What happened: Fintech firms face tariff-driven uncertainty
PayPal, Block and Affirm are preparing to report their latest earnings amid growing investor concerns over the potential impact of President Trump’s tariffs on consumer spending. Markets have been volatile at the start of the year, largely due to fears that sweeping tariffs could lead to higher import costs, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending. The end of de minimis trade exemptions for Chinese imports, effective 2 May, poses a significant threat to low-cost cross-border e-commerce. Wells Fargo analysts have noted that PayPal is particularly exposed to tariff-related volatility, given that 90% of its revenue comes from consumer-driven transactions.
PayPal is scheduled to report earnings on Tuesday, with Block following on Thursday and Affirm set to report the following Thursday. Their stock prices have been hit harder this year than the broader market, with PayPal down 23%, Block down 32% and Affirm down 19%, compared to the tech-heavy Nasdaq’s 10% decline. The stocks rebounded last week as Wall Street showed some optimism that the Trump administration would make progress on trade agreements. Barclays analysts have warned that significantly higher tariffs will weigh heavily on e-commerce sales, particularly for goods previously entering the US duty-free.
