What to Expect From Baidu, Inc. in 2018
Baidu (NASDAQ: BIDU) is often called the "Google of China" since it controls about 80% of the country's online search market. But its expanding ecosystem also includes various portal sites, cloud services, online-to-offline services, and next-generation platforms for artificial intelligence and connected cars. To better understand where Baidu is headed next year, we should take a closer look at its plans for the future.
Baidu's biggest rival in China is Tencent (NASDAQOTH: TCEHY), which owns WeChat, the most popular messaging app in China. Over the past few years, Tencent has expanded WeChat into a monolithic "super app" for mobile payments, ride hailing, food deliveries, and other services. The growth of that ecosystem could reduce users' dependence on Baidu's search services.
