal's total payment amount in the first quarter was US $285.447 billion, a year-on-year increase of 50%; In the first quarter, there were 14.5 million net new active accounts, a year-on-year increase of 21%, and the total active accounts reached 392 million. During the quarter, PayPal processed 4.4 billion transactions, up 34% year over year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/56632e6fb8196468400c967ec8ce5821\" tg-width=\"1154\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Highlights of this quarter</b></p><p>The growing popularity of digital payments is providing a huge boost to leading players such as Vis and aPayPal. Both are on the front lines of the cash war and have hands down beating the market in recent years. But with $17 trillion worth of transactions still conducted using cash and checks, there's still plenty of opportunity for PayPal and Visa to grow for years to come.</p><p><b>Revenue maintains rapid growth, and the scale of the two is close</b></p><p>Visa's fiscal third-quarter results are likely in line with market consensus, as stronger credit card transaction volumes reported by issuers JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America in the June quarter were included in service revenue (about half of total net), but lagged by a quarter. Still, a year-over-year increase in consumer spending, aided by a simple April-May comparison and government stimulus, will help Visa deliver its expected 21% net revenue growth. Limiting the upside could be pandemic restrictions outside the U.S., which pose challenges to cross-border payments, which are expected to grow by nearly 44% in local currency terms. Travel is a key component, with one measure-TSA passenger throughput-down 18% year-over-year but rebounding 50% from the March quarter.</p><p>The consensus for PayPal's second-quarter revenue growth of 19% was in line with expectations, which may not reflect strong U.S. e-commerce spending from April to May, including strong \"buy now, pay later\" services. Such strong momentum may support plans to continue to raise prices in August. Retail e-commerce spending grew 9% in the second quarter, compared to 5.1% in the first quarter and a 13% decline in the second quarter, according to SpendTrend. Increased acceptance of in-store merchants' QR codes, Venmo's new crypto trading service, and PayPal's crypto payments could also bring incremental but small contributions, according to BitPay, not slowed by the Bitcoin sell-off.</p><p><b>Large user scale vs fast growth</b></p><p>PayPal and Visa have similar advantages. As of the first quarter, PayPal rapidly expanded in size, with 392 million customer accounts. That pales in comparison to the 3.378 billion Visa cards outstanding worldwide, but PayPal's customer accounts are growing rapidly, up 21% year-over-year. The digital payments provider's expanding reach has earned partnerships with all credit card brands, including Visa.</p><p>With so many cards in circulation, Visa doesn't seem to have a lot of growth opportunities, but it's still looking for ways to get it done-a sign of how big its addressable market really is. The company continues to bolster its massive network processing power, and that's how it makes money. Visa does not issue cards or assume credit risk, it simply charges fees in the business for processing transactions. Total transactions processed last quarter were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7dfbc3e00fedacc0999294a8d11964f\" tg-width=\"1600\" tg-height=\"971\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Comparison of market capitalization of several payment giants</span></p><p><b>Cryptocurrency Color</b></p><p>As more and more people own and use cryptocurrencies around the world, financial institutions have to keep pace. However, such as the huge volatility of Bitcoin, it will also have a certain impact on their finances.</p><p>Visa announced cooperation with more than 50 cryptocurrency companies, including FTX and Coinbase, to allow users to easily use cryptocurrency for transactions through Visa's payment network. This cooperation means that merchants that do not support cryptocurrencies can also accept customers for transactions through Visa.</p><p>Within the first half of 2021, Visa card payments related to cryptocurrencies exceeded $1 billion. Visa said that this cooperation enables customers to easily convert and use cryptocurrency at more than 70 million merchants around the world, and the merchants do not need to make any changes. The cardholder's cryptocurrency will be instantly converted into a specific legal tender, because all operations are done in the background, so it is no different from usual Visa transactions.</p><p>Compared with Visa, PayPal is undoubtedly closer to cryptocurrency and can be called a \"cryptocurrency concept stock\". PayPal's layout in the encryption field can be traced back to 2013, and it has carried out corresponding cooperation with the three major payment processors in the encryption field. There are two main reasons for PayPal's entry into cryptocurrency. One is to attract users. As an international payment giant, PayPal needs to adapt to the development of the digital economy and provide users with more convenient and efficient services in the digital age; The second is to resist external competition. As a giant, PayPal is naturally unwilling to lag behind and chose the former between competing for users and regulatory uncertainty.</p><p>In March of this year, PayPal further liberalized its encrypted payment function, allowing 300 million users of its platform to pay through cryptocurrency and more than 2,900 merchants, allowing U.S. users to buy and sell cryptocurrency through their own accounts without any additional transaction fees. In May, PayPal announced that it would allow users to transfer cryptocurrency to third-party wallets, moving from internal circulation to external cooperation. In July, PayPal increased the weekly limit on cryptocurrency purchases that can be purchased to $100,000 per week.</p><p><b>Analyst Forecasts</b></p><p>According to Bloomberg consensus estimates, Visa's revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 will be US $5.864 billion, adjusted net profit will be US $2.946 billion, and adjusted EPS will be US $1.35.

