Mastercard, Inc. is a technology company, which engages in the provision of payment solutions for the development and implementation of credit, debit, prepaid, commercial, and payment programs through its brands including Mastercard, Maestro, and Cirrus. It also offers cyber and intelligence solutions. The company was founded in November 1966 and is headquartered in Purchase, NY.

Mastercard, a leader in payment networks, offers solid long-term growth prospects, especially with its potential entry into the Chinese market. Risks include regulatory pressures and emerging technologies like blockchain, but these are manageable and do not significantly impact the company's outlook. The current valuation is demanding; a 10% stock drop would present a great entry point, making it a strong candidate for my Watchlist. My recommendation is "Hold".
