Is eBay Outperforming the Nasdaq?

Founded in 1995 and headquartered in San Jose, California, eBay Inc. (EBAY) has grown into one of the world’s largest online marketplaces. The company connects millions of buyers and sellers across more than 190 markets, offering everything from collectibles and electronics to fashion and luxury goods.

Unlike traditional retailers, eBay operates an asset-light model, providing tools for listings, payments, search, and logistics while letting independent sellers do the rest. In recent years, the company has leaned into recommerce and the circular economy, expanding its focus on pre-owned goods and introducing live shopping events to keep collectors and fashion enthusiasts engaged.