Since the beginning of this year, Visa's stock price has risen by nearly 12%, and Paypal has risen by nearly 30%. In contrast, the S&P 500 index has risen by about 16%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00ce5d0c4bc5fa1ccd3393fff99b197d\" tg-width=\"1814\" tg-height=\"667\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Last Quarter Review</b></p><p>Both Visa and Paypal exceeded market expectations last quarter.</p><p>The financial report shows that Visa's revenue in the second fiscal quarter was US $5.729 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Net profit was US $3.026 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Earnings per share were $1.38, flat year-over-year. Under Non-GAAP, net profit was US $3 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Earnings per share were $1.38, down 1% year-over-year. Visa's fiscal second-quarter payments increased 11% year-over-year; Cross-border transactions excluding intra-European transactions fell 21% year-on-year; Total cross-border transactions decreased by 11% year-on-year; Total transactions processed were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p>Paypal's revenue in the first quarter was US $6.033 billion, a year-on-year increase of 31%, and its net profit was US $1.097 billion, a year-on-year increase of 1206%; Adjusted earnings per share were $1.22, up 84% year over year. Paypal's total payment amount in the first quarter was US $285.447 billion, a year-on-year increase of 50%; In the first quarter, there were 14.5 million net new active accounts, a year-on-year increase of 21%, and the total active accounts reached 392 million. During the quarter, PayPal processed 4.4 billion transactions, up 34% year over year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/56632e6fb8196468400c967ec8ce5821\" tg-width=\"1154\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Highlights of this quarter</b></p><p>The growing popularity of digital payments is providing a huge boost to leading players such as Vis and aPayPal. Both are on the front lines of the cash war and have hands down beating the market in recent years. But with $17 trillion worth of transactions still conducted using cash and checks, there's still plenty of opportunity for PayPal and Visa to grow for years to come.</p><p><b>Revenue maintains rapid growth, and the scale of the two is close</b></p><p>Visa's fiscal third-quarter results are likely in line with market consensus, as stronger credit card transaction volumes reported by issuers JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America in the June quarter were included in service revenue (about half of total net), but lagged by a quarter. Still, a year-over-year increase in consumer spending, aided by a simple April-May comparison and government stimulus, will help Visa deliver its expected 21% net revenue growth. Limiting the upside could be pandemic restrictions outside the U.S., which pose challenges to cross-border payments, which are expected to grow by nearly 44% in local currency terms. Travel is a key component, with one measure-TSA passenger throughput-down 18% year-over-year but rebounding 50% from the March quarter.</p><p>The consensus for PayPal's second-quarter revenue growth of 19% was in line with expectations, which may not reflect strong U.S. e-commerce spending from April to May, including strong \"buy now, pay later\" services. Such strong momentum may support plans to continue to raise prices in August. Retail e-commerce spending grew 9% in the second quarter, compared to 5.1% in the first quarter and a 13% decline in the second quarter, according to SpendTrend. Increased acceptance of in-store merchants' QR codes, Venmo's new crypto trading service, and PayPal's crypto payments could also bring incremental but small contributions, according to BitPay, not slowed by the Bitcoin sell-off.