Airbnb is at 142.5. According to my research Airbnb has the most organic visitors (around 70%) than any of it’s competitors. Airbnb’s tech and business model is very promising. True that prices could fluctuate for some time, but I am thinking of buying and keeping it for next few years. Any thoughts? #personalfinance #investments
Yes. Think about who is selling you the stocks you want to buy. Why are they doing that? Why take your opposite side? What do they know more than you do? Did they come to a different conclusion then you did?
Still I prefer staying in hotels instead of Airbnb.
👎 stayed air bnb, concerned about its hygiene
Good point, I'd write off the company 👎
Buy buy buy 🚀🚀
How much money does it make per share?
Sell but never buy.. it's already way over priced
I think it’s a solid investment, bought a lot myself
Airbnb and hotels both will coexist; I have stayed in Airbnb a lot but we have come to the conclusion that if you stay in Airbnb, we still end up doing cooking and most chores like we do in the house and most Airbnb expect and sometimes just out of courtesy, we end up cleaning the whole house ourselves. Hotels albeit similar or less luxurious atleast make you feel like you are on vacation, we like going to hotel restaurant for breakfast and just getting ready to get out of the hotel and spend time outside. We would Airbnb if we were staying anywhere over 2 weeks because you can’t eat out everyday and kitchen access is comfortable. And if you are in a big group and would like to hang out together, Airbnb is a great option and hotels won’t match that experience. So if you believe that Marriott is a good investment than Airbnb is too. However: Consider this: - Marriott has a market cap of 46B (largest chain) and revenue of 10B in 2020; 20B in 2019 - Airbnb has a market cap of 85B (almost double they made a loss of 1B), revenue was only 2.52B (25% of Marriott’s revenue and made a loss too) Marriott own a lot of real estate too worldwide so assets are diversified There is no logic to why Airbnb even after this dip is double the market cap of Marriott with 80% less revenue. With VRBo and other competitors coming up, the market share will go only reduce. Also, more recently I have found that Airbnb are not necessarily cheaper than hotels. Cleaning and service fee are killer
Airbnb and Marriott are not comparable. Their economics and scalability are completely different.
Mar made 22b in 2017, 20b in 2018 and 2019. 10b in 2020. At best it’s flat revenue, zero growth, at worst it’s a shrinking asset. Oh yeah they been losing money since 2017. Abnb is growing (2.5 3.6 4.8 3.3) and were profitable prior to 2020. Abnb has huge margins and low debt. Abnb is way more valuable than mar. Your points Are that of a fixed slicing time in not capable of looking beyond today
AirBnb is not cheaper than hotels, market will respond accordingly
Just don't.
Why!? Can you please elaborate?
