MELI
MercadoLibre, Inc.
MELI (MercadoLibre, Inc.) has a reliability-weighted signal score of 59/100 on StockMarketSignals, based on 7 finance YouTubers over a rolling 14-day window. The score reflects how strongly tracked creators are currently bullish or bearish on MELI, weighted by each channel's reliability.
Why analysts are watching it
Analysts are closely watching MercadoLibre (MELI) due to its strong growth and dominant position in Latin American e-commerce and fintech. On June 25, 2026, Everything Money noted that Michael Burry is buying MELI, describing it as "basically the Amazon of Latin America," a sentiment echoed by Value Investing with Sven Carlin, Ph.D. on July 3, 2026, who also mentioned Burry's interest and the huge growth potential given low e-commerce penetration in Latin America. Daniel Pronk, in his August 6, 2026, video, highlighted the company's remarkable revenue acceleration, with Brazil revenue growing 50% year-over-year, and stressed that MELI is the only company growing revenue by over 30% for 30+ consecutive quarters while maintaining profitability. Couch Investor, across multiple videos, including one on June 15, 2026, expressed confidence in the "worldclass company" and its ability to continue growing above 20% for "many many years." Despite robust growth, the company is currently sacrificing short-term profitability for aggressive investment into its business, as noted by Daniel Pronk on August 6, 2026, and Couch Investor on June 6, 2026, but management believes these investments have a clear path to long-term profitability. Investors should be aware of the inherent risks associated with the Latin American market and its loan book, as mentioned by The Patient Investor on August 7, 2026.

"Then lastly, we have Marcado Libé still around the same area, $1,844 shares. As long as we are above $1,800, that's fine by me. Make that your support area and then we can challenge 1,900 2,000 later down the line."

"I'm not really bearish on Melly. I think it's presenting a great setup in general. If you're willing to take on, you could say the Latin American risk, you're willing to take on the loan book, you're willing to take on all those risks as a competitive, you know, landscape relative to maybe Amazon as an alternative, then mele it's a it's a great investment. It's well priced for a lot of those things and it's primed to do really really well."

"So again, as a long-term shareholder, this is actually what I want them to do is reinvest the cash flows to capture a significant amount of growth. But let's continue on through my screenshots. Now, moving on through the shareholder letter, they wrote, "Users are transacting more frequently with items per buyer rising 14% year-over-year." This was led by Brazil, where growth was 19% year-over-year."

"Marcato Libre's business again is continuing to accelerate even though it is scaling and is massive now. All right. Now, we are going to do a rapid fire from some of the key charts from the presentation. This first one shows us that unique buyers are up 26% year-over-year to 89.3 million and the growth rate is remaining around 26%."

"And overall, I do think that Marcato Libre's loss rates on their loan portfolio are down and still looking good. Moving on to the next screenshot. This one shows us that the operating margin is down to 6.7% this quarter and declined by 0.2% quarter-over-arter. The net margin is also down to 4.6%."

"And I believe that this is extremely bullish for Marcato Libre. Marcato Libre's Brazil revenue hit $19 billion in the trailing 12 months and grew 50% year-over-year. This is the fastest growth rate that Marcato Libre has seen in Brazil since the second quarter of 2024 and it has been consistently accelerating since the third quarter of 2025."

"Marcato Libre is the only company in the entire stock market to grow revenue by over 30% for over 30 quarters consecutively. There is no other company growing this fast and this consistently in the entire stock market."

"So, Marcato Libre and Latin America, the best is coming. And that is why they have so much conviction on investing right now to capture as much growth as possible because they believe that there is decades of runway left ahead of them. And right now is the time to build out the moat and capture as much opportunity as they possibly can. And I agree."

"Moving on, this one shows us that gross merchandise volume is steady at 36% year-over-year growth on a consolidated basis. However, it actually accelerated to 39% in Brazil, which I think is very bullish because Brazil is Marcato Libre's largest market by far. So, Marcato Libre is seeing an acceleration in its largest market."

"And we can see that the owner's underlying free cash flow potential of Marcato Libre is now at $7.45 billion in the trailing 12 months. And in my opinion, this gives us a ballpark as to how much true cash flow Marcato Libresy's business is producing right now before it invests so much money into growth."

