ADVICE rides record profit, iPhone 18 demand, and broker upgrades

  • Record Q2 profit and raised dividend ADVICE reported a record Q2 fiscal 2026 net profit of 137 million baht, up 83% year on year, beating estimates. Revenue hit a new high of 4.5 billion baht, and the company announced a first-half dividend of 0.23 baht per share. This strong result supports the stock price by showing the company is growing and returning cash to shareholders.

    This is a major new earnings event that directly boosts investor confidence and the stock's value.

  • iPhone 18 Pro Max bookings fully subscribed ADVICE said bookings for the iPhone 18 Pro Max filled their allocated quota and sold out quickly. The company expects Q3 2026 revenue to improve from Q2, driven by new smartphone models, and maintains a 15% revenue growth target for 2026. This drives the stock up because it signals strong consumer demand and higher sales ahead.

    This is a new, company-specific demand catalyst that directly supports future revenue and earnings.

  • Broker upgrades and top-pick status Krungsri Securities recommends buying ADVICE with an 8.40 baht target, forecasting 2026 profit up 65%. Daiwa Securities names ADVICE among its five top picks for October. Kasikorn Securities expects Q3 profit to surge 84% year on year and sets a target of 8.82 baht. These endorsements attract investors and push the price up.

    New analyst recommendations and targets provide fresh reasons for investors to buy the stock.

  • Strong Q3 sales but margin and growth may slow Krungsri notes Q3-to-date sales for IT retailers like ADVICE grew 15-20% year on year, helped by pull-forward purchases before the iPhone 18 launch. However, it warns post-launch sales growth may slow and the boost from low-cost inventory will fade, potentially slowing earnings growth in late 2026 and 2027. This creates some caution for the stock.

    This provides a balanced view, highlighting both current demand strength and future headwinds that could affect the stock.

eBay Inc (EBAY)

Q3 2026
▲3▼1

eBay's UK fee-free bet and GameStop stake drove a 52% surge

  • UK fee-free experiment sparks 52% stock surge eBay's UK experiment to drop selling fees drove a 52% stock surge, showing investors that fee cuts can boost buyer and seller activity and revive growth.

    This was the single biggest positive price driver in the quarter.

  • Q2 revenue up 15%, net income up 51% eBay reported Q2 revenue of $3.13B, up 15%, and net income up 51%, giving investors concrete evidence that the business was accelerating, not just cutting costs.

    Strong financial results directly supported the stock's rise.

  • GameStop's $4.9B stake and UK approval of Depop GameStop's roughly $4.9B, 43.4-million-share stake signaled outside confidence, while UK regulators cleared the $1.2B Depop acquisition, removing a key deal risk.

    Both events added confidence and removed uncertainty for investors.

  • GameStop bid uncertainty, Meta threat, downgrade, Icahn push GameStop's $125-per-share hostile bid created board uncertainty and could be withdrawn, Meta's Seller app threatens high-margin sellers, Wells Fargo downgraded eBay over Depop's 2027 earnings drag, and Carl Icahn is pushing for a PayPal spin-off and board seats.

    These risks capped gains and could erase the takeover premium.

GameStop's eBay stake grows, but takeover bid fades

  • GameStop may drop its $56B eBay bid GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is considering withdrawing his $56 billion buyout offer for eBay, possibly seeking a partnership or joint venture instead. Without a takeover bid, eBay loses the buyout premium that had lifted its stock, so the shares could fall back toward where they traded before the offer.

    This is the key new event that removes the takeover premium supporting eBay's price.

  • eBay buys Etsy's Depop, expanding its marketplace eBay acquired Depop from Etsy, adding a popular secondhand fashion marketplace to its portfolio. This grows eBay's reach in resale and could boost long-term revenue and user growth, a positive for the stock even though the price paid wasn't disclosed.

    This is a new strategic acquisition that directly affects eBay's business and growth outlook.

  • GameStop's $4.9B eBay stake signals confidence GameStop disclosed it owns about 43.4 million eBay shares worth roughly $4.9 billion, making it eBay's second-largest shareholder. That large, committed stake shows strong outside belief in eBay's value and could support the stock by reducing the number of shares available to trade.

    This new disclosure highlights a major shareholder's confidence and potential support for eBay's stock.