</p><p><b>Large user scale vs fast growth</b></p><p>PayPal and Visa have similar advantages. As of the first quarter, PayPal rapidly expanded in size, with 392 million customer accounts. That pales in comparison to the 3.378 billion Visa cards outstanding worldwide, but PayPal's customer accounts are growing rapidly, up 21% year-over-year. The digital payments provider's expanding reach has earned partnerships with all credit card brands, including Visa.</p><p>With so many cards in circulation, Visa doesn't seem to have a lot of growth opportunities, but it's still looking for ways to get it done-a sign of how big its addressable market really is. The company continues to bolster its massive network processing power, and that's how it makes money. Visa does not issue cards or assume credit risk, it simply charges fees in the business for processing transactions. Total transactions processed last quarter were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7dfbc3e00fedacc0999294a8d11964f\" tg-width=\"1600\" tg-height=\"971\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Comparison of market capitalization of several payment giants</span></p><p><b>Cryptocurrency Color</b></p><p>As more and more people own and use cryptocurrencies around the world, financial institutions have to keep pace. However, such as the huge volatility of Bitcoin, it will also have a certain impact on their finances.</p><p>Visa announced cooperation with more than 50 cryptocurrency companies, including FTX and Coinbase, to allow users to easily use cryptocurrency for transactions through Visa's payment network. This cooperation means that merchants that do not support cryptocurrencies can also accept customers for transactions through Visa.</p><p>Within the first half of 2021, Visa card payments related to cryptocurrencies exceeded $1 billion. Visa said that this cooperation enables customers to easily convert and use cryptocurrency at more than 70 million merchants around the world, and the merchants do not need to make any changes. The cardholder's cryptocurrency will be instantly converted into a specific legal tender, because all operations are done in the background, so it is no different from usual Visa transactions.</p><p>Compared with Visa, PayPal is undoubtedly closer to cryptocurrency and can be called a \"cryptocurrency concept stock\". PayPal's layout in the encryption field can be traced back to 2013, and it has carried out corresponding cooperation with the three major payment processors in the encryption field. There are two main reasons for PayPal's entry into cryptocurrency. One is to attract users. As an international payment giant, PayPal needs to adapt to the development of the digital economy and provide users with more convenient and efficient services in the digital age; The second is to resist external competition. As a giant, PayPal is naturally unwilling to lag behind and chose the former between competing for users and regulatory uncertainty.</p><p>In March of this year, PayPal further liberalized its encrypted payment function, allowing 300 million users of its platform to pay through cryptocurrency and more than 2,900 merchants, allowing U.S. users to buy and sell cryptocurrency through their own accounts without any additional transaction fees. In May, PayPal announced that it would allow users to transfer cryptocurrency to third-party wallets, moving from internal circulation to external cooperation. In July, PayPal increased the weekly limit on cryptocurrency purchases that can be purchased to $100,000 per week.</p><p><b>Analyst Forecasts</b></p><p>According to Bloomberg consensus estimates, Visa's revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 will be US $5.864 billion, adjusted net profit will be US $2.946 billion, and adjusted EPS will be US $1.35.

