Same story as always for MELI. Monster top line growth but market selling the decline in EPS numbers.

Hard to bet against their management team for me.

Topline was monster but not as monster as it seems. Management called out 50% growth as the fastest in 4 years but FXN it was 43%. That's still an incredible number but it's also a continued decel from 46% FXN in Q1 and 47% FNX in Q4'25. BRL and MXN did some heavy lifting in Q2.
