Mercadolibre (MELI) va más elevados?
July 30, 2009
We recently added a long position of MELI at a 1.5% allocation (max) with an entry price of $ 28.14.
Description
MercadoLibre Inc. (MELI) operates an online trading site for the Latin American markets. The Company’s website allows businesses and individuals to list items and conduct sales and purchases online in either a fixed-price or auction format. MercadoLibre offers classified advertisements for motor vehicles, vessels, aircraft, real estate and services, and offers online payment services.
MELI is a Latin version of eBay (EBAY). The difference is that this company has a much better outlook and it is in the initial growth phase. So, we may think of it as a young eBay before it got caught up in Skype, PayPal and other bureaucratic red tape.

President Obama’s Hat in Hand to China?
July 28, 2009
President Obama spoke this morning about the relationship of the U.S. and China. Perhaps it was a simple olive branch as we have strained relationships of late. But, China has been flapping their mighty economic wings as they have shown an amazing amount of effort and success with their recent stimulus package.
A question that needs to be asked is whether President Obama is looking to hop on the China gravy train. It sure seems so as the speech was both an inferred apology to and request of China. If so, we much wonder if the speech was more of pleading for help as both economies are so tightly integrated.
