Baird analyst Colin Sebastian said eBay's (EBAY) sale of a majority of its investment stake in MercadoLibre (MELI) will provide eBay with both financial and strategic flexibility. The analyst believes the capital will allow eBay to increase share buybacks, make strategic acquisitions, or expand more aggressively in Latin America under a new strategic agreement with MercadoLibre. Sebastian maintained his Outperform rating and $35 price target on eBay shares.

Jefferies lowered the firm's price target on MercadoLibre to $1,400 from $1,650 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. A recent ramp in investments could pressure EBIT near-term, though continued momentum in GMV, Advertising, and Credit "would keep the long-term story alive," the analyst tells investors in a preview note for the U.S. Internet group.
