The great Latin American titan MercadoLibre (MELI), a creature of e-commerce and fintech, has taken a tumble this week, its stock slumping like a soggy biscuit in a rainstorm, according to the sly whispers of S&P Global Market Intelligence.
This sad spectacle stems from a horde of news outlets and analysts, who have taken to scolding MercadoLibre as Amazon, that gargantuan, gluttonous ogre, prepares to unleash its most fiendish scheme yet upon Brazil-the land where MercadoLibre’s heart beats strongest.
Amazon, that sly fox, has declared a holiday season of mischief, waiving its sticky, gooey fees for new Brazilian merchants who dare to join its realm. A trick, no doubt, to lure the unwary into its web of woe.
The Brazil Bonanza?
Though MercadoLibre has long danced with rivals, none are as fearsome as Amazon, that thunder-footed beast with a penchant for swallowing markets whole.
Yet in Brazil, Amazon is but a plucky, albeit well-armed, mouse facing a labyrinth of giants. MercadoLibre, with its labyrinthine logistics and a kingdom of fintech, is no mere pebble to be trampled.

Over the last decade, MercadoLibre has grown like a magical beanstalk, its value multiplying 24-fold. A feat as improbable as a chicken laying a golden egg.
This marvel has occurred despite the ravenous hordes of:
- Amazon, Walmart, and Costco, creeping into Mexico like a slow, hungry snake.
- Sea Limited‘s e-commerce goblin, Shoppee, spreading its webs in Brazil.
- China’s PDD Holding, Temu, and Shein, flooding Latin America with cheap, glittering trinkets.
Latin America, that land of promise, is a feast for many, and competition is a constant guest. Yet MercadoLibre, with its sprawling, enchanted ecosystem, stands as a fortress against the tide.
Let us watch how Amazon’s holiday gala unfolds, tempting merchants with its shiny baubles. But remember: MercadoLibre, the true king of Latin America, is no mere shadow in the corner.
