What's The Deal With PayPal's IPO?
from the good-or-bad? dept
I'm sure there will be a number of similar articles coming out in the near future. All eyes in the technology investing world are following the planned IPO of PayPal. If it takes off it could open up the IPO gates again, and there are a lot of people hoping that's what will happen. However, is it really a good investment? The numbers don't look good.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
