<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/warren-buffett">Billionaire Warren Buffett</a> is now worth more than the combined value of three well-known companies.
What Happened: Many billionaires added to their wealth in 2024. However, only four of the ten richest people in the world have a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45419116/musk-bezos-gain-billions-after-us-china-trade-deal-but-the-wealthiest-10-are-still-down-67b-in-2025">positive net wealth gain</a> in 2025.
Buffett, who has a history of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/01/42832123/warren-buffett-beats-sp-500-in-2024-how-oracle-of-omahas-returns-compare-over-past-20-years">producing market-beating returns</a>, added $18.6 billion to his wealth in 2025. He currently ranks sixth richest in the world, worth $161 billion, as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/?sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>.
The Oracle of Omaha's wealth gain trails only Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who is up $18.9 billion. Bill Gates (+$16.2 billion) and Steve Ballmer (+$12.4 billion) are also among the top 10 wealthiest with a positive gain this year.
With a wealth of $161 billion, Buffett is now worth more than many great American companies. In fact, with the year-to-date gains, Buffett is now worth more than the following three companies combined:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>PayPal Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>): $70 billion</li>
<li>General Motors Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>): $48 billion</li>
<li>Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>): $43 billion</li>
</ul>
The three companies together are worth $161 billion, the same amount of Buffett's net worth.
You may not be a billionaire like Warren Buffett, but you can uncover hidden gems in the stock market using our proprietary data and pattern recognition — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41187322/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet">check out five stocks flying under the radar that deserve your attention.</a>
Why It's Important: Buffett&#8217;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) conglomerate is currently ranked ninth among valuations for public companies. It has a market capitalization of $1.1 trillion and its stock gained 13.4% year-to-date in 2025. The company outpaced a 1.5% gain for the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust, which tracks the S&amp;P 500.
PayPal stock is down 15.9% year-to-date and General Motors shares are down 2.0% year-to-date. Ford, on the other hand, is positive with a 12.1% year-to-date gain.
Buffett added $17.9 billion to his wealth in 2024 to end the year as the 10th richest person worth $142 billion.
With Berkshire Hathaway's current trajectory, Buffett could continue to add to his wealth and climb the rankings.
The Berkshire Hathaway CEO recently announced he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45184410/warren-buffett-to-step-down-as-berkshire-hathaway-ceo-by-end-of-year-asks-board-to-confirm-greg-abel-as-successor">will be stepping down</a> , though he will remain chairman of the company. With this transition — and his longstanding pledge to give away the bulk of his fortune — Buffett may accelerate his philanthropic efforts. While such moves could impact his standing on the world's billionaire list, it's a ranking the legendary investor has long downplayed in importance.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

This Is What Whales Are Betting On PayPal Holdings

PayPal Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NYSE">PYPL</a>) short percent of float has risen 18.73% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 32.83 million shares sold short, which is 3.36% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.26 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for PayPal Holdings has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing PayPal Holdings's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, PayPal Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.58%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

What's Driving the Market Sentiment Around PayPal Holdings?

