BTCCSquare news:

Klarna (KLAR) posted its first billion-dollar revenue quarter in Q4 2025, with $1.08 billion topping estimates of $1.07 billion. Active users grew to 118 million while gross merchandise volume reached $38.7 billion—both exceeding forecasts. Yet shares plunged 22% as transaction margins of $372 million missed expectations for the second consecutive quarter.

The buy-now-pay-later firm's U.S. revenue surged 58% year-over-year, outpacing global growth of 38%. But weaker-than-expected Q1 2026 guidance and margin pressures overshadowed these milestones. Market reaction highlights how fintech valuations now prioritize profitability metrics over top-line growth.

The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
