When PayPal Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:PYPL) reported its 2016 fourth-quarter earnings there was a lot for investors to like. Revenue and earnings were both up by double-digit percentages, but, more importantly, other business fundamental metrics continued their consistently positive trends: Total active accounts increased 10 to 197 million. Payment transactions per active account are now a shade over 31, a 13 year over year increase.
What might have been most impressive was the continued explosive growth of the P2P payment app, Venmo. For the quarter, Venmo processed $5.6 billion in payment volume, an incredible 126 increase year over year. In December 2016, Venmo crossed the $2 billion total payment volume threshold in a single month for the first time. It was only earlier in 2016 when it crossed the $1 billion threshold in a single month for the first time.

whale spotted in illinois river
A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri.
While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