  • Cohen buys more GameStop stock, not eBay Ryan Cohen spent $26.4 million buying more GameStop shares, raising his personal stake past 40 million shares. This suggests his focus is shifting back to GameStop rather than pursuing eBay, making it less likely he'll raise his eBay offer and weakening the takeover premium in eBay's stock.

    This new insider buying shows Cohen's priorities may be moving away from an eBay deal.

eBay's UK fee-free push and Depop win offset by GameStop, Meta threats

  • UK fee-free experiment drives 52% stock surge eBay's UK test of scrapping selling fees for casual sellers sent the stock up 52%, showing its consumer-to-consumer turnaround is working and boosting investor confidence.

    This is the biggest positive force behind eBay's price move in the period.

  • Q2 beat and UK clears Depop deal Q2 revenue rose 15% to $3.13B and net income jumped 51%, beating estimates, while UK regulators cleared the $1.2B Depop acquisition, supporting growth plans.

    Strong earnings and a cleared acquisition are key positive drivers for the stock.

  • GameStop stake and hostile bid create uncertainty GameStop built a roughly 10% stake and made a $125-per-share hostile bid, creating board uncertainty, though Wedbush doubts it succeeds. This weighs on the stock.

    This is a major new risk factor that pressured eBay's price during the period.

  • Meta Seller app and Icahn campaign add pressure Meta's new Seller app threatens eBay's high-margin professional sellers, Wells Fargo downgraded the stock on Depop's 2027 earnings drag, and Carl Icahn is pushing for a PayPal spin-off and board seats.

    These competitive and activist pressures are new negative forces on eBay's outlook.

eBay's strong Q2 offset by Meta competition and activist pressure

  • Meta's Seller App Threatens eBay's Core Sellers Meta launched a Seller app for Facebook Marketplace, directly targeting eBay's professional sellers with lower fees and AI tools. This threatens eBay's high-margin seller base, pushing the stock down as investors worry about losing market share.

    This new competitive threat directly pressures eBay's core business and was a key driver of the stock's decline this period.

  • Wells Fargo Downgrade on Depop Costs Wells Fargo downgraded eBay to underweight, citing the Depop acquisition will weaken 2027 earnings and require higher marketing spend. This adds to concerns that defending against rivals like Vinted will hurt profits, weighing on the stock.

    The downgrade reflects real concerns about profitability and was a direct catalyst for the stock's drop.

  • Strong Q2 Results and Upbeat Q3 Guidance eBay reported 15% revenue growth to $3.13 billion and 51% higher net income, beating estimates. Q3 revenue guidance also topped expectations, driven by demand for luxury, collectibles, and refurbished goods. This shows the core business is healthy and growing.

    The strong financial performance and guidance are key positives that support the stock's value.

  • Carl Icahn's Activist Campaign Carl Icahn is demanding a PayPal spin-off and board seats, alleging conflicts of interest. This creates uncertainty about eBay's strategy and leadership, which could distract management and unsettle investors.

    Activist pressure introduces strategic uncertainty that can negatively impact investor sentiment.

GameStop's eBay stake grows, but UK clears Depop and C2C strategy shines

  • GameStop's creeping stake and hostile bid GameStop now owns nearly 10% of eBay and is pushing a $125-per-share hostile bid. This creates uncertainty for eBay's board and shareholders, as a proxy fight or tender offer could disrupt management and distract from operations.

    This is the main source of uncertainty and potential downside for eBay's stock.

  • UK C2C experiment drives 52% stock surge eBay's UK experiment eliminating selling fees for casual sellers led to double-digit growth in consumer-to-consumer sales. This validates eBay's turnaround strategy and shows it can grow profitably, boosting investor confidence.

    This is a major positive catalyst that directly supports eBay's standalone growth story.

  • UK regulator clears $1.2B Depop acquisition The UK competition watchdog approved eBay's purchase of fashion resale platform Depop. This removes a regulatory hurdle and supports eBay's strategy to attract younger shoppers and strengthen its resale fashion business.

    This is a new positive development that advances eBay's growth strategy.

  • Analyst skeptical on GameStop bid, sees eBay reasonably valued Wedbush doubts GameStop's bid will succeed due to a financing gap, noting eBay trades below the offer price. The analyst views eBay as reasonably valued on its own but warns of downside if GameStop walks away.

    This provides a balanced view on the takeover situation and eBay's standalone value.