Hole Federal Reserve Conference)上，美联储官员将开始为缩减量化宽松做准备，并在9月份的FOMC会议上进一步细化，然后在12月份正式宣布。\n经济正在增长，尽管可能没有今年早些时候一些人预期的那么快。此外许多企业迫切需要工人，但仍有数百万人失业。最近几周，疫苗接种率停滞不前，感染病例数量上升。尽管如此美联储正面临着收紧压力，如缩减QE。但大部分人还是预计美联储不会在下周会议上宣布任何新举措，但焦点是鲍威尔是否会把缩减细节“摆上桌面”来讨论。\n劳动力市场迹象暗示美联储的宽松远没有结束。经济学家和市场观察人士曾希望，到4月份疫苗广泛普及、许多经济限制开始解除的时候，雇主将开始大批雇佣工人。然而，现实却远没有这么乐观。根据美国劳工统计局(Bureau of Labor Statistics)的最新数据显示非农增速在最近数月总体不是很稳定。\n另外一方面，当下通胀环境又让美联储不得不考虑缩减一些已经实施的宽松刺激政策。亚特兰大联邦储备银行的三个月移动平均数据显示，尽管6月份的工资比去年同期高出3.2%，但通货膨胀率却上升得更高。与去年同期相比，6月份消费者价格指数增长了5.4%，这意味着经通胀调整后的收入下降了2%以上。即便是美联储青睐的剔除食品和能源价格波动的核心个人消费支出(Core PCE)指标，5月份也较上年同期上涨了3.4%。\n事实上，一个月前，美联储将2021年的通胀预期从3月份的2.2%上调至3%，但即便如此也可能过于乐观。在今年余下的时间里，通胀可能会持续上升。不过，美联储也未必会不急于介入。在去年8月的一次讲话中，鲍威尔表示，美联储在过去犯了太多的错误，他愿意在收紧之前，让价格在一段适度的时间内超过央行2%的目标。\n不过，美联储最近一次会议的纪要显示，人们对讨论缩减债券购买规模的兴趣有所增加。美联储目前每月购买价值1200亿美元的债券，但短期加息可能仍需数年时间。\nING策略师认为尽管美联储预计在7月份的会议上不会改变政策，但市场可能会听到更多有关6月份开始的缩减购债讨论的消息。在8月份的杰克逊霍尔(Jackson Hole)会议上，围绕这一问题的讨论可能会升温，因为美联储目前发出的信号仍倾向于更早的政策正常化。其谈到鲍威尔主席可能会暗示，虽然有关缩减量化宽松的讨论已经开始，但在他们需要就他们将采取的行动得出结论之前，还有很多时间。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"161125":0.9,"513500":0.9,"UPRO":0.9,"ESmain":0.9,"PSQ":0.9,"QID":0.9,"OEX":0.9,"SDOW":0.9,"SQQQ":0.9,"DXD":0.9,"DOG":0.9,"SSO":0.9,"SPY":0.9,"NQmain":0.9,"IVV":0.9,"QLD":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"DJX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9,"MNQmain":0.9,"SPXU":0.9,"QQQ":0.9,"TQQQ":0.9,"OEF":0.9,"SH":0.9,"UDOW":0.9,"SDS":0.9,".SPX":0.9,"DDM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2742,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":144176782,"gmtCreate":1626273426146,"gmtModify":1703756902704,"author":{"id":"3580853960191633","authorId":"3580853960191633","name":"Eck","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30fd88b35408f269d82b1d08a7d7683d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3580853960191633","idStr":"3580853960191633"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"G&nbsp;","listText":"G&nbsp;","text":"G","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/144176782","repostId":"1187299291","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2000,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":177737603,"gmtCreate":1627261282702,"gmtModify":1703486135784,"author":{"id":"3580853960191633","authorId":"3580853960191633","name":"Eck","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30fd88b35408f269d82b1d08a7d7683d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3580853960191633","idStr":"3580853960191633"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Upup&nbsp;","listText":"Upup&nbsp;","text":"Upup","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/807a5510e6d8827904a567d716bd4636","width":"1080","height":"2991"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/177737603","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1937,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":177036993,"gmtCreate":1627166196112,"gmtModify":1703484848684,"author":{"id":"3580853960191633","authorId":"3580853960191633","name":"Eck","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30fd88b35408f269d82b1d08a7d7683d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3580853960191633","idStr":"3580853960191633"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Upup","listText":"Upup","text":"Upup","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/177036993","repostId":"2153933385","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":175507207,"gmtCreate":1627039517709,"gmtModify":1703482991215,"author":{"id":"3580853960191633","authorId":"3580853960191633","name":"Eck","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30fd88b35408f269d82b1d08a7d7683d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3580853960191633","idStr":"3580853960191633"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Upup","listText":"Upup","text":"Upup","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/175507207","repostId":"1172076155","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1172076155","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1627035498,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1172076155?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-23

Under Non-GAAP, net profit was US $3 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Earnings per share were $1.38, down 1% year-over-year.