PayPal Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>)&nbsp;shares are trading lower on Wednesday. Several analysts lowered the price forecast/rating on the stock after first-quarter <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/pypl/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">results reported on Tuesday</a>.
Quarterly&nbsp;revenue growth&nbsp;was 1% year-over-year to $7.79 billion, missing the&nbsp;analyst consensus estimate&nbsp;of&nbsp;$7.84 billion. Adjusted EPS was $1.33, beating&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45067312/paypal-earnings-beat-but-slower-spending-and-checkout-use-weigh-on-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate&nbsp;of $1.16</a>.
PayPal expects a second-quarter adjusted EPS of $1.29-$1.31, compared to $1.19 for the previous year's period, and the&nbsp;analyst consensus estimate&nbsp;is $1.21.
PayPal reiterated full-year 2025 adjusted EPS of $4.95-$5.10, compared to $4.65 Y/Y. Currently, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">analysts estimate an EPS of $5.01</a>.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Daniel R. Perlin slashed the price forecast for PYPL from $104 to $88, while keeping an Outperform rating.
The analyst writes that despite ongoing complexities in the company&#8217;s transition, he sees near-term indicators supporting continued success.
The positive factors include Branded checkout (online) Total Payment Volume (TPV) maintaining a steady 6% year-over-year growth (excluding FX and Leap Day), with over 45% of U.S. transactions utilizing the latest technology.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45089879/paypal-says-buy-now-pay-later-users-spend-33-more-make-17-more-transactions-pushes-for-global-rollout" rel="noreferrer noopener">PayPal Says &#8216;Buy Now, Pay Later&#8217; Users Spend 33% More, Make 17% More Transactions—Pushes For Global Rollout</a>
Also, transaction margin dollars increased by 7% year-over-year and significant continued growth in Venmo monetization through Pay with Venmo and the debit card are tailwinds, adds the analyst.
Perlin considers the unchanged FY25 guidance prudent given the current uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, providing flexibility for the second half of the year.
The analyst revised FY25 revenue and adjusted EPS estimates to $32.12 billion and $5.10 (from $32.19 billion and $5.00, respectively), and FY26 estimates to $33.18 billion and $5.85 (from $33.70 billion and $5.80, respectively).
Canaccord Genuity analyst Joseph Vafi maintained a &#8220;Buy&#8221; rating with a price target of $96.00.
The analyst writes that the first quarter marked another quarter of steady progress in PayPal&#8217;s business realignment under its new CEO, Alex Chriss, who has been in the role for just over a year.
Vafi says that the quarter was notable for transaction-margin dollar growth contributions from both branded and, importantly, now unbranded payment volume.
While some on Wall Street expressed disappointment regarding revenue headwinds stemming from the non-renewal of certain low or negative-margin unbranded volume contracts in the last quarter, the analyst views this as a sound strategic move.
Vafi sees transaction-margin dollar growth as the key metric to monitor, at least in the near term.
Goldman Sachs analyst Will Nance writes that earnings positives include de-risked numbers, faster-than-expected branded checkout upgrades (45% of U.S. branded on newest integration), strong growth in Pay with Venmo TPV (50%+), debit card TPV (60%+), and BNPL (20%+), and improved Braintree yields.
Nance cited range-bound to slightly weaker branded checkout volumes and outperformance driven by credit products as a negative factor.
Overall, the analyst is cautious on the longer-term trends due to favorable margin dynamics (low-single-digit opex growth) and significant capital return/FCF.
JP Morgan analyst Tien-Tsin Huang slashed the price forecast from $90 to $75, maintaining an Overweight rating.
The analyst says that the results offered points for both positive and negative perspectives, but they feel incrementally better about the stock&#8217;s setup.
Positives include stable spending (excluding Leap Year), positive commentary on business diversification (US-China cross-border, retail/discretionary split), and a reiterated guide, which provides a second-half cushion, according to the analyst.
Huang says that negatives include slightly soft branded growth (+4% vs. JPMe +5%) and questions about the beat&#8217;s quality due to strong credit growth (easier comparison).
Strong product ramp-up (Venmo revenue +20%, 45% of U.S. on modern checkout) supports improving growth and execution in a stable macro, aligning with management&#8217;s investor day commitments, the analyst added.
Price Action: PYPL shares are down 1.6% at $65.20 at last check Wednesday.

Fintech giant PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>) said Tuesday it was committed to boosting cryptocurrency adoption, with a particular emphasis on its PayPal USD (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">PYUSD</a>) stablecoin.
What Happened:&nbsp;During the company&#8217;s first-quarter&nbsp;earnings call, CEO Alex Chriss said PayPal was &#8220;making strides&#8221; and &#8220;moving quickly&#8221; to bring the benefits of cryptocurrency and stablecoins to its user base.
&#8220;Last week, we introduced the ability to earn rewards for holding PYUSD. This will increase the adoption and use of digital currencies for everyday commerce, from sending money internationally to making purchases and more,&#8221; Chriss stated.
Regarding PYUSD, the top executive said PayPal has been strengthening its ties with cryptocurrency industry giants such as Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) to facilitate easier access and usage.
Moreover, the company&#8217;s strategic move to add PYUSD to the Solana blockchain is seen as an attempt to expand its crypto-related services. This move is in line with the rising dominance of stablecoins in the global financial system, as highlighted by tech investor Chamath Palihapitiya. He noted that the weekly transaction volumes of stablecoins have surpassed that of Visa Inc.

