- Friday, May 17, 11:14 AM Take this one with a grain of salt: an "industry source" claims Baidu (BIDU +1.6%) has reached a deal to buy Sohu's (SOHU +2.5%) Sogou search unit for $2B-$2.5B in cash and shares of Baidu's iQiyi online video unit. Though Sohu is rallying, the entire company still only has a market cap of $2.4B, indicating investors are as skeptical of this report as they were of Qihoo deal reports. Acquiring Sogou would pose integration challenges for Baidu, and (given Baidu's dominant Chinese search share) could also draw a regulatory response. (previous) Comment! [Tech, M&A, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 7, 6:40 AM Baidu (BIDU) says it will pay $370M to buy the online video business of PPStream. The company plans to fold the business into its iQiyi unit. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, April 25, 6:59 AM Baidu's (BIDU) online video unit purchased streaming platform PPStream, according to Chinese media reports. The deal price is thought to be in the $350M to $400M range. By buying PPStream, the company could cut into the online video market share of Youku-Tudou. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, August 20, 2012, 8:22 AM Youku (YOKU -0.1%) and Tudou (TUDO) shareholders approve Youku's all-stock acquisition of Tudou in a deal that combines China's two biggest video Web sites and creates a company with over 300M weekly users. The transaction will increase Youku's lead over rivals Baidu (BIDU) and Tencent, and should generate savings of up to $60M/year. Comment! [M&A, Tech, Consumer]
- Monday, June 18, 2012, 7:54 AM Baidu (BIDU) is in formal talks with UCWeb about buying a stake in the mobile browser firm, according to a WSJ report that backs up chatter that kicked up last week. Speculation has the price tag for UCWeb in the one billion dollar range. Comment! [Global & FX, M&A]
- Friday, June 15, 2012, 5:27 PM Baidu (BIDU) is looking to acquire top Chinese mobile browser UCWeb ... at least according to a badly-translated Chinese article UCWeb itself is promoting. In theory, buying UCWeb, which believed to account for ~1/3 of all Chinese mobile browser pageviews, would make sense for Baidu, given it could boost the company's mobile search and software ambitions. But the nature of this "rumor" makes a heavy dose of salt mandatory. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 2:41 PM Tencent (TCEHY.PK), owner of China's extremely popular QQ instant messaging platform, says it plans to make new acquisitions to lessen its dependence on the online gaming market, where it has a leading share. Many expect the pace of M&A activity among Chinese Internet names to pick up following Youku.com (YOKU) and Tudou's (TUDO) merger. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, March 12, 2012, 4:22 PM With a 36% share of the Chinese online video market, Youku.com (YOKU +27.4%) and Tudou (TUDO +156.5%) will tower over #2 Sohu.com (SOHU) and #3 Baidu (BIDU) following their merger, notes Jiang Zhang. Moreover, the tie-up will help the combined company address rising bandwidth and content costs, and allow Youku to enter the Chinese mobile video market. Zhang speculates smaller players such as Ku6 (KUTV +11.9%) could now be acquisition targets for Sohu or Baidu. 1 Comment [Tech, Quick Ideas, On the Move, M&A]

Dividend Monkey: I don't know anything about ppstream, but it is hard to imagine it would have any effect on the bottom line in the short term -
Dividend Monkey: I like BIDU around 80 for a short term play, if it falls below, I think it could be a trap door. I will have some pretty tight stops

Capitalist Bull: Too late to short AKS at this level. It's been on the list for quite some time. -
madav1138: That's what I thought, I bought AKS recently, the projected growth into 2015 is quite a good case to buy in low.