Paypal's total payment amount in the first quarter was US $285.447 billion, a year-on-year increase of 50%; In the first quarter, there were 14.5 million net new active accounts, a year-on-year increase of 21%, and the total active accounts reached 392 million. During the quarter, PayPal processed 4.4 billion transactions, up 34% year over year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/56632e6fb8196468400c967ec8ce5821\" tg-width=\"1154\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Highlights of this quarter</b></p><p>The growing popularity of digital payments is providing a huge boost to leading players such as Vis and aPayPal. Both are on the front lines of the cash war and have hands down beating the market in recent years. But with $17 trillion worth of transactions still conducted using cash and checks, there's still plenty of opportunity for PayPal and Visa to grow for years to come.</p><p><b>Revenue maintains rapid growth, and the scale of the two is close</b></p><p>Visa's fiscal third-quarter results are likely in line with market consensus, as stronger credit card transaction volumes reported by issuers JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America in the June quarter were included in service revenue (about half of total net), but lagged by a quarter. Still, a year-over-year increase in consumer spending, aided by a simple April-May comparison and government stimulus, will help Visa deliver its expected 21% net revenue growth. Limiting the upside could be pandemic restrictions outside the U.S., which pose challenges to cross-border payments, which are expected to grow by nearly 44% in local currency terms. Travel is a key component, with one measure-TSA passenger throughput-down 18% year-over-year but rebounding 50% from the March quarter.</p><p>The consensus for PayPal's second-quarter revenue growth of 19% was in line with expectations, which may not reflect strong U.S. e-commerce spending from April to May, including strong \"buy now, pay later\" services. Such strong momentum may support plans to continue to raise prices in August. Retail e-commerce spending grew 9% in the second quarter, compared to 5.1% in the first quarter and a 13% decline in the second quarter, according to SpendTrend. Increased acceptance of in-store merchants' QR codes, Venmo's new crypto trading service, and PayPal's crypto payments could also bring incremental but small contributions, according to BitPay, not slowed by the Bitcoin sell-off.</p><p><b>Large user scale vs fast growth</b></p><p>PayPal and Visa have similar advantages. As of the first quarter, PayPal rapidly expanded in size, with 392 million customer accounts. That pales in comparison to the 3.378 billion Visa cards outstanding worldwide, but PayPal's customer accounts are growing rapidly, up 21% year-over-year. The digital payments provider's expanding reach has earned partnerships with all credit card brands, including Visa.</p><p>With so many cards in circulation, Visa doesn't seem to have a lot of growth opportunities, but it's still looking for ways to get it done-a sign of how big its addressable market really is. The company continues to bolster its massive network processing power, and that's how it makes money. Visa does not issue cards or assume credit risk, it simply charges fees in the business for processing transactions. Total transactions processed last quarter were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7dfbc3e00fedacc0999294a8d11964f\" tg-width=\"1600\" tg-height=\"971\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Comparison of market capitalization of several payment giants</span></p><p><b>Cryptocurrency Color</b></p><p>As more and more people own and use cryptocurrencies around the world, financial institutions have to keep pace. However, such as the huge volatility of Bitcoin, it will also have a certain impact on their finances.</p><p>Visa announced cooperation with more than 50 cryptocurrency companies, including FTX and Coinbase, to allow users to easily use cryptocurrency for transactions through Visa's payment network. This cooperation means that merchants that do not support cryptocurrencies can also accept customers for transactions through Visa.</p><p>Within the first half of 2021, Visa card payments related to cryptocurrencies exceeded $1 billion. Visa said that this cooperation enables customers to easily convert and use cryptocurrency at more than 70 million merchants around the world, and the merchants do not need to make any changes. The cardholder's cryptocurrency will be instantly converted into a specific legal tender, because all operations are done in the background, so it is no different from usual Visa transactions.</p><p>Compared with Visa, PayPal is undoubtedly closer to cryptocurrency and can be called a \"cryptocurrency concept stock\". PayPal's layout in the encryption field can be traced back to 2013, and it has carried out corresponding cooperation with the three major payment processors in the encryption field. There are two main reasons for PayPal's entry into cryptocurrency. One is to attract users. As an international payment giant, PayPal needs to adapt to the development of the digital economy and provide users with more convenient and efficient services in the digital age; The second is to resist external competition.

