Surprise, surprise: In a nation of credit card holders, Visa stock is doing just fine.

Visa has launched a money movement partnership with cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase. The collaboration connects Coinbase to the Visa Direct network, letting the exchange's customers deposit funds into their accounts via eligible Visa debit cards, according to a Tuesday (Oct. 29) news release.

Although the revenue and EPS for Visa (V) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended September 2024, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.

Visa will reportedly lay off 1,400 employees and contractors, including about 1,000 in technology positions, by the end of the year. The company aims to streamline its international business with these cuts, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported Tuesday (Oct. 29).
Shares of Visa Inc. rise more than 2% in the extended session Tuesday as company sees “stable growth” across its business.
Roughly 1,000 of the cuts are expected to eliminate technology positions, while most of the rest will focus on merchant sales and global digital partnerships roles.
