Guggenheim said in its upgrade of eBay that it sees a favorable risk/reward and says the time to buy the stock is now.
"Shares are down 19% YTD and trade at ~8.5x our 2021E EPS; at these levels, and in this environment, we believe the risk/reward is favorable and see both defensive traits and positive catalysts over the next 12 months. Defensive traits include 1) a strong balance sheet, 2) robust cash flow, and 3) ~no inventory risk. Potential catalysts are 1) small business expansion, 2) monetization of Classifieds, 3) a new CEO, and 4) operational enhancements (payments, promoted listings, cost controls).
