What's going on with the Zip share price?
The Zip share price is underperforming today. Though, it hasn't quite regressed to the multi-year low it reached last week.
The stock tumbled to a low of 44 cents on Thursday – the lowest it's been since 2016. Fortunately, the BNPL giant's stock launched 21.5% higher on Friday, leaving it flat with the prior week's close.
Thus, today's dip might be due to price taking following Friday's lift.
Additionally, Zip's tumble comes amid news the BNPL market could be about to get more crowded. Payment solutions provider Revolut has announced plans to launch a BNPL product, initially hitting the market in Ireland.
The Zip share price is joined in the red by BNPL peers Sezzle Inc (ASX: SZL) and Humm Group Ltd (ASX: HUM) today. They have seen their stock slip 1.6% and 2.1% respectively.
But not all ASX BNPL shares are falling on Monday. Stock in ASX 200 payments giant and Afterpay owner Block Inc (ASX: SS2) is currently leaping 6.6%.
Zip's home sector, the S&P/ASX 200 Financials Index (ASX: XFJ), is also lifting 2.6% right now.
