Investors in PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) have had plenty to be thankful for. Since the company's much publicized split from eBay, PayPal has embarked on a multitude of partnerships across the financial spectrum, with banks, credit card companies, and even tech giants.

Those deals have helped PayPal's performance surge, most recently growing revenue by 24% year over year, and reporting net income that climbed 33% compared to the prior-year quarter. Those results have driven PayPal's stock, which has gained more than 120% over the past three years, to more than triple eBay's gains, and four times the increase of the broader market.

In the last several weeks, though, PayPal has been on a spending spree, snapping up companies to augment its growing payments empire. Investors might be surprised to know that the company has made three acquisitions in just over a month. Let's look at the latest additions and see what insight they give us into PayPal's strategy going forward.

Hot Heal Care Stocks To Own Right Now: Royal Gold Inc.(RGLD)

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Reuben Gregg Brewer]

  Although gold streaming is something of a niche in the precious metals market, the largest competitors have been in the business since the 1980s,�while new entrants are showing up as well (including hedge funds, private equity, and pension funds). Most investors, however, should probably stick with the largest, easiest to trade, and longest-tenured companies for now. Here are the top five.

  Company Market Cap Dividend Yield Franco-Nevada (NYSE:FNV) $13 billion 1.3% Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE:WPM) $9 billion 1.7% Royal Gold (NASDAQ:RGLD) $6 billion 1.2% Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd. $1.6 billion 1.6% Sandstorm Gold Ltd. $800 million N/A Franco-Nevada

  The largest streaming company by market cap is Franco-Nevada. As noted above, it has investments in nearly 300 mines, 50 of which are producing. However, it has taken diversification further than its peers by investing in around 80 oil and natural gas assets (57 producing), following the same basic business model. It's not as pure a play on metals, but if you are looking for diversification, that non-precious-metals exposure is an interesting addition to the mix. That said, gold provides roughly 70% of its revenue, with silver at 15%, and oil and gas at just 7% (the rest is, effectively, "other"), meaning that gold is still the big driver of performance here. The company has increased its dividend annually for 10 consecutive years.

  This, however, is where streaming company Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE:WPM)�and its peers Royal Gold (NASDAQ:RGLD) and Franco-Nevada (NYSE:FNV)�come into play. Streaming companies provide cash up front to miners for the right to buy gold and silver in the future at reduced rates. Often miners use the money to build new mines. Wheaton provided $625 million in cash to Barrick for the development of Pascua-Lama. That is just one of 10 development projects in which Wheaton has invested. Its portfolio also contains 17 operating mines.�
