MercadoLibre is a leading e-commerce and fintech provider in Latin America, operating a robust online marketplace and a comprehensive digital payments ecosystem. The company leverages its integrated platform to drive scale, enhance user engagement, and expand its share of digital commerce and financial services in the region. Its diversified service offerings and strong logistics network provide a competitive advantage in high-growth emerging markets.
Aubrey Capital Management, a U.K. investment firm, liquidated its entire stake in MercadoLibre, valued at more than $13 million, during the fourth quarter (the three months ending on Dec. 31, 2025). Here’s what investors need to know.
First off, MercadoLibre stock has been a solid performer for years. Since 2023, shares have advanced by 77%; that works out to an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.9%. For context, the S&P 500 has delivered a total return of 75%, equating to a CAGR of 20.4%. Yet, despite this solid run, shares have hit a rough patch over the last six months and have slipped by 11%.
Investor concerns center on the company’s performance. Specifically, MercadoLibre is expanding its logistics network as it faces stiffer competition. As a result, its profitability has slipped in recent quarters, with operating margins falling from nearly 13% to under 10%.
At any rate, MercadoLibre continues to grow. Revenue has increased from $22.4 billion to $26.2 billion over the last 12 months. Therefore, growth-oriented investors may wish to take the stock’s recent decline as an opportunity to buy the dip on this rapidly expanding e-commerce company before its logistics investments begin to pay off.
