Description: EBAY eBay

eBay Inc. operates online marketplace platforms that connect buyers and sellers across the United States, the United Kingdom, China, Germany, and other international markets. Its offerings include the ebay.com website, off-platform businesses, and the eBay mobile app suite, which together enable users to list, sell, purchase, and pay for a wide range of products. The company was founded in 1995 and is headquartered in San Jose, California, and went public in 1998.

As a large-cap stock in the Consumer Discretionary sector and Broadline Retail sub-industry, eBay follows a third-party marketplace business model, generating revenue primarily through listing fees, final value fees, and advertising on its platform rather than by holding its own inventory. This asset-light approach distinguishes marketplace operators like eBay from traditional retailers that buy and resell goods.
