Q: Hi 5i,

MELI has had a sharp decline in its share price the past two days and I can't seem to find any news that would explain it.

I know.... I cringe when I see a question about "why did this stock price drop" and usually the answer is "because the market is crazy and doesn't have to make sense short term".

I am asking this question because when I take a look at what I would consider MELI's competitors/similiar business, like AMZN and SHOP, their stock prices are moving in a positive or at least stable direction. Can't help but feel as though I am missing some key info.

I have held the stock for over 5 years and intend to hold it for at least another 2-3years. Still have confidence in the Business model going forward.

Maybe I'm just letting the market noise finally get to me.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you,

Greg C.