Under Non-GAAP, net profit was US $3 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2%; Earnings per share were $1.38, down 1% year-over-year. Visa's fiscal second-quarter payments increased 11% year-over-year; Cross-border transactions excluding intra-European transactions fell 21% year-on-year; Total cross-border transactions decreased by 11% year-on-year; Total transactions processed were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p>Paypal's revenue in the first quarter was US $6.033 billion, a year-on-year increase of 31%, and its net profit was US $1.097 billion, a year-on-year increase of 1206%; Adjusted earnings per share were $1.22, up 84% year over year. Paypal's total payment amount in the first quarter was US $285.447 billion, a year-on-year increase of 50%; In the first quarter, there were 14.5 million net new active accounts, a year-on-year increase of 21%, and the total active accounts reached 392 million. During the quarter, PayPal processed 4.4 billion transactions, up 34% year over year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/56632e6fb8196468400c967ec8ce5821\" tg-width=\"1154\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Highlights of this quarter</b></p><p>The growing popularity of digital payments is providing a huge boost to leading players such as Vis and aPayPal. Both are on the front lines of the cash war and have hands down beating the market in recent years. But with $17 trillion worth of transactions still conducted using cash and checks, there's still plenty of opportunity for PayPal and Visa to grow for years to come.</p><p><b>Revenue maintains rapid growth, and the scale of the two is close</b></p><p>Visa's fiscal third-quarter results are likely in line with market consensus, as stronger credit card transaction volumes reported by issuers JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America in the June quarter were included in service revenue (about half of total net), but lagged by a quarter. Still, a year-over-year increase in consumer spending, aided by a simple April-May comparison and government stimulus, will help Visa deliver its expected 21% net revenue growth. Limiting the upside could be pandemic restrictions outside the U.S., which pose challenges to cross-border payments, which are expected to grow by nearly 44% in local currency terms. Travel is a key component, with one measure-TSA passenger throughput-down 18% year-over-year but rebounding 50% from the March quarter.</p><p>The consensus for PayPal's second-quarter revenue growth of 19% was in line with expectations, which may not reflect strong U.S. e-commerce spending from April to May, including strong \"buy now, pay later\" services. Such strong momentum may support plans to continue to raise prices in August. Retail e-commerce spending grew 9% in the second quarter, compared to 5.1% in the first quarter and a 13% decline in the second quarter, according to SpendTrend. Increased acceptance of in-store merchants' QR codes, Venmo's new crypto trading service, and PayPal's crypto payments could also bring incremental but small contributions, according to BitPay, not slowed by the Bitcoin sell-off.</p><p><b>Large user scale vs fast growth</b></p><p>PayPal and Visa have similar advantages. As of the first quarter, PayPal rapidly expanded in size, with 392 million customer accounts. That pales in comparison to the 3.378 billion Visa cards outstanding worldwide, but PayPal's customer accounts are growing rapidly, up 21% year-over-year. The digital payments provider's expanding reach has earned partnerships with all credit card brands, including Visa.</p><p>With so many cards in circulation, Visa doesn't seem to have a lot of growth opportunities, but it's still looking for ways to get it done-a sign of how big its addressable market really is. The company continues to bolster its massive network processing power, and that's how it makes money. Visa does not issue cards or assume credit risk, it simply charges fees in the business for processing transactions. Total transactions processed last quarter were 37.6 billion, up 8% year-on-year.</p><p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7dfbc3e00fedacc0999294a8d11964f\" tg-width=\"1600\" tg-height=\"971\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Comparison of market capitalization of several payment giants</span></p><p><b>Cryptocurrency Color</b></p><p>As more and more people own and use cryptocurrencies around the world, financial institutions have to keep pace. However, such as the huge volatility of Bitcoin, it will also have a certain impact on their finances.</p><p>Visa announced cooperation with more than 50 cryptocurrency companies, including FTX and Coinbase, to allow users to easily use cryptocurrency for transactions through Visa's payment network. This cooperation means that merchants that do not support cryptocurrencies can also accept customers for transactions through Visa.</p><p>Within the first half of 2021, Visa card payments related to cryptocurrencies exceeded $1 billion. Visa said that this cooperation enables customers to easily convert and use cryptocurrency at more than 70 million merchants around the world, and the merchants do not need to make any changes. The cardholder's cryptocurrency will be instantly converted into a specific legal tender, because all operations are done in the background, so it is no different from usual Visa transactions.</p><p>Compared with Visa, PayPal is undoubtedly closer to cryptocurrency and can be called a \"cryptocurrency concept stock\". PayPal's layout in the encryption field can be traced back to 2013, and it has carried out corresponding cooperation with the three major payment processors in the encryption field.

