PayPal, Affirm, and SoFi Technologies stocks rose sharply on Monday, rebounding from significant year-to-date declines of 22%, 35%, and 38% respectively. The fintech sector has faced heavy selling in 2026 due to macroeconomic uncertainty and credit risk concerns, but Monday's gains suggest investors see current prices as attractive entry points.