"However, income from operations came in at 683 million with a 6.7% margin. So, the operating margin is still being compressed from investments. Net income also came in at 466 million with only a 4.6% margin. Total payment volume came in at 101 billion though, which is up 56% year-over-year and on an FX neutral basis. Gross merchandise volume also accelerated to 21.9 billion, growing 44% year-over-year and 36% on an FX neutral basis. Then Marcato Libre wrote, "Net revenue and financial income gre"

"So, the story of this quarter is that Marcato Libre is continuing to sacrifice profitability and margins in the short term to invest aggressively into growing the business. Now, this would concern me a lot more if Marcato Libre wasn't growing its revenues 50% year-over-year and seeing its revenue growth rates actually accelerate despite it producing over $10 billion in quarterly revenue."

"And even right now after the selloff that the market is seeing, it's still trading for about 29.7 times EBIT. This is while the margins are being compressed and people are doubting"
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"Marcato Libre is growing 50% while maintaining profitability and steady margins. Not even the hyperscalers are maintaining positive profitability and free cash flow while trying to produce around 20% topline growth. And Marcato Libre again is maintaining profitability while growing the top line 50% year-over-year."

"Marcato Libre stock is down 7% on the day after they reported their earnings yesterday after the close and the stock is still down about 31% from its all-time highs. And as promised, I'm going to be going through the earnings report and sharing my thoughts because I do own quite a bit of Marcato Libre and the TLDDR is that I did buy a couple of more shares after the report because I think that the sell-off isn't necessarily warranted."

"But most importantly, he says that every single investment has a very clear path to profitability over the longer term. So the margins are being compressed today, but he is clearly telling the market that he believes that the future profits of the business are going to be massive. Lastly, he said that operating leverage actually increased quarter over-arter and they expanded the operating margin by over 2% again quarter over quarter, but then they chose to reinvest that expanded margin back into"

"So despite Brazil being Marcato Libre's largest market by far, it is still growing 50% year-over-year and continuing to accelerate. In fact, if we take a look at a quarterly basis, this quarter specifically had the fastest year-over-year growth rate since the second quarter of 2022 in Brazil. That is how much the Brazilian revenue is accelerating."

"Now you can speculate as to what this wording change means but I do think that it is kind of a hint and important and in my opinion it could be suggesting that Marcato Libre believes that their margins are going to expand from here because they're saying the best is now here. It's not coming, but we're seeing the best of this opportunity. So, I think that this is bullish and it seems like the management is continuing to be bullish as well."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"So I believe that Marcato Libre if they chose to reexpand their margins could actually grow EBIT by 40% annually over the next 3 years. So now let's talk about the price to EBIT ratio of 30. Well, if we take a look at Marcato Libre's historical median since 2023, it has been 36.3."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"However, I believe that the net interest margin after losses hit a bottom in the first quarter and is now going to start to expand going forward from here. Moving on to the next screenshot. This one shows us the non-performing loans and the provisions coverage that Marcato Libra has for those non-performing loans."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"Now, I think that the sheer acceleration and significant growth to the top line at this scale is showing that these investments are actually paying off. And as a shareholder over the longer term, I want them to be doing this because as the revenue continues to scale, then when they do focus on profitability and expanding the margins, then we could see profits absolutely explode because they'll be working with so much more revenue to capture profits from."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"Marcato Libre's fintech revenue on a trailing 12 months basis is also accelerating and hit 50% year-over-year growth in this quarter. So the fintech revenue is massive and actually almost the size of new bank now. So now let's quickly talk about Marcato Libre's valuation."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"This immediately leads me to believe that Marcato Libre stock is significantly undervalued today. However, the owner's earnings are not true earnings of the business right now and it's not wise of me to expect the market to value Marcato Libre off of potential owner's earnings."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"I mean, think about it. This is a business doing about $40 billion in annualized revenue now and it's still growing 50% year-over-year. That suggests to me that again the runway is massive and this business could probably be producing well above 20% annual growth rates for the next 5 to 10 years. Then the last thing that I want to highlight is that Marcado Libre wrapped up the shareholder letter by saying the best is coming."
— I just Bought $5,000 More of This Stock
"So, Marcato Libre's fintech business is continuing to explode. MAUs are up 38% year-over-year. AUM is up 68% and their credit portfolio has grown by 75% year-over-year. their NPL ratios, which is essentially their loss ratios, are also near historic lows. So, they're able to significantly scale their credit portfolio while also keeping their loss rates near lows, which is kind of unique because typically with a lending business, when you scale your portfolio so rapidly, you see your losses spike"

"So what the CFO is saying here is that they're continuing to invest so aggressively because they're seeing strong growth to both revenue and profits. He also says that every investment they make and the capital that they deploy is measured against strict and clear metrics and as long as they are hitting those metrics, they will continue to invest."

I think Amazon is up something like 40% over the past 5 years. And Marcato Libre is flat or even down over the past 5 years.
