EBay’s profit may miss estimates, analyst says

From Bloomberg News

EBay Inc. may report lower-than-expected fourth-quarter earnings because of fewer listings, said Safa Rashtchy, an analyst at Piper Jaffray & Co.

Excluding certain items, profit may be as much as 2 cents a share, less than the 28-cent average estimate of analysts, Rashtchy said.

Shares of San Jose-based EBay fell $1.08 to $29.70.
