Which is better to buy: PayPal or Visa?
We do not advise what to buy. By the numbers: Visa rose more over the year (+25.0%); Visa is closer to its 52-week high; Visa has the higher operating margin; Visa is growing revenue faster; PayPal has the lower P/E. How to weigh such signs is covered in «How to analyse a stock».
Can I buy both?
Yes. Many hold several companies in one industry to avoid depending on one. A broad index fund often already holds the largest US companies.
When do they report?
