S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) closed at 7,561, down 0.41%, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) finished at 25,139, down 0.90%. Among digital banking and consumer finance technology peers, MercadoLibre (NASDAQ:MELI) closed at $1,491.49, up 1.11%, and PayPal Holdings (NASDAQ:PYPL) closed at $59.26, up 1.65%, as investors weighed fintech earnings strength against a softer broader market.
Nu missed Wall Street's earnings and revenue targets, but that didn't matter. The market focused on the company's ambitious growth plans instead, applauding Nubank's launch in the U.S.
CEO David Vélez underscored Nubank's broad appeal with fee-free services and mobile applications for every product.
"Now we're taking the same model beyond Latin America," he said on the earnings call.
