AI Summary

TrimMedium

ETSY’s long-term uptrend remains intact above the 200-day SMA, but the drop below the 9/20/50 EMAs and the formation of lower highs and lows signals a medium-term bearish posture. A shallow bounce from near-term support has yet to reclaim key moving averages, so selling into rallies around the 9-EMA and 20-EMA region offers the best execution edge while avoiding being caught in a relief run.

Bull points

  • we find that someone who is an app and user produces about 75% more GMS than somebody who's not an app user, so we think having someone on the app is a really valuable thing.
  • We're always looking at how we can add more benefits in the app to make the app more valuable, to make it richer, so you've seen us do things like have app-only specials and sales or to have a first-on-app like certain deals and drops that are specific to the app.
  • when we compare Etsy to our peers, we find that our penetration on Etsy is lower than many peers, so we think that's a gap that we can close.