Why It Matters: PayPal has strategically invested in digital assets, particularly stablecoins, to capitalize on their growing importance in the global financial system.
Last year, it launched <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/05/39068774/paypal-launches-pyusd-stablecoin-on-solana">PYUSD</a>, a dollar-backed cryptocurrency, on the Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) blockchain. As of this writing, the stablecoin had a market capitalization of $880 million, making it the sixth-largest overall.
Additionally, PayPal allows customers to buy and sell cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), as well as use them for online purchases.
The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45067312/paypal-earnings-beat-but-slower-spending-and-checkout-use-weigh-on-results">reported its first-quarter financials</a> on Tuesday, beating earnings predictions but falling short of revenue expectations.
Price Action: Shares of PayPal dipped 0.24% in after-hours trading after closing up 2.14% at $66.32 during Tuesday's regular trading session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. Year-to-date, the stock has lost over 22% of its value.
PayPal recorded a moderate reading on some of its key indicators, including momentum, growth, and quality.

PayPal CEO Says 'Moving Quickly' To Bring Crypto, Stablecoin Benefits To Users — Fintech Giant Partners With Coinbase To Boost Solana-based PYUSD

PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>) is seeing strong momentum with its "Buy Now, Pay Later" services, with significantly higher user engagement and larger transaction sizes, as it expands the offering globally.
What Happened: During its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45067312/paypal-earnings-beat-but-slower-spending-and-checkout-use-weigh-on-results">first quarter earnings</a> on Tuesday, PayPal highlighted key developments in its Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) service, a short-term financing option that lets consumers defer payments on purchases, starting with a 0% APR, and no late fees.
BNPL users spend 33% more per transaction than PayPal's overall average of $69.53, the company said. They also complete 17% more transactions than the average of 59.4 per active account over the past 12 months.

Although PayPal launched its BNPL service in 2020, the company credits recent gains to its improved pay sheet that clearly showcases its full range of payment options. The service has also received greater visibility through marketing campaigns, including one featuring actor Will Ferrell.
Despite inherent credit risks tied to BNPL offerings, PayPal CFO Jamie Miller has said that charge-off rates remain stable and are improving. &#8220;In particular with respect to the consumer portfolios, we've actually seen delinquencies over the last 30 days improve,&#8221; Miller said on the earnings call.
The company&#8217;s CEO, Alex Chriss, considers BNPL a key growth lever going forward, with plans for an international rollout this year.
&#8220;We will continue to lean into BNPL throughout this year with targeted consumer awareness campaigns in the U.K. and Germany and continued investment in other priority global markets including Australia, France, Italy, and Spain,&#8221; Chriss said on the call.
Why It Matters: The BNPL market has surged in recent years, with the market <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/01/36697045/the-rise-of-buy-now-pay-later-in-2024">expected to touch</a> $1 trillion by 2027, led by PayPal, and its peers such as Affirm Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AFRM#NASDAQ">AFRM</a>), Klarna, and AfterPay, which is now owned by Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>).
While analysts have cautioned against <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/25/02/43888952/americans-owe-a-record-1-21-trillion-in-credit-card-debt-expert-warns-theres-no-end-in-sight">rising BNPL debt</a> and overindulgence by consumers in the past, the company&#8217;s steady charge-off rates and low delinquencies have dismissed these concerns.
Price Action: PayPal stock was up 2.14% on Tuesday, but is down 0.26% after-hours, following the company&#8217;s first quarter earnings.

Wall Street rose modestly by midday Tuesday, as investors weighed the latest developments in trade negotiations and awaited a wave of key economic data and corporate earnings set for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45072497/us-trade-deficit-explodes-to-record-162-billion-in-march-as-import-frenzy-precedes-trumps-tariff-barrage">release later this week.</a>

Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent added that the administration is pursuing bilateral trade agreements with 17 major partners, excluding China.
The S&amp;P 500 climbed 0.4%, putting it on track for a sixth consecutive gain—its longest winning streak since November 2024.
In the bond market, U.S. Treasuries extended their rally, with yields falling for a sixth straight session. The yield on the 10-year benchmark dropped to 4.17%, marking a two-week low.
Gold prices slipped 0.6% to $3,325 per ounce, while WTI crude oil futures fell 2.4% to $60 per barrel, the lowest level in two weeks. Oil prices are under pressure from escalating global trade tensions and weaker U.S. economic data, and crude is now on track for a 15% decline in April—its steepest monthly drop since 2021.
Bitcoin traded little changed, around $95,000.
