BIDU
Feb 24, 2017 | 07:36 EDT
Stifel analyst George Askew says that Baidu's search business reached a positive turning point in Q4, as the business' revenue and customer count both rebounded. However, the analyst says that the doubling of content costs at iQiyi "more than offsets" search's positive impact on the company's margins. He expects Baidu's overall margins to decline this year, but he says that the company has a number of "compelling opportunities," including newsfeed and AI. The analyst keeps a $220 price target and a Buy rating on the shares.
