PayPal (PYPL)
The run that brings the stock today to touch $77.69 recording a 4.17% jump in the 24 hours and a continuous, slight but progressive growth for six months now seems to know no rest.

Intesa Sanpaolo (ISP)
The stock has lost a little more than 20% since its February 2022 peak but has made a remarkable recovery in the past six months, recovering 33% of its value.
Today the stock is trading at 2.22 euros, substantially in line with its value a year ago when it was at 2.27 euros and is beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel as predicted by many analysts who see the company recovering for 2023 that has just begun.
In a recent interview, Algebris CEO Davide Serra himself sees the banking sector recovering for this year due to China’s slow but gradual exit from the Covid problem and continued lock downs, moreover, capital flows tend to return to Europe from overseas and given the lower levers of the financial sector in the old continent compared to America this will bring new life to banking stocks especially for those with strong balance sheets such as precisely Intesa Sanpaolo.
Today the stock is in substantial lateralization and is flexing 0.29% in a normal short-term pullback to €2.22.
However, Intesa’s higher-ups are benefiting from rising revenues and a market opening up to new opportunities, not the least of which is cryptocurrencies, fertile ground for old-fashioned business models.
Nio – Inc ADR (NIO)
Sharp jump in the Chinese share price to $10.63 with an excellent +10.38% in today’s session driven by sales in Europe and a new business plan for the three-year period 2023-2025 deemed congruous by analysts for which they believe, Nio will do better than expected.
The company is targeting Tesla’s Model Y, which due to some corporate difficulties while remaining first in the sales rankings has begun to cede market share especially toward the nascent Polar Star brand with the Model 2 and the very Nio that has always been the real natural competitor of Elon Musk‘s EV house.
Having overcome delivery bottlenecks, the company has reduced production by focusing on quality and this has also rewarded in terms of sales of the spare models producing a leap forward also in the stock market and not only in the company’s coffers.
Enel (ENEL)
During the recent meeting with analysts, CEO Francesco Storace had announced the divestment of Endesa Era in which Plenitude (Eni) has always shown interest.
The market value of the company is almost 700 million euros, a not insignificant slice that increases the thirst for the stock by analysts and investors, having passed the price range between €5.00 and €5.20, the stock is aiming for €6.00, whereas today it stands at €5.51 with +0.46%.
