PayPal Holdings The first phenomenal growth stock that's begging to be bought during the Nasdaq bear market decline is fintech stock PayPal Holdings (NASDAQ: PYPL). Despite higher inflation and weaker domestic/global growth prospects weighing on consumer spending, the total payment volume traversing PayPal's digital platforms keeps climbing by a double-digit percentage on a constant-currency basis. Although regulatory overhangs and China's zero-COVID-19 strategy have acted as cement weights on shares of Baidu in recent quarters, the company's clear-cut competitive advantages make it a no-brainer buy at depressed levels.
