Keep This Stock Ticker on Your Watchlist

They’re a private company, but Pacaso just reserved the Nasdaq ticker “$PCSO.”

No surprise the same firms that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo already invested in Pacaso. What is unique is Pacaso is giving the same opportunity to everyday investors. And 10,000+ people have already joined them.

Created a former Zillow exec who sold his first venture for $120M, Pacaso brings co-ownership to the $1.3T vacation home industry.

They’ve generated $1B+ worth of luxury home transactions across 2,000+ owners. That’s good for more than $110M in gross profit since inception, including 41% YoY growth last year alone.

And you can join them today for just $2.90/share. But don’t wait too long. Invest in Pacaso before the opportunity ends September 18.

How to use this

  • Blend growth and income. Pair MSFT or AVGO with TXN/CSCO/QCOM to lift portfolio yield while staying aligned to AI trends.

  • Stage entries around ex‑dates. Avoid chasing the day before; plan multi‑quarter holds so the ex‑date price dip is a non‑event.

  • Favor coverage over headline yield. Lower yield with stronger coverage tends to win over time.

What to watch next

  • Microsoft: A 5%–10% September raise would keep payout near ~25–27% of TTM EPS.

  • Texas Instruments: Late‑Q3 dividend action often arrives alongside buyback updates.

  • Broadcom: Fiscal Q4 outlook and board timing inform December raise odds.
