Monday, January 28, 12:11 PM ETBaidu (BIDU +2.6%) is reiterated a Sell by Citi's Muzhi Li, who lowers his price target to $90 amidst increased competition from the likes of Qihoo 360 (QIHU) which has already seized 10% of the search-engine market share. Nomura disagrees, noting Baidu still has an 80% share of the growing market.

I think he's right since Baidu is getting less & less search power in china which drives its advertising revenue source down as Qihoo increases it's search power to get a piece of that pie !
Also important to mention the immense growth of Qihoo that got 10% of the search in only months after its search has launched !!!
Also important to note that it struck advertising deal with Google early this month which was confirmed by Qihoo which was circulated until that confirmation.
Lastly but most importantly to my opinion is that they also have their own advertising agency to develop as a revenue source to make money with less expenses so to optimize their profits & growth !!!
That being said I'm very certain that this make Qihoo a much better investment than Baidu which will only shrink in time and have their power slowly taken as time pass by ... ^_^
Dear Investers
Read Seeking Alpha 1/28/13 See Bidu: What makes Baidu A STRONG BUY, written by Evanti Kurniawan. She explains everything. ( As a report should be written.)
I'm thinking that Citi's Muzhi Li is just trying to get Qihu's stk. price up to benefit his own investment on qihu.
