Affirm Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:AFRM) is a key player in the 'buy now, pay later' (BNPL) sector, offering consumers flexible payment options. The company competes with other BNPL providers like Afterpay and Klarna. On November 25, 2024, Robert O'Hare, Affirm's CFO, sold 79,039 shares of Class A Common Stock at $70.01 each, as reported on Form 4.
BofA Securities has shown confidence in Affirm by raising its price target to $74 and maintaining a Buy rating. This suggests that Affirm is well-positioned to capture more market share from its BNPL competitors. The stock's recent performance supports this view, with a current price of $69.35, up 4.21% or $2.80.
Affirm's stock has been on an upward trend for four weeks, partly due to the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts and strategic partnerships with major companies. On Monday, the stock hit $62, its highest since February 2022, sparking discussions about potentially reaching $100. This optimism is reflected in the stock's recent high of $70.20.
At the FT Partners FinTech Conference on November 20, 2024, Affirm's Chief Revenue Officer, Wayne Pommen, discussed the company's strategies and performance. This event likely contributed to the positive sentiment around the stock, which has seen a trading volume of 8,142,052 shares today.
Affirm's market capitalization stands at approximately $21.78 billion, indicating its significant presence in the BNPL market. The stock's 52-week range shows a low of $22.25 and a high of $70.20, highlighting its recent strong performance and investor confidence in its future growth.
