Affirm Rallies 5% as Midweek Selloff Unwinds, Klarna and PayPal Tick Up
Affirm Holdings stock rose 5% to $71.11 midday Friday, recovering some of the losses it sustained earlier in the week during a midweek selloff. Rival buy-now-pay-later companies Klarna and PayPal also ticked upward during the session.
Why it matters — A midweek decline followed by a 5% rebound signals that investor appetite for Affirm's shares is returning as the broader selloff unwinds.
