New Street: PAGS US (Buy, TP: $75, +30%) STNE US (Neutral, TP: $50, +24%) Brazilian Payments: StoneCo TP cut/Credit remodelled; Sticking with PagSeguro

Perhaps the question we've had the most of late is: "Is it time to buy StoneCo?" The stock has underperformed PagSeguro by >50% YTD on the back of a faltering Credit model and the rising rates cycle. While this is moreoreless in the price, we think, all we have really seen is an excessive premium erode rather than a genuine discount open up on earnings; our target moves from USD82 to USD50 (of which USD16 is the credit cut and USD5 is FX).