What key points should we focus on?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2153809933","media":"智通财经网","summary":"美联储于7月27日和28日召开货币政策会议，虽然股市目前情绪还较乐观，它将在一种不安的气氛中开会。","content":"<p>The Federal Reserve will hold its monetary policy meeting on July 27th and 28th. Although the stock market is still optimistic at present, it will meet in an uneasy atmosphere. In addition to the market's urgent need to know Powell's current attitude, what is more important is whether the Fed has the details of tapering policy.</p><p>Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell made it clear during his recent testimony before Congress that he still sees inflationary pressures as largely temporary and that there is no urgent need to signal an impending policy shift. After all, employment levels are still more than 6 million lower than before the pandemic began, and the latest COVID-19 pandemic adds another layer of uncertainty that can be used to justify inaction.</p><p>But ING strategists talked about the upcoming Jackson Hole Federal Reserve Conference in late August, where Fed officials will begin preparing for tapering quantitative easing and refine it further at the FOMC meeting in September, before formally announcing it in December.</p><p>The economy is growing, although perhaps not as fast as some expected earlier this year. In addition, many enterprises urgently need workers, but millions of people are still unemployed. In recent weeks, vaccination rates have stagnated and the number of infections has risen. Despite this, the Fed is facing tightening pressure, such as tapering QE. But most people still don't expect the Fed to announce any new measures at next week's meeting, but the focus is on whether Powell will put the details of tapering \"on the table\" for discussion.</p><p>Labor market signs suggest the Fed's easing is far from over. Economists and market watchers had hoped that by April, when vaccines were widely available and many economic restrictions began to be lifted, employers would start hiring workers in droves. However, the reality is far less optimistic. According to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, non-farm payroll growth has generally been unstable in recent months.</p><p>On the other hand, the current inflationary environment forces the Federal Reserve to consider reducing some of the loose stimulus policies that have been implemented.

Although the stock market is still optimistic at present, it will meet in an uneasy atmosphere. In addition to the market's urgent need to know Powell's current attitude, what is more important is whether the Fed has the details of tapering policy.</p><p>Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell made it clear during his recent testimony before Congress that he still sees inflationary pressures as largely temporary and that there is no urgent need to signal an impending policy shift. After all, employment levels are still more than 6 million lower than before the pandemic began, and the latest COVID-19 pandemic adds another layer of uncertainty that can be used to justify inaction.</p><p>But ING strategists talked about the upcoming Jackson Hole Federal Reserve Conference in late August, where Fed officials will begin preparing for tapering quantitative easing and refine it further at the FOMC meeting in September, before formally announcing it in December.</p><p>The economy is growing, although perhaps not as fast as some expected earlier this year. In addition, many enterprises urgently need workers, but millions of people are still unemployed. In recent weeks, vaccination rates have stagnated and the number of infections has risen. Despite this, the Fed is facing tightening pressure, such as tapering QE. But most people still don't expect the Fed to announce any new measures at next week's meeting, but the focus is on whether Powell will put the details of tapering \"on the table\" for discussion.</p><p>Labor market signs suggest the Fed's easing is far from over. Economists and market watchers had hoped that by April, when vaccines were widely available and many economic restrictions began to be lifted, employers would start hiring workers in droves. However, the reality is far less optimistic. According to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, non-farm payroll growth has generally been unstable in recent months.</p><p>On the other hand, the current inflationary environment forces the Federal Reserve to consider reducing some of the loose stimulus policies that have been implemented. Three-month moving average data from the Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank showed that even though wages were 3.2% higher in June than a year earlier, inflation rose even higher. The consumer price index rose 5.4% in June compared to a year earlier, meaning inflation-adjusted earnings fell more than 2%. Even the core personal consumption expenditures (Core PCE) measure favored by the Federal Reserve, which excludes volatility in food and energy prices, rose 3.4% in May from a year earlier.</p><p>In fact, a month ago, the Fed raised its inflation forecast for 2021 to 3% from 2.2% in March, but even that may be overly optimistic. Inflation is likely to keep rising for the rest of the year. However, the Fed may not be in a hurry to intervene.
