MercadoLibre's stock fell 22.78% last year despite record revenue growth of nearly 50%. The decline is due to shrinking operating margins from investments in free shipping, credit expansion, and AI tools, plus external pressures like tax reforms and rising debt. Analysts from Susquehanna and Barclays predict up to 50% stock gains, betting on margin recovery driven by growth in Mercado Pago, advertising, and logistics advantages. The stock trades at 50 times trailing earnings and needs stable margins soon to close the gap to targets around $2,500 per share.
