If You Invested $5,000 in Block in 2015, This Is How Much You Would Have Today
Block (NYSE: SQ) has been one of the most popular -- and volatile -- fintech stocks since the company went public in November 2015. Of course, back then, it was known as Square -- it didn't rebrand to Block until late in 2021.
It started out in 2009 providing its Square card reader, which connected to smartphones to let merchants take point-of-sale card payments anywhere. But it grew into a business that provided a full suite of products for merchants, launched the Cash App for consumers, acquired a bank charter, and got into streaming music, crypto, website development, and buy now, pay later -- among other ventures.
So if you invested $5,000 in Block when it went public, how much would you have today?
