The Quick Baidu Business Model: China, Emerging Markets, Alibaba, And Search Engines

"Baidu is giving small investors an app to help them evaluate stocks in the Chinese, Hong Kong and U.S. equity markets. The company claims this new app will use big data analytics to predict how stocks, sectors and markets may perform. The app will use information from news, market data and Baidu search data to provide its analysis. It will, however, not provide trading recommendations. The app, called the Baidu StockMaster, is expected to generate considerable interest among small investors." - Forbes
