WB will report 4Q23 results on March 14th before the markets open with a 7am ET conference call. We are neutral on WB’s 4Q23 revenue performance, but the margin is likely to be better as spending is not aggressive. China's economy in 2023 showed unexpected slow growth, which is likely to be reflected in WB’s 4Q23 earnings. However, it also provides a low comparison base for 2024. WB is likely to benefit from such a situation. China's economy has its resilience, and it is on its way to gradual r...

We are lowering our estimates for 2Q22 to reflect the negative impact from China’s zero-COVID lockdowns, particularly in Shanghai. The lockdowns have caused a slowdown in China’s economy, which worsened in March April and May. WB has many key accounts in Shanghai. We believe these accounts are not optimistic for their ad spending. WB is also impacted by the depreciation of China’s currency. However...
