The Story (Speculation on my behalf)
One could assume that there is a story behind this as I have seen this on eBay in other countries recently and my assumption is that it’s an effort to drive top line sales and bring the stock price back up due to eBay's challenges in 2014:
Ebay’s stock price was recently at a 52 week low at US$48.06 and has been on a consistent decline since 2014. There are several factors that have influenced this (not in order of impact):
The recent security issue/alerts;
Departure of some key executives;
The infighting with investor Carl Icahn;
Alibaba IPO around the corner with Alibaba posing a real threat to Ebay;
Amazon consistent strength and expansion (they’ll be here next year!);
(perhaps 4&5 should have Australian retail worried too!)
Google Search algorithm changes resulting in lower rankings for ebay listings;
Shut down of eBay Now - same day service;
Some other undisclosed events (speculation).
Either way, I’m happy to support them this weekend and I’ll be buying up on Sunday !!!
